Good value but needs patience
Works well once configured. Driver installation took some time on Windows 10.

Solid hardware
Pinout is standard. Wish it had more analog pins but otherwise great.
Q: Is this compatible with the Arduino IDE?
A: Yes, you can program it using the Arduino IDE with the ESP8266 board manager.
Q: Can I power it with a 3.3V regulator directly?
A: Yes, you can supply 3.3V to the 3.3V pin, but ensure stable power supply to avoid resets.
Q: Are the header pins pre-soldered?
A: This version typically comes with unsoldered headers unless specified otherwise in the variant selection.
Q: What is the maximum current per GPIO pin?
A: The maximum current per GPIO pin is approximately 12mA. Please do not exceed this to avoid damage.
Q: Does this board support MQTT protocol?
A: Yes, the ESP8266 supports MQTT libraries widely used for IoT communication.
