Bridge is restarting every 15minutes

[nhulsch]

Hey all,
when the bridge is not paired with tibber and running in local mode only it is restarting every 15 minutes and the LED is flashing in all colors.
Does anyone know how this behavior can be changed? I've tried to play with the watchdog and mqtt parameters but had no luck.

Best regards,
Nils

no clue - but why you want to run an "unpaired bridge" anyhow?

[nhulsch]

just for reading the values of the meter as the pulse is imo the best on the market with their own radio protocol to the reader. the average month price is also better for me than the hourly, so its not paired with tibber

[marq24]

but you have paired the 'pulse IR reading head' with the 'bridge' ?! (no clue how this can be done without the TibberApp - and without beeing tibber customer)

[nhulsch]

yes, head is paired with bridge. you can either pair the node in the webinterface or do it with the tibberapp but remove the bridge afterwards from your account (i have done the latter)

so basically "all" is working - except that after 15min the bridge starting a light-show?

[nhulsch]

basically its working yes, sometimes the homeassistant addon receives a 404 but I think thats because of the startup progress. i just like to have things working properly and not rebooting all the time as i also don't know if its good for the lifetime of the esp.

Any news on this @nhulsch ? I am in the same boat and would love to use the Pulse purely local without any App in the background.

Nothing new on the reboot "issue" but the integration handles that fine. The 404 issues i described in other comments are because of a faulty meter (needs to be replaced)
