Instructions | Hack Smartphone Charger Logger

1

Step by step for build a HackPowerSupply Logger

1. Find a broken smartphone charger

2. Cut a litte prototype PCB that fits in the case of the charger

3. Solder a 1mm header on one side of ESP8266-12E (the side of TX, RX etc pin)

4. Modify the 1mm header to adapt to a 2.54 mm prototype PCB

5. Solder all component as indicated in the schematic

Program the ESP8266 for first time
- To program ESP8266 you need to connect the FTDI programmer to the pin RX, TX and GND. Before apply the power, connect the pin GPIO00 to Ground. I use a Arduino IDE to program the ESP8266
- You will need just the first upload with the FTDI programmer. No more upload with it will be needed. All the future uploads will be done through the Wi-Fi, thanks to the OTA.
