Yeah I have one RGB light that uses a ThingsTurn module (which iirc is based on a w600) and I couldn't be arsed to swap out the module for a ESP.

But I have 10 (8 in use, two on hand incase I ever want another lamp/secuirty light around the home, well atm the spares are in use for the christmas lights, but will go back into standby status after the lights come down.) of these ultrabight poundland sockets and all of them are ESP based. (though the ones I've recently added to my collection couldn't be flashed with tuyaconvert and needed some surgery, the last 2 in my collection I couldn't be arsed and just left them with the Tuya firmware and use the tuya API to control them, but thats my own lazyness not that they cna't be done.)

For ceiling lights I use shellys so I could retain the use of the wall switch to control them.
