SmartThings VS Tasmota

However, I've been doing a lot more reading and came across a forum on smartthings.com regarding a Carrier system. One member said he installed a Senville ducted system and what he did to make his ducted system wireless. He got rid of the very basic thermostat that came with the unit for an upgraded programmable thermostat and tied it in with the Wi-Fi kit. Source: over 1 year ago

All of my office devices are connected to Sonoff S31 smart plugs, flashed with Tasmota on their own locked-down VLAN, and can be controlled via voice, Alexa, Tasker automation on my Android, NFC tags at my office door and various scripts triggered via my StreamDeck (on Linux). This all works fantastic, and I can turn on or off my devices, including my printer, when I start or end my day at work. Source: 6 months ago

The best alternative firmware example for true IOT devices is Tasmota [1]. Erase manufacturer firmware for every ESP devices the day after purchase to avoid those careless manufacturer firmwares. [1] https://tasmota.github.io/docs/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

The ESP8266 based Sonoff S31 and ESP32 based Switchbot plugs, both flashed with either Tasmota or ESPHome, are my go-to options for US WiFi smart plugs with power monitoring. Source: 11 months ago

And if you want to turn your ESP8266 into a standalone appliance, with a web interface and directly editable config that doesn't need a build step, Tasmota is another great option. https://tasmota.github.io/docs/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

Go to your gateway IP and type admin/OTAPASSWORD . The password can be changed from the Wifi Manager portal. Thanks, @NorthernMan54, for this add and to Tasmota as they inspired this feature and the code. Note that the WebUI is unavailable with the Theengs plug in this version. Source: 11 months ago
