I read it , and now I guess it "save" me the data.
3 questions:
1. what is the limit of sapce I can use for this ?
2. lest say the device work for 2 hours,I got 100 entries - then the battery is unplug.
  is the data saved somewhere? or it got lost?
3. let say that I want to transfer the data to my PI ,
  how do I do this?
  what do I need to write on the PI side ,in order to read the data and then delete the device log?
Thanks ,

If you follow the instructions for RAM, it gets lost. If you follow the instruction for Flash, it isn't.

let say that I want to transfer the data to my PI

You just need an app that'll read the CSV data output by that code and do something with it

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
