Tinkerman @ tinkerman.cat tipped us with his latest project. It's a laundry notification system that will message you when it's finished. I often forget my wet clothing in the washer and after a day they really smell… so I thought about monitoring my washer and get a notification...

Johan discuss about ISM/Wifi bridge using RFM69, code and schematics is available on github. The ESP8266 has taken the maker community by storm and the hype is well deserved. Before the ESP we had the HopeRF ISM radio RFM12 and its successor RFM69. So is the ESP8266 an RFM69...

A ESP8266 temperature logger project from Facelesstech: I decided to use the esp-01 module because I only need 2 GPIO pins since I was using the DS18B20 temp sensor and the WS2812 LED. This made the hardware really cheap and easy to reproduce too. I normally use FTDI boards when it...

Pete show us how to upgrade your ESP8266 with 32Mbit memory chip. Some time ago I passed comment in here about converting an ESP-01 to 32Mb  (or 4MB).  And here it is in the flesh – a 32Mb ESP-01 – and also – at last – Sonoff Upgrades. Now, why would you want to do all...

educ8s.tv uploaded a new tutorial on their youtube channel. In this video we are going to learn how to send email using an ESP8266 based board like the Wemos D1. As you are going to find out it is very easy and it won't take us more than 10 minutes. Having a WiFi enabled board,...

Johan Kanflo’s Esprog pogo pin connector: The FTDI connector can be found on just about any ESP8266 design. If you are building a gadget to be deployed somewhere and not a full blown development board, the FTDI connector is somewhat overkill. And it is quite large. A few pins...

A how-to on building an ESP8266 based plane spotter from Daniel Eichorn: In order to get this project running you’ll need the following list of hardware: NodeMCU ESP8266 module or Wemos D1 Mini 0.96″ SSD1306 OLED display A few connectors and USB Wire Or order a...

educ8s.tv has a new video discussing about the Wemos D1 mini board. In this video we are going to take a first look at the Wemos D1 mini board. The new impressive ESP8266 based board. It is very small in size, very inexpensive but very powerful! If you have watched some of my...
