This week I received a new device… Sonoff S20 Smart Switch. After the basic test using the iOS App (EWeLink) knowed by me in other time, I started to find some information about the possibility of hack this device and connect it to my OpenHAB, and I found this interesting post in OpenHab Comuunity site: […]
Today I discovered the powerful device Broadlink RM 3 Mini IR Controller. I purchased one of this last month, and arrived in 15-20 days as is usual with bangood purchases. I followed the instructions for connect it to my WiFi network and I did some test with my air-conditioner unit. It works fine, you starts […]
Once I tested the Sonoff switch with the standard functionallity, I needed to go further and this is the objective of this mini-project… manage this Wi-Fi switch with my voice. The steps to achieve this objective was: Hack the Sonoff firmware in order to upload my own code Connect it to my OpenHAB server Configure […]
So to fix this issue I had to use a Windows program called Diskpart.exe and here is what I did to fix it: Press WinKEY + X – this opens special start menu items Click on Command Prompt (Admin) Type in command promt:
|
1 2 3 |
diskpart list disk select disk X |
; Where X is your USB drive
|

clean create partition primary format fs=fat32 quick |
or format fs=ntfs […]
If you only have access to a Linux Console, it will be difficult to you check the Internet Speed with the usual tools for this measure. An alternative would be the command line tool that speedtest-cli offers:
|
1 2 3 |
wget -O speedtest-cli https://raw.github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest_cli.py chmod +x speedtest-cli ./speedtest-cli |
You should get an output like this:

Their size is smallest as I imagine, and that is to be welcomed for […]
My first project will be a Temperature and Humidity sensor wired to an ESP8266 12-F with a OLED screen to show the data. Objective is to create a simple clock with 3D printed enclosure with: ESP8266 12-F DHT22 sensor 0.96″ I2C OLED screen Micro USB-Female for power (not LiPo at the moment) ESP8266 microcontroller apart […]
