Ai-Light RGBW LED Wi-Fi Light Bulbs with MQTT (ESP8266)

From nathan.chantrell.net 4 years ago in BlogsFeatured

H801 Wi-Fi RGBW LED Controller with MQTT (ESP8266)

From nathan.chantrell.net 4 years ago in BlogsFeatured

From nathan.chantrell.net 4 years ago in BlogsFeatured

USB Transceiver for 433MHz PT2262 devices

From nathan.chantrell.net 4 years ago in BlogsFeatured

I picked this rather obscure USB device up from Banggood for only £6.69, it can receive and transmit codes for PT2262, PT2260, PT2264, PT2240, EV1527, HS2303-PT and the many compatible devices which means it will work with a huge number of cheap 433MHz devices...

From nathan.chantrell.net 5 years ago in BlogsFeatured

Here are two similar but also rather different WiFi controlled mains switching relay modules that both use the ESP8266 WiFi SoC. Both come with a nice case, can be reprogrammed with your own firmware and are exceedingly cheap for what you...
