Home Assistant: 10$ WiFi Energy plug meters with ESPhome (tuya-convert) part - 1

Описание: Even since we've moved to our new home we have been having issues with keeping our home energy usage in check. It turns out you can get cheap WiFi connected plug-in style energy meters or "smart plugs" for about 10$ now which can easily be re-programmed to work natively with Home Assistant.

In this video I show you how you can flash them without using any wires or soldering!

This video is part 1 of 3 (or 4), check out the others videos too!

!!! I have been receiving reports that the US Teckin plugs have gotten a new Internal chipset without an ESP8266 so the process not longer works for those, best to select another Tuya based plug !!!
