Hello,
I want to use the HX711 device: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... #p067-page
After installing ESPeasy (ESP_Easy_mega_20210223_normal_ESP8266_4M1M.bin) I cannot find the device in the list. Which .bin file to use or how to integrate this device?
Thank you to enlighten me.

You have responded in a rather old threadRiewekooche wrote: ↑19 Feb 2023, 11:14 Silly question:
where can i find these test.bin builds?
I would try to use the hx711 on a ESP12E/F.

In the mean time, the TEST builds have been split into TEST A..E, and later renamed and extended to Collection A..F.
The documentation for HX711 has been recently added (page used to be empty), over here: Weight - HX711 Load Cell
The bin files can be downloaded from Github, best is to get a recent Merge build, like this one but the Collection builds are only available for ESP's with 4MB Flash installed, because of the size of all plugins included.
If you would need to buy a new unit for testing, you could consider getting an ESP32 or ESP32-S2, as those are also fully supported by ESPEasy, and these usually come with 4MB or more flash installed, and have more RAM memory available, for 'smoother sailing'. When getting and ESP32 with 16MB Flash, you can install the MAX build, that includes all available plugins.
NB: To be able to download the zip file from the Github pages you need to be logged in with a (free) Github account.
