Hello

 TP> This is a bit of a puzzle. My oil sensor stopped transmitting last
 TP> night. I replaced the batteries just now and its working again. The
 TP> voltage from is 3 x AA supply had dropped to 4.2V. This is supposed to
 TP>  be enough to work a PICO W off? And IIRC on test it worked down to
 TP>  around 3.8V or so.

How did you check voltage? On working device, or on batteries itself?
One of batteries may be depleted more than others and whole pack may give less current
than usual.

Best regards, Nikita.
