ESP32 Thing Development Board

Sparkfun Thing – by far, my favourite ESP32 dev board. WiFi only works when powered with battery (not just USB). Lots of GPIO pins available. Love the 4Mb of program memory. I'm using it as the 'brain' for my Johnny 5 robot connected to Botboarduino.

Sparkfun Thing – de loin, ma carte de développement ESP32 préférée. Le WiFi ne fonctionne que lorsqu'il est alimenté par batterie (pas seulement USB). Beaucoup de broches GPIO disponibles. J'adore les 4 Mo de mémoire programme. Je l'utilise comme "cerveau" pour mon robot Johnny 5 connecté à Botboarduino.

Je n'ai exécuté que quelques exemples dessus, mais il les a exécutés sans aucun problème. Je vais acheter un couple de plus à utiliser au lieu d'Arduinos.

I have only run a few of the examples on it, but it ran them without any problems. I am going to buy a couple more to use instead of Arduinos.

One of the great things about this board is that it is breadboard friendly, and many ESP32 boards are not. I used Arduino to make a beehive monitor with it reporting the readings through WiFi to a web site. Most of the board functions are now supported by Arduino and active development is adding more all the time. The low power sleep mode is great for my project since it is running on a battery (USB power pack) in the field. Of course there are other development tools that can be used with this board if you want to use something other than Arduino.
