The NodeMCU has been one of the staples in our IoT arsenal, especially heavily in our Christmas lights collection of projects.

We pick this great little piece of gear up from AliExpress (We bought this model) – search using code “ALCKQMN8” if the link doesn’t work.

With a built in WiFi chip, OLED for basic configuration and/or stats display and powered by micro USB, this board is the one stop shop for your next project.
