-=== Tasmota === 
- 
-Tasmota is firmware providing support for various devices attached to an ESP8266. It has both and HTTP (web) and MQTT interface. 
- 
-It was primarily designed for SONOFF power switches but can be used with any device to give an MQTT enabled WIFI temperature monitor, for example. 
- 
-Here is an example seession for a SONOFF basic switch. 
- 
-Backup factory firmware.
