I found this new ESP8266 demo board, fairly nice, anyone doing home control its very nicely laid out, relay + temperature + humidity http://www.esp8266.com/u/espdemo

pretty colors. the gold stitching around the border is a nice touch.

I got one and could not do anything with it. I can work with most any other ESP8266

@James_Dinsmore really why? ESP8266 CH340 programming, no reason… did you figure it out?

I can’t seem to find any schematics or info on what pin is connected to what on-board peripheral. Would suck having to try and find it all out by trial-and-error.

I’ve got the board for over a while now and it works perfectly. Only the DHT sensor is pretty useless as it is mounted on the PCB (unless you want to know how hot your hardware is).
