Someone else updated their Sonoff-Tasmota to Version 5.1.3 and noted that the topic changed from ‘cmnd/myTopic/POWER’ to ‘myTopic/cmnd/POWER’ ?
EDIT/FIXED
The full Topic was MyTopic and not the Topic 
Hey,
many things changes with version 5.0, check here: https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/releases
The switch of the topic structure was actually motivated by me https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/issues/244
I’ll have to yet update the openHAB wiki article on this change. I’ll post a note after this is done.
@ThomDietrich @community
Did anyone of you guys flashed the SONOFF SC ? If so could you give me some guidance ?
I found found this image, but sadly this did not work for me.
Anyone?
EDIT / SOLVED
Flashing the ESP8266
Flashing the ESP8266 is very easy since the header close to it has all the required connections (3V3, TX, RX, GND) and the button is connected to GPIO0. Press and hold the button while powering the board to set the ESP8266 into flashing mode. You will have to remove the TX jumper in the board to avoid the ATMega328P to interfere in the upload process.
Note! After flashing you need to set the baudrate to 19200
Would you please add your findings here: https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/wiki/Hardware-Preparation

Hi Thom, may I know which pogo pins are using?
Diameter size/type
for the addition, an extra for the Club Mate in the background

The ones you can see in the picture are “P75-LM2 ø 1,02 mm”

If I were to buy them again, I’d probably go with “P75-T2”

Thanks for the recommendation Thom
Could this pogo pin be used for other itead wall switch? Is it possible to avoid soldering
I have no login there. You just need some to fit onto the pcb holes. You will still need to solder the cables to the pins though.
Sorry, thought I could link directly to the post number, apparently not
Here’s the link for the main thread

I see. Well you could try but I feel soldering like in the picture will actually be easier.
Ok i will test that, should I grab the pogo pins with pointed tip for the wall switch?
I’m just worried i might mess up the soldering which is why I’m inclined to use pogo pins.
The pogo pins are on the other side complicated to hold steadily and you might short something… For the wall plug you are probably better off with the ones I have (LM2)

Ok, i will get that type.
Could I just solder male jumper cable directly to the pogo pins or I also need to get one of those connectors
I have one of the sonoff with power measurement. I think it is with the built in failure, so that it can burn at high power usage.
Has anybody changed the sonoff or did you use it? If i use it only with low power, there shouldn´t be a problem, i think?
I´m from germany and i don´t want to send it back to china. I think this is more expensive then buying a new one. But if i buy a new one, there is no guarantee, that i get a fixed one? I bought mine after the publishing of the failure - directly from itead, but i got a sonoff which was produced some months ago, so i think i have an old one with this built in problem.
Hello Community,
I just finished a big part of my Sonoff Project and wanted to share this with you all.
Later on I will submit the full finished Project as a blog post.
Here is a little picture of my Sonoff 4Ch. Say NOTHING about the cable management

Hey, I wanted to say your cable management is…

Hey @halloween,
I was in the same situation and also decided against sending the POW back. My washing machine, dish washer and fridge are monitored by Homematic modules since long before the Pow was released. My Sonoff Pows are monitoring only low energy devices (5W and 50W), plus these are mostly active when I’m home (lights). Hence I didn’t see a potential problem here.
One recommendation though: The Sonoff-Tasmota firmware offers a MaxPower setting, maybe you want to set it up just in case.
NOTHING
I like it! I wait for the blog post!
