Updated digiDIM / WifiManager Tasmota Files

Image
For the folks using the awesome Martin Jerry SD-01 and Tessan / Acenx MJ-SD02 dimmers, I've updated the fork to 6.6.0.6.  There aren't any additional features except for what came with the rebase on the updated base of Tasmota.  If you do decided to update your dimmers you'll need to select the MJ-SD01 module again after the reboot since the module number changes with this version.  More info on setup/flashing to be found here . Even though Tuya Convert seems to be getting more rare and rare each day, I updated the generic bin with wifi manager (AP mode) as default to 6.6.0.7 as well, this can be used for many other flashing applications too!   Download here .

Tuya Convert - What's Next? | Solderless Flashing Options

Image
Tuya Convert got you down?  Still looking for some devices that don't require soldering to flash your Tasmota, ESPHome, etc open source firmware?  We are checking out a few devices that can be flashed with the open pin headers.  No soldering!  If you have any devices to add to the list be sure to comment down below.  They will get added along with pictures of the pin headers on this Blog post.  Let's build the list and make all of our devices ours with pure local control! Solderless Devices Zemismart - 1,2, or 3 Switch They refer to them as gangs, but there are three models based on how many switches you want. They are clickie style switches and fit in a standard US 1 gang width box.  Remove the 4 screws on the back and you'll see the pins all right there.  IO0 is the GPIO 0 pin. Sonoff iFan03 The button is GPIO0 - hold the button while applying power for a few seconds, just like the Sonoff Basic Etekcity Switch 2 Way Etekcity Switch 3 Way
