Review on πŸ”Œ HiLetgo ESP8285 Development Board V1.0.0 - 2pcs Set | 1MB Flash Lite, Wireless WiFi Internet Development Board by Keith Martin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works with Tasmota and Ubuntu

As said in another review, it can be flashed with Tasmota. In this review, I happened to be using 8.1.0. Using the FT232 to USB Converter: Set the output power of the FT232 to 3.3VDC, connect the FT232 with 3.3VDC, GND, TX, RX to the board by connecting TX, RX on the board side Swap to make a crossover (TX-to-RX, RX) . -to-TX). To put the device into firmware mode, before connecting to the ground pin D3 (GPIO0) of the FT232 USB device, after connecting and applying power, remove the D3 jumper to ground for 5 seconds and run the firmware -command, e.g. B. so.sudo esptool --port /dev /ttyUSB0 write_flash -fs 1MB -fm dout 0x0 tasmota-8.1.0.bin When done, power cycle it, wait a while, connect to the new Tasmota Wifi hotspot "tasmota_XXXXXX-### #" and complete the setup. Enjoy
