Can a Picaxe (28X1) be safely left with the reset pin pulled to ground for quite some time (days)?
I'm running short on space on the usable surfaces of the 'box' that contains the current project, and one means of turning the thing off is just to latch the reset switch. I've looked through the forum, the manuals and the PIC16F886 datasheet, but this isn't mentioned, leading me to hope that this is not going to cause a problem. (Of course, it might not be mentioned because this is a stupid plan.)
