What kind of hardware?
Hi, I'm looking for some hardware where I can connect a probe to "any" serial connection where I can view the data being sent, on my PC. Right now I'm looking inside a tower fan, which has two PCB's with a connector between. The connector has e.g. RX/TX, so I was thinking if I somehow coul...

Re: Ghost switch ??
And you should really use a pull-up resistor (10k or 4k7 would be fine) on the button input gpio, the internal pull-up of the ESP is too weak to keep it firmly high if the button isn't pressed, so any induction across the wires may fake-push the button. Thanks for that hint. I'm also experiencing a...

I'm using the Sonoff S20 with ESPEasy, and I can't see why S26 shouldn't as well.

That possible. But even when sending one value every 30 minutes to both controller, it fails so it does not seem to be related to the queue filling up. So I agree that it sounds like a bug. I'll log it on github.
