@m26872: cool :)
I have some wall plug which look like yours. I wanted to do same thing since a long time but no time yet. I have already a relay board (much more like your v2 with signing and ota..). I may try to adapt it to my wallplug, but like you I have not too much time actually but maybe that could be easier than I think..When you say, you got stuck on v2, what do you mean?? routing problem or time missing...
btw very nice integration/work, I like reading your stuff, thx for share again ;) -
Really cool! Nice work! :)

@scalz I got stuck at early testing after populated the board with only Atmega, ftdi and minimal support parts. I found some board issues, but apparently not all of them, and I haven't had the time to troubleshoot it deep enough.

@m26872 oki! same bad luck things happens to me sometimes ;)
Finally I have looked at my cheap wallplugs and it seems smaller than yours...so more difficult to fit something in mine.
I have few of these box that I bought for this purpose too (and still empty!) : http://www.tme.eu/fr/details/cp-z-27_j/boitiers-pour-alimentations/combiplast/
Bigger..and maybe less interesting/looking nice than buying a kit of 3 wallplug. but maybe easier to make something "standard" as it can be bought from tme. -

@m26872 Very interesting project! I'm thinking about something similar, but also want to include power measurement. Did you think about this?

I am not competent to say anything about the logic, but just wanted to show my support to the project. I wanted to do the same thing with modifying some existing wall plugs from clasohlson, and I did modify one of the plugs and it works fine, but on the other my 4.7uF radio cap gets killed after a few hours. Now I am waiting for some parts to retest more, as I do have one of the working for months now, but no luck on replicating the success
Meanwhile I am looking forward to your progress on this, as I am sure it will be much safer then my unskilled frankenstein.

I forgot to add that the nRF performance seems to be very good.

anyone do something like this for US plugs?
