Hi @mdma (Do you prefer Matt or Matthew?)  
I rolled back to 0.4.4 and doing some testing now.  
Another footnote- I’m not sure if I may have been originally running v0.4.4-rc.2-photon.bin  
Would the Web IDE bump it up to v0.4.4-photon if I had 0.4.4 selected in the build dropdown a few weeks ago?

Filtering? Not sure what you mean, but these issues just started this past week. Over the past few months I would occasionally get a false high-temp (maybe once in 2 weeks), whereas now I’m getting them randomly every 5 minutes to 3 hours.

\*should this conversation be moved to a different heading?
