This is one of the WiFi power sockets that you can buy with swiss connectors.
Price is about 12 USD, which is quite cheap.

3 Flashing

I tried out the Tasmota Firmware which is doing an amazing job once it is running.

Tasmotizer is a all-in-one flasher which can flash esp-8266 based iot devices out of the box

Of course you need some basic soldering skills and few dupont lines to get it running.
For flashing, I used the tool I have for flashing ESP-01 modules, it worked as expected.
Of course you can use any FTDI if it supports 3.3V logic level.
