Hi!
In my channel (https://thingspeak.com/channels/1301128) i use a chart, a gauge and a nummeric display. All show the same data. Sometimes the Gauge shows 10 Volts (the minimum) the other two wigeds report the correct value. I have tested with Chrome, Edge and IE in there actual Versions. When I push reload to refresh the page it is reproducable in at least 1 of 10 times.
Whats wrong?
What can I do to work around this problem?
Any help is weolcome?
Thanks Andreas

That is an intersting result. I appreciate that you called it a phenomenon, it definitely sounds more ecxiting that way. I would look at your gage update time (in the settings), and also make sure the page is refreshed and you are logged in. If you have a stale browser window that is logged out, the data may not be recent.
Would you say this issue is recent, or has it been ongoing for some time?

I suspect this is on account of a slow internet connection. The gauge needs to make a request back to the server to update its value. With a slow connection, that response time can be slow hence updating the gauge could be delayed.
