Review: Lua Node MCU ESP-12F WiFi Development Board

Video review on the Lua Node MCU ESP-12F WiFi development board. This board is a great way to learn or expand your Arduino projects. Arduino is an electronics platform which uses both software and hardware to make interactive projects. It’s able to take in various inputs such as switches, sensors, or internet variables. This in turn can be used on a variety of outputs such as leds, screens, motors, audio, etc. It uses an ESP-12F wifi module, originally based on the ESP-12E which is a four layer board design, includes a revised antenna that increases distance by 30% to 50%, has a built in PCB antenna, and has a 4mb flash. This module is very reliable and also quite easy to setup. This board is a 30 pin design and is breadboard friendly. Here I am using this breadboard as an example, however this circuit board is too wide so you will either need a wider breadboard or two side by side. It includes both a flash and reset momentary switches but isn’t needed as once it’s connected, it will automatically do this for you The board connects via micro usb port, uses a CH340G chip which is compatible with USB 2.0 interface and supports both 5 and 3.3 voltage applications. The board uses an AMS1117 voltage regulator that has a line regulation of 0.2% max and a load regulation of 0.4% max. The dimensions of the board are about 2.25” (5.8cm) in length, 1.25” or 3.1cm in width and 0.5” or 1.4cm in height including the pins.

Hello bro
First of all thank you for giving us such a beautiful and informative video.
I had some questions about ESP8266 NodeMCU v3. If I want to make a repeater with it. So my question is
1 / What will be the maximum range of NodeMCU repeater?
2 / What is the maximum data speed of NodeMCU WiFi?
3 / NodeMCU repeater maximum number of people can use together?

what's the range of this? can you extend it?

Hi
Does the board can execute the sketch if it s unplugged form the pc an plugged with a dc adapter ?
