This is a new crowtail product, which is called Crowtail- ESP8266 Node MCU, it adds six crowtail interface on the board, so you can easily to use the ESP8266 Iot board with other crowtail modules.  We wired up a USB-Serial chip that can upload code. It also has auto-reset so no noodling with pins and reset button pressings. To make it easy to use for portable projects, we added a connector for 3.7V Lithium polymer batteries and built in battery charging. You don't need a battery, it will run just fine straight from the micro USB connector. But, if you do have a battery, you can take it on the go, then plug in the USB to recharge. The board will automatically switch over to USB power when its available.

Comes fully assembled and tested, with a USB interface that lets you quickly use it with the Arduino IDE or NodeMCU Lua. (It comes preprogrammed with the Lua interpretter) We also toss in some header so you can solder it in and plug into a solderless breadboard. Lipoly battery and USB cable not included (but we do have lots of options in the shop if you'd like!)
