Steve Rodgers writes: Here’s my latest project. Its an AC energy metering board using an Atmel 90E24 energy metering chip. The board can either take an ESP8266-12 and run a native C application, or the ESP8266-12 can be omitted, and an external microcontroller can be used to talk to the Atmel 90E24 energy metering chip.

WiFi-based Weather Forecast and Clock
https://www.electronics-lab.com/wifi-based-weather-forecast-and-clock/
by soniktech.com: This project is a stopgap on my way to building a ground-up “Internet of Things” base design around the ESP8266 SoC WiFi solution. I started by taking a few nixie tubes I’ve had lying around from a past project, and connecting them to a Nixie Power supply I found on ebay. After making […]
Transparent ESP8266 WiFi-to-Serial Bridge
https://www.electronics-lab.com/transparent-esp8266-wifi-to-serial-bridge/
jeelabs @ github.com has written a firmware for ESP8266 that enables it to talk to RS232 of your mcu via WiFi and also programm your mcu via WiFi. He writes: This firmware connects an attached micro-controller to the internet using a ESP8266 Wifi module. It implements a number of features: transparent bridge between Wifi and […]
A Connected Lamp to Wake Me Up
https://www.electronics-lab.com/a-connected-lamp-to-wake-me-up/
Limpkin has modified his IKEA lamp to use 10W LEDs. So for some reason I bought 2 IKEA lamps at a flea market. As IKEA furniture has a long history of being hacker-friendly, I figured they shouldn’t be an exception to the rule. My plan? Fit a few 10W RGB LEDs in there together with […]
Sit.Up – alerts the user if sitting to long
https://www.electronics-lab.com/sit-up-alerts-the-user-if-sitting-to-long/
electrobob.com has build a device that alerts you if sitting to long: Sitting for long periods has become more common in today’s jobs causing serious health issues. Unfortunately the plethora of activity trackers fail to address the issue: being rather active while sitting does not provide a good picture of the amount of time spent […]
ESP8266 touchscreen WiFi light controller and clock
https://www.electronics-lab.com/esp8266-touchscreen-wifi-light-controller-and-clock/
Spiros Papadimitriou has build a WiFi light controller and clock based on ESP8266: A couple of months ago I picked up cheap WiFi-controlled LED bulbs (one among dozens of very similar devices), after seeing them at a friend’s place. This turned out to be an excuse to play with the ESP8266, which has inspired several […]

How to Make Two ESP8266 Talk
https://www.electronics-lab.com/how-to-make-two-esp8266-talk/
Rui Santos shows us how to make two ESP8266 to talk: In this project you’re going to make two ESP8266 talk with each other. How it works? You’re going to set one ESP as an Access Point (Server) and another ESP as a Station (Client). Then they’ll establish a wireless communication and the Client sends […]
