• But you can see the back of the esp8266 if it was the "wrong way around" you'd see the chips (see image below)

    Yes, the issue is that on the Nodeconf EU 2018 badge I made a mistake, and you had to do that nasty hack with the ESP8266 that you saw in the video - pulling the pins out and turning it around.

    In later badges that I made I fixed that mistake so you could just push the ESP8266 in without messing with the pins (as in the image below). It's documented in http://www.espruino.com/Pixl.js+MulticolĀ­our#esp8266-wiring but obviously the video was already made so I can't change that, nor can I change the Nodeconf documentation
