looks like delay up to 30 seconds is OK - >= 30 and the wdt error occurs

Why did you need ESPtool? The esptool binary which doesn't need Python is already bundled with the IDE. You can select the serial port and click "upload", that should work right from the IDE.
Regarding the WDT issue for interval >60 seconds, let me check. Might be some keep-alive issue. How are you setting the interval, exactly?

I thought I needed esptool because the github instructions said so.
I followed the trail to find the PubSubClient api, that's been helpful.
I'm setting keep alive timeout in PubSubClient.h
#define MQTT_KEEPALIVE = 600
That seems to be OK, it seems to be the WDT that's unhappy.
I have worked around by some nested for loops with delay(10000) but I'd like to know how to clear or reset WDT anyway.
Thanks again

When I try to flash the example I get this error:
Uploading 36000 bytes from /var/folders/40/yc3_myl96nx8r1qjdktqx6g00000gn/T/build48107630783144789.tmp/mqtt_test.cpp_00000.bin to flash at 0x00000000
error: failed reading byte
warning: espcomm_cmd: cant receive slip payload data
warning: espcomm_send_command(FLASH_DOWNLOAD_BEGIN) failed
What might be going wrong? I've previously succesfully flashed the same ESP with the Python esptool.
