I'm trying to use an external power source with 6V (10A, so plenty). I've managed to compile the binary myself and it works fine out of the box.

Now I'm trying to disable the voltage check by uncommenting this line and commenting the line above.

Compilation and flashing works as expected after that change, however I can still not use the blind with the external power source, but it continues to work with the battery.

Is there another place in the code that I need to edit?

Thank you very much again for this amazing project and your continued help!

After digging more it seems like the setting is read from EEPROM. I'm not sure what the best way is to disable this. I noticed that there is a setting READ_DEFAULT_SPEED_FROM_EEPROM, but I couldn't find anything similar for the other settings.

Should I modify the firmware to add similar variables for other settings or is there a better way?
