#43810 Hello everyone,

I'm working on a project that uses ESP8266- 01, it is a wearable device , therefore I need to save power as much as I can, so I will use the deep-sleep mode when there is not need for transmitting .

I know there is a way of putting the ESP8266 in deep-sleep through AT+GLSP, but this AT command I have to specify a time for the radio wake up.

What I really wanna do is basically put the radio at deep-sleep mode and eventually when I need to transmit something I awake the radio. Dos anyone know how could I do it? I was wondering if I could configure a interrupt to awake up the radio and then after transmission get back to deep-sleep mode.

Anyway, I appreciate any advice. Thank you. :D
