+  You can force the device into ``configuration mode`` while measuring gravity. This is useful when calibrating the device so you dont needs to wait for the device to wake up and push the data. The entire calibration

+Battery life
+------------

+I'm currently measuring battery life of v0.5 but previous versions have been able to measure gravity for a 2-3 weeks without issues. Using 900 seconds as interval.

 The typical runtime in a measurement cycle is approx 2 seconds and in some cases it can take up to 6-8 seconds but this is mainly related to establishing the WIFI connection. So stable wifi is 
 essential for long batterylife. Out of the 2 seconds of run-time the major time is spent on gyro readings (1.3s) and temperature measurements of (0.6s) so using the gyro sensor for measureing
