Is it possible to disable wifi at boot? And what does espruino do differently that causes wifi to use so much power that it triggers the brownout detector? As I said before, I have used this same setup before with Arduino and Micropython and never had problems with power, even with a high load as I mentioned in my previous reply.

I know about those posts, but did you read my post? I have not had any power problem with this board running Micropython and regular Arduino code with the OLED Screen fully on and while connected to a WiFi Access Point. Meanwhile, with Espruino, I flash the firmware, without any of my code running, no displays, no wireless connections, it triggers the brownout detector. Is Espruino really that power-hungry? Just running the Espruino console requires more power than running a bunch of Micropython code, a display, and wifi at the same time?

I'm trying to use Espruino on the ESP32 Heltec WiFI Kit 32 Board. But after flashing the board, the board keeps restarting, saying brownout detector was triggered.
Usually when I plug the board in the console would show up and work, but after a few seconds, the brownout detector would get triggered and start boot looping.Here is a snippet of the serial console output:

Previously, I was using Micropython and was able to run the OLED display and connect to a wifi network simultaneously with no power problems. What could be causing this?
