 All of the boards, except one, work fine.

 The non-working one is just not connecting to WiFi, regardless of which specific ESP8266 I plug in there.

 I have no explanation for this, unfortunately.

+## Relais Update (August 2022)

+<a class="anchor" name="relais_update"></a>

+After successfully using the first [4x relais board](https://amzn.to/3FQdOXB) I ordered to control my bathroom lights and fan for a couple of months, I decided to use two more of the same boards for my livingroom lights.
91
+This turned out to be quite the feat however.
92
+
93
+I initially set up the devices as before without issues, fixing and cleaning up some stuff in the code along the way.
94
+When connecting the load, in my case LED driver modules, the issues started to appear however.

+The ESP8266 simply reset nearly everytime it tried to switch a load.
107
+Investigating with an oscilloscope, it turns out there were nasty spikes on both the supply voltage and the reset pin.
108
+Keep in mind, for the screenshots above I already added a bunch of capacitors (100uF, 100nF, 22pF) to both lines, without any change.
109
+I tried out literally every option I could find suggested in online discussions, like connecting GND of the circuit to PE, switching neutral instead of the phase, adding pull-ups for RST, adding capacitors.
110
+I even bought a filter module for 220V to put in front of the drivers.
111
+Nothing helped.

+Getting kinda desperate, I remembered someone online mentioned that "ESP-01s" modules are not only equipped with more memory, they also have better EMV resistance for some reason.
121
+This sounded strange to me, but nonetheless I ordered some ESP-01s modules instead of the ESP-01 I had before.
122
+And it worked!
123
+No problems at all with the new ESPs.
