Sonoff 4 channel, Tasmota and Home Assistant

Sonoff. I have been automating my home for more than a year but never heard of that brand. While researching on how to build my own control unit for an irrigation system I stumbled upon it and now I am hooked.

The best way to integrate a Sonoff device into Home Assistant is to flash it by Tasmota. This is how I did it with a Sonoff 4 channel pro R3.
