Nice one paying back to the community for all the help you were given when starting out - great work Craig

more coming , I plan on flashing an esp8266 with tasmota, taking pictures step by step , and how get to the end result with the proper flash that allows i2c, and the ds18b20's. as well as wiring and setting up the tasmota esp device.

I agree with @edje11 about the web browser installation, it's really astonishingly simple and successful for an esp development board (by which I mean one with usb connection, eg nodemcu, Witty Cloud, Adafruit feather). I put Tasmota on "Witty Cloud" esp12 boards using Chrome on my Windows PC.

Yes I agree, however the esp8266 that I had purchased didn't work that easy

here is another tool in flows about tasmota and node red. [image] node-red-contrib-tasmota Node-RED integration for Tasmota flashed devices

Probably worth mentioning for United Kingdom users that when using the webbrowser install, that the firmware version Tasmota UK in the drop-down is Ukrainian. (I know from experience :astonished:) Just select the English version.

Installing Tasmota with the webbrowser is much easier then Tasmotizer.

Works only with Chrome or Edge.
