I am trying to send 3 variables - temperature, humidity, and absolute humidity, every 60 seconds.

But when I log in to view my data, they're all over the place. Sometimes they're exactly once a minute. Other times they're spaced by 1, 2, or even 5 minutes. 1 minute and 41 seconds. 2 minutes and 13 seconds. There's no rhyme or reason to it, it's just random.

I'm pretty sure it's not my hardware (a Particle Photon) or my code, since I'm also posting to Blynk and Ubidots once every 60 seconds, and they work perfectly. I wanted to switch to Phant, since it is free whereas the other two are paid/monetized, but not if I can't keep nice consistent spacing intervals of my data.
