I recently found out about Sonoff-Tasmota ( https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota ), i hate it. Because now i bought for 300 € of Sonoff products for home-automation based on the MQTT protocol.
(The project allows you to flash the Sonoff products with custom firmware)
They also have an IR module, for customizing your remote.
Anyone else has other ideas that are similar for home automation without adjusting your electronic wiring?
- whitlock 8y agoLike you hinted, flashing Sonoff-Tasmota firmware on ESP8266 hardware lets you get A LOT of home automation equipment for fairly little. They make many devices and someone getting started should checkout the Sonoff-Tasmota for supported devices AND check out Sonoff. If you don't want to use a Sonoff Basic or maybe the bigger 4 channel option, I'd suggest getting some of their wall adapters like the S31 (think Wemo wall plug). There is a confirmed flash for Sonoff-Tasmota & ESPurna for it and would let someone dip their toes into cheap home automation with MQTT.
- JshWright 8y agoYeah, but on the plus side, if you were buying "polished" products, 300 € would get you a hub and two lightbulbs...
