[Sharing] My esp housing solution

Sharing is caring.

I’ve finished modifying my housing for my door sensors. Soldering Inc soon! If you need small battery powered projects this is for you.

Doesn’t get much bigger than 2x18650s :slight_smile:

Very clever use of a battery box, compact and a power switch! :+1:

The best part about it, it has a hole cutout already for wiring, and fits a esp8266-12 module, however I’m making use of my 01s. The height can be a little tight but I’ll post an update once I get time from wife and kid to actually do some soldering :stuck_out_tongue:

Here’s an update, half way. Enough for today!

I love your solution for soldering the ams33 on there (or whatever its called). I’m gonna do that to, with a pinheader like that!

Ay, was thinking of adding some clipped of legs from like a resistor or capacitor but this was more robust! Glad you liked it, and it’s the HT7333.

Some tip from experience, pre-solder the pins and align the middle one first, focus on getting it held by solder, ignore any ugly looks. Then when you finish a second pin it’s easier to adjust the middle one :slight_smile:
