| IoT Switch: From top: 5V relay PCB, Level Translator PCB and ESP-12E |
 |
| 5V opto-isolated Relay PCB |
 |
| 4-Channel Logic Level Converter |
There is a full explanation on the schematic here.
The wiring is quite straightforward:
ESP-12E Level Converter 2-Channel Relay
3.3V LV HV 5V
GND GND GND GND
D6 LV1 HV1 IN1
D7 LV2 HV2 IN2

/*
* This sketch demonstrates how to set up a simple HTTP-like server.
* The server will set a GPIO pin depending on the request
* http://server_ip:8080/gpio/0 will set the GPIO2 low,
* http://server_ip:8080/gpio/1 will set the GPIO2 high
* server_ip is the IP address of the ESP8266 module, will be
* printed to Serial when the module is connected.

As before, you turn on the first relay using:
http://yourIPaddress/D6/0
And off using:
http://yourIPaddress/D6/1
The commands for the second relay are:
http://yourIPaddress/D7/0
http://yourIPaddress/D7/1
The total cost of the parts was something like RM21.90 + RM9.99 + RM1.35 or RM33.24, not counting the 5V power supply and the various bits of wires and connectors.
This is very similar to the Sonoff ITEAD IoT switch which sells for only RM30.84:

There you have it: your DIY IoT switch actually sets you back some RM2.40. But as we shall see later, the Sonoff, among others, has some serious security problems, like the Krack exploit. Rolling our own IoT relay switch is the first step to taking control of our IoT security, rather than relying on the vendors' updates, both of the firmware and the accompanying app.
You can actually upgrade the Sonoff firmware yourself. Happy trails.
