Espressif announced on 05/11/2015 the upcoming ESP32 chip:
While the specs are impressive a lot of questions a rise :
Support – Espressif is a small company as far as we knew – would they be able to support both chips in the long term? Compatibility with esp8266? – The new ESP32 will use the RTOS based SDK and most APIs are said to be compatible with the esp8266 SDK.
A Teaser of What to expect from our upcoming WiFi connected 2 channel relay board.

I need a bigger flash and a breadboard friendly board. Quick research lead to the following variants, beside soldering a bigger flash on the ESP-XX series modules.
NodeMCU board’s that have bigger flash and fit on a breadboard but have regulators and usb 2 serial on them. ESP-XX module with adapter, don’t like . MOD-WIFI-ESP8266-DEV And the winner is Olimex’s – MOD-WIFI-ESP8266-DEV .
i got some of them:
I’ve got a new tool at the LAB!

The Tool:
Having an oscilloscope is just priceless. You may need it rarely but there are times when you are just lost blind without it. The video lists all you should now about it and a bit more
If you are considering to get one and you are in EU. I can recommend Silcon.cz – you will get a nice service there.
When repairing stuff with a motor the first question is:
“Is it the motor or is it the board that failed?”
For a recent Inverter Air Conditioner board repair the following tool helped to answer that question.
Simulate the circuit
The circuit can act as Induction Motor aka asynchronous motor .
Inverter Air Conditioners which use AC motors take the 220V from the grid and turn them into about 150V three phase AC which drives the motor.
