In my last video, I showed a quite complicated way to flash the new Sonoff Mini. In today's quickie, I show you a more straightforward method to get the job done.
Sonoff made it complicated to flash a new Firmware on a Sonoff Mini. In the comments viewer suggested to solder four wires to the four pins on the PCB. This is possible, and it works. But you need some soldering skills. Another viewer discovered a different method on Thingiverse: Print a programming jig and use it to flash the Mini.
