This looks like an interesting board. May be a good upgrade for the 8266

Yes I saw that too. Apparently, pin compatible. I will try and get a board and see how it works.
I have gotten the sketch working on ESP32. So it should be pretty simple to get working.
I have a new board on the way that uses a smaller form factor MCU. It will support either Seeed XIAO RP2040 or Adafruit QT Py ESP32-S2.
I havenāt yet worked on running the sketch on the Seeed XIAO, but as itās pin compatible with the QT Py and runs Ardiuno code, it should be trivial to get working. I like these boards as they are the size of a postage stamp and as powerful, maybe more so than the Wemos boards.

Apparently thereās a hardware issue with V1.0.0
Currently testing V2.1.0 (received it yesterday) and itās great so far.
Any news about compatibility with airgradient board? Iām waiting mine to arrive from JLCPCB
We are working on making the AirGradient Arduino library compatible with ESP32 boards.
The current library does not work with these chips.
Iām really interested in this. Using esphome, it should be possible to use it for not just airgradient, but adding bluetooth_proxy which could be handy given airgradients are likely scattered around. 2 tasks with one device.
I received by Pro (non soldered) kit very recently and have been having trouble uploading firmware with ESPHome as it times out very often. I have absolutely no time out issues with any of my other ~30 ESP boards. The board that came with the kit is a Lolin D1 āMimiā which is based on the 8266 so I figured Iād try to replace it with a pin compatible ESP32 S2 Mini or an ESP32-WROOM-32 ESP Mini 32 (no idea on brand or proper nameā¦).
ESP32 S2:
The OLED display, PMS5003 and SHT3X all worked fine but I just could not get UART1 for the CO2 sensor to work.
ESP32 WROOM 32 (Mini)
Everything works perfectly and it is pin compatible so no mods necessary.
Note: Sorry for terrible picā¦ camera on my S20Ultra is awful.
Edit:
Nevermindā¦ it works but now I cannot close the enclosure without modifying it as the corner where the LEDs are interferes with the recessed part of the enclosure or removing the PCB corner where the power led is (likely not an issue to do so but I am not sure I want to). The ESP32 S2 fits perfectly but I canāt get the UART1 to workā¦ 
Edit2: Creative and careful use of a Dremel on both the ESP32 board and the enclosure solved the problem.
This is very interesting as we want to make the board ESP32 compatible.
There are D1 ESP32 based modules that are smaller and should not have the problem that we need to adjust the enclosure, e.g.
S2 Mini
or
C3 Mini
Would you like to share the code adjustments you made?
@Achim_AirGradient - I have an ESP32 S2 Mini but I could not get UART1 to work as stated above. I did not see any errors so I did not know what else to try.
I do not have a C3 Mini and I did not find any on amazon so I canāt test that one.
My ESPHome code is for the ESP32-WROOM-32 that is a bit too large to fit (I modified both the board and the case and it fits now):
Note: Code is still work in progressā¦

I certainly want to come back and try out your esphome code!
I bought a Lolin C3 mini v2.1.0. It was really tricky to find how to get it to run esphome for air gradient. I thought I should share the necessary changes, in case anyone else wants to try.
esphome:
name: air-gradient
platformio_options:
board_build.flash_mode: dio
esp32:
board: esp32-c3-devkitm-1
framework:
type: esp-idf
version: recommended
variant: esp32c3
logger:
level: DEBUG
hardware_uart: USB_SERIAL_JTAG
The last line is needed to get serial output. The flash mode was needed to allow me to flash it. Rest should be self explanatory, otherwise please ask.
With the Lolin C3 mini I have a bug. Most reads from the Co2 sensor fail with
17:04:16.100 > [E][uart:015]: Reading from UART timed out at byte 0!
17:04:16.102 > [W][senseair:024]: Reading data from SenseAir failed!
The problem reminds of S8 CO2 reading of -1 - #99 by AirGradient (but is subtly different). I did not find a solution to the issue and appreciate any advice one might have.
On the bright side: with the C3 I can run a esphome configuration with historic graphs which also forwards the data on mqtt. This solves one of the issues I had documented in Esphome with graphs
I picked up both a S2 mini and a C3 mini to test them as replacements for the included 8266 with esphome (like many others, Iāve been experiencing frequent/random reboots with the included D1 mini). After figuring out how to flash them and getting them working with esphome, I ran into the same SenseAir issues as @argafal. But interestingly - I found that if you flipped the order of the UARTs in the esphome config, then the senseair would start working properly and the PMS would stop. So that made it clear that this isnāt an issue with pin compatibility with the hardware UARTs or anything like that.
I figured out what was going on. Both the S2 and C3 boards have two hardware UARTs (unlike the full ESP32 which has three). In order to have hardware logging, esphome reserves the first (UART0) for the logger. Even if you disable hardware logging (by setting baud_rate to 0) or disable the logger entirely, it still wonāt assign UART0 to anything else. The PMS sensor, first in the list, was assigned UART1, and the SenseAir was assigned UART2, which isnāt functional on these boards.
I just submitted a pull request to esphome that changes this behavior, and allows UART0 to be assigned if the logger isnāt using it. To use these boards on the AirGradient, you have to give up hardware serial logging, but all the sensors will work (and you can still get logs over wireless). And importantly, it works reliably and the reboot issue went away (yay!). I found that both the S2 and C3 worked well with this change.
If anyone wants to try it out, hereās my esphome config for the S2 mini:

