if a radio (wifi) device has an antenna interface I would always connect the antenna, even if there is very good wifi coverage. Otherwise there may be a risk to harm the wifi radio transmitter/amplifier because of energy reflected to the sender.
@@fixtse. if we measure the inner resistance into the antenna interface of the device (which is always the driver of a radio amplifier) as well as the inner resistance of the antenna both values must match in order to avoid power reflections. all design engineers on our globe are using 50 Ohms as this matching resistance. Search YT for „why 50 Ohms?“. have a great day.
Hi, thank you for the expectations 🙌😅 (it's a double edged sword, as everything good in life). Do you think it lacks more on the "What do I do with all this information" side? or just in general the video doesn't live up to the title expectations? Understanding your point of view helps me take a closer look at the things that I can improve for future videos, that's why I appreciate and encourage any feedback.
Nice subject 👍
Waiting for an ESPhome version.
I can make a version using openhardware with esphome, i'll add it to my todo list

interesting, I didn't know that, thank you, i'll investigate more about it.

It's not as in depth as or innovative as I have become to expect from this channel 😢
