    Best way to open a Plug?

    in Plugs

    Hi there.


    Anyone know the best way to open the smart plug? Looking at opening the PG05V2-AU16A-ESP-1?


    I'm surprised for a product pushing the open software angle, that the plugs can't be opened easily, they appeared glued together rather than screwed. Making flashing them if they get bricked a issue down the track.


    For me, I would like to remove relay, I just want to use these plugs for pure power monitoring with zero risk of the plug ever being turning off.

    Hi Andrew, I was curious how you got on with mods to your plug? Did you managed to open them and did you try to flash them. I bricked one of mine & have managed to open the plug cleanly but it's not obvious where all the ftdi connections should go.

    Hi Athom, thanks for the advice, that will be my plan, to adjust the code so the relay comes on and and can't be turned off. I guess I was more looking at removing the relay, to remove the small power draw required to keep it on. While your plugs are really good in this space compared some others I have needing nearly 2w just to energize the relay, so that usage adds up over a year when you have a few plugs. Are these units glued/melted together? Or are the snap together. Best way to open one or no chance of opening it without breaking it?


    Thanks

    The shells of these plugs are glued together, just to give you a suggestion, you can buy some more, then we send you a couple of brand new shells for free

    You can modify the yaml configuration, recompile the firmware to update, you don't need to remove the relay, you delete the part about the relay configuration
