[Swansea Hackspace] Esp8266 workshop

[Emyr Morris]

looks good - my initial tests were hampered by me assuming the wrong Serial
Baud rate - switched to 9600 and all works lovely

I was looking for devices to connect to either relays or sensors so 1 GPIO
was enough for each application. I guess if I order more I will get the
ones with the tin cans over the chips to reduce RFI about the place

Good luck there!
