BTW for my firmware I use the esp-open-sdk, so that's not the problem.

Had a long post here, realized I completely misread the schematic, and a long post I made was totally irrelevant to this sutaiton. :oops:

And now I can't figure out how to delete a post. Sorry for spamming up the topic!

For proper EMI-decoupling, don't just throw in more uF's, especially if that means using a electrolytic capacitor. Better add something with an extremely low ESR, like a ceramic or polyester capacitor. It doesn't have to be large. IMHO the best is to add a combo of a tantalum capacitor (large capacity and low ESR) and a solid state capacitor (like ceramic) to stretch out the remaining very high frequency noise.

limpkin, can you enable any of the LED channels using GPIO? Just turning it on, without any PWM. Does that work?

Also, when you say it reboots - do the LEDs flash on at all, or is there no visual response, and the esp8266 sends a WDT reboot error.

is it always the WDT performing a reboot?
