Every couple of months or so, the values of my IBS-TH2 are freezing. The phone app can still communicate with it. Batteries are still good. I have to remove the batteries and put them back to get the sensor back working normaly. I bought and installed the inkbird outside last fall (2022). This is the second time I get the behaviour. I do not use an inkbird gateway. But I have a custom proxy made with an ESP32 dev board. Thanks. ---

Just froze again yesterday, march the 5th, 2023… Last time I replaced the batterie for lithium one. It still shows 100% battery level in the Inkbird App. I can connect from the App to the inkbird sensor but values are frozen… Cannot get it back to normal unless I remove and put back the batteries… I’m puzzled… ---
