hello,
i was wondering if there is by any chance a way how to connect some small relay 5V? via usb to some pc as cubox/rpi … so i can somehow control that relay remotely via HASS.
thanks

Does it have to be USB?
There are many cheap ESP relay modules (wifi) that work well with ESPHome.
@tom_l hello, thanks, what do you mean by ESPHome… or do you mind to share some example? thanks!
edit
did u mean > https://www.instructables.com/ESP0101S-RELAY-MODULE-TUTORIAL/ ?
and integration would be via> Getting Started with ESPHome and Home Assistant — ESPHome ?
Yes that’s it.
I use these with ESPHOME, work great
whats the usage for these? As I understand you can power on/off USB port - ie it’s like controlling USB charger - 5V on/off?
thanks
You can switch on/off anything that uses USB power.
