Looks nice I thought I'd try this out as I have some of these displays too.
Can you advise what/where "helper.h" is?
I seem to be missing something

Cheers

This is a great project using the ESP8266-01. Please don't worry about the code the main thing is that it works!
Cheers,

My apologies, I added and removed helper, and since I build outside Arduino IDE (Notepad++), compiler didn't complain about missing file. It was to figure out module restart mode - especially to know if WDT kicked us out. I have uploaded it to github.

I added a BMP180 to mine friday and 3d printed a case but having issues with the heating from the esp01 warming the case and giving me readings 4c or so high

I had issue with ESP-07 heating up too. I added vent holes and changed operation mode from AP+STA to STA to enable LIGHT_SLEEP_T to happen. It runs a lot cooler now. My plan B was to switch Radio ON/OFF using deepsleep API, but so far I don't think that is needed.
