IoT Power Relay
SFUptownMaker Introduction
In this tutorial, we'll show you how to host a webpage on the ESP32 Thing that will allow you to set times for a power relay to be turned on or off.
It utilizes our ESP32 Thing, IoT Power Relay, and the Qwiic Micro OLED screen to create a smart outlet that can maintain a weekly schedule for powering any AC powered load you want to cycle regularly.
