@karldonteljames I don’t suppose you’d be willing to sell and exchange? I just don’t have the knowledge to be able to do this, but would really like to do it.
Just flashed two of them successfully! Many, many thanks @maxwroc !
I’m struggling to get the earth plate back into the rivet. How did everyone go about it?

I’m having a similar issue to @Vas with getting the rivets back in place, anyone got any good tips for this?
I ended up just tightening brass bolts in their place. I’ve had them installed for 2 months now.
Hey, I just submitted a PR to your config Add HA calibration service by vasileio · Pull Request #2 · DJBenson/ha-stuff · GitHub
I had Tasmota running on 2 of these for more than half a year, totally happy with it, but I thought I would bring everything to ESPHome. I copied another project’s config: GitHub - JamesSwift/localbytes-plug-pm: An ESPHome firmware for the Localbytes smart plug that uses the HA calibration feature which makes it a breeze, so I get very accurate readings after this.
To go from Tasmota to ESPHome without serial flashing, I had to upload a super minimal ESPHome configuration which was basically just an OTA app:
esphome:
name: garden-sockets
esp8266:
board: esp01_1m
wifi:
ssid: !secret wifi_ssid
password: !secret wifi_password
ota:
platform: esphome
After that I could flash the configuration I submitted through a PR to your repo, for easier reference of future readers:

# Short placeholders for reuse in the config

Thanks everyone again!
I might try my luck next with their power strip Smart 3G surge protected extension lead with Quad USB Charger | ML Accessories
Was looking forward to trying this out but it looks like they have revised their hardware and removed the pin holes on the esp chip making the reflash via pin far more difficult
