IoT - Tuya Mini WiFi Switch 16A

Tuya Mini WiFi DIY Switch Timer 16A
- (really) cheap one-relay Wifi module - 16A capable
- TUYA app controlled - HW replacement needed for Tasmota (tuyaconvert is NOT working)
-  want to upload Tasmota to be able connect to Homeassistant via MQTT.


 


 

Module ESP-like module: CB2S Module (non compatible with Tasmota)

I decided to replace non-compatible CB2S Module with TYWE2S Module (what is ESP 8265 compatible)
https://developer.tuya.com/en/docs/iot/wifie2smodule?id=K9605u79tgxug
TYWE2S has a same form factor + pins as CB2S and upload Tasmota firmware to TYWE2S is easy.

Pins and (de)soldering:
