MY ESP-01 gets really really hot when the wifi connection to the router is lost .... Is it normal ?

It might be connected to a common ground and shorts out when the pin goes HIGH.

Some wifi a day, keeps the doctor away!

I have the same with my two ESP8266-03. They got hot very quickly. All GPIO's have pullup of 10k.
At the first one WIFI is no more possible.
At the second one TxD seems destroyed.
Anyone an idea?
