BLE on T-display ESP32 runs out of memory

[puterboy]

Thanks. I spent the better part of the day working on ways to reduce memory but ending up giving up.

Instead, I attached an i2c 1602 two-line LCD display and got that working.
Memory and cpu speed were still a bit tight but I got it working now smoothly without issue.

I posted the code to:

ESPHome config to read from PC-60FW bluetooth Pulse Oximeter and display locally

The following config.yaml interfaces to a bluetooth wireless PC-60FW Pulse Oximeter (I bought mine for about $16 on Aliexpress) The config: Works with a standard ESP32-devkit device Creates 2 new sensor entities: sensor.pc_60fw_o2sat sensor.pc_60fw_pulse Displays the O2Sat & Pulse (plus current time and connected time) on a 2-line i2C 1602 display The sampling and display update time is set to 1-second but it can be changed via the substitution variable update_interval The script connect…

By all means, if you think you can get this working on a T-display, then I am happy to try. But meanwhile i at least have a reasonable and simple working solution.

Thanks!!!
