#77627 Hi professional guys,
I'm new to esp8266 and would ask for your help.

I have a zigbee sensor that runs on a coin battery (motion detector), I want to be able to disconnect the power to the sensor on specific days for 24 hours every time.

I thought of having an esp8266 wakeup from a deep sleep every 24 hours and communicate with an external service (HASS.IO) to check if to power off the zigbee sensor or not.

My limitation is battery life.
I want to have the esp8266 use a coin battery for a few months like my motion detector does.

Any suggestions or insights on how to design this circuit?

Thank you
