Thanks all for the info and tips. Very useful. Had a bash at hard wiring my MQTT temperature controller at the weekend. Made a right mess of it. Wrote off two ESP8266-01 in the process with my Maplin "lava lance"
I'll be investing in something better, and give the Lidl one a miss.
Tell me, does the quality of solder matter, is there a brand those in the know all use?
Also wire, do you just chop up the jumper cables and use those?