Iāve been playing around with trying to flash the S2 mini and S3 mini with Esphome to serve as an upgrade for the D1 Mini. Both are not fully supported in ESPHome yet.
For the S2/S3 Mini, beyond just having to specify bleeding edge framework versions and build options to enable double-UART, we cannot use bme680 with the bosch library if we want to add that to the device.
The āWemos D1 Mini 32ā is a non-standard but widely available knockoff, that has works natively with Esphome, without issues, but it has fitment issues. It might be good to design the next version of the shell with a footprint that supports the D1 Mini32.
Iāve nearly got this working - but I donāt have the OLED display nor the temperature sensor working which means Iāve got an I2C issue of some sort. The OLED display shows nothing and I get no readings from either.
My current config is a mashup of a few Iāve seen around and is below. Those who have the OLED working with the C3, any ideas? (The ESP32-C3 doesnāt crash regularly, hooray!)

Edit: Returning to add some clarification. I have Wemos v1.0.0 ESP32-C3 Mini. A hardware mod is not required to make the antenna work, just the callout for tx power. But Iām still stuck unable to find pin combinations that work for the I2C bus.
On the D1 Mini, Iām using
i2c:
sda: D2
scl: D1
frequency: 200kHz
Looking at the pinout of the D1 Mini, I see sda on D2 is the 4th pin down from the TX side
Compare that to the pinout of the C3 Mini, and we see that the 4th pin down is labeled 8
So I think you have your pins backwards, with sda needing to be pin 8 and scl being pin 10
You may also need to call them GPIO8 or GPIO10
i2c:
# https://esphome.io/components/i2c.html
sda: GPIO8
scl: GPIO10
frequency: 200kHz
Yep this was exactly it. Donāt know how I managed to map those backwards but I was indeed tired at the time. That has it up and running for anyone else who wants to try one.
100% working now on a 1.0.0 board with no issues. Itās BLE tracking devices for me as well and working flawlessly at that task too, with surprising range. Sooooo much nicer than the D1 mini.
Wemos ESP32-C3 mini works!
Editing this message to bring it back. For some reason this post got flagged as spam but noting that the C3 works is constructive to the discussion.

Thanks for this thread, I was really getting sick of my ESP8266-based board locking up. So far, so good, with an ESP32-C3 from Wemos.
Putting together a few data points above, and this silly named website - with ESPHome, I had to change
uart:
- rx_pin: D4
tx_pin: D3
baud_rate: 9600
id: senseair_s8_uart
- rx_pin: D5
tx_pin: D6
baud_rate: 9600
id: pms5003_uart
i2c:
sda: D2
scl: D1
to
uart:
- rx_pin: GPIO6
tx_pin: GPIO7
baud_rate: 9600
id: senseair_s8_uart
- rx_pin: GPIO1
tx_pin: GPIO0
baud_rate: 9600
id: pms5003_uart
i2c:
scl: GPIO10
sda: GPIO8
Edit: I had a hell of a time getting WiFi working. Had to go through a bunch of troubleshooting, but now fixed I think - Unable to connect to wifi: Auth Expired and Association Expired - #2 by k-d - ESPHome - Home Assistant Community documents it. tl;dr - try lowering WiFi output_power, among other settings (I2C bus frequency, display update interval)
Can confirm this. Just to add what I also got from using an S2 mini, I had to:
- Set I2C scan to false
- Limit I2C freq. to 100khz
- Set wifi output power to 10. Although I did see something related to reducing tx output power for the S2 mini in one of the ESP-IDF updates, so Iām wondering if the newer version fixes this.
Without the output power setting, mine would just freeze and Iād have to unplug and plug it again. I also noticed that the wifi signal sensor output was just stuck at -34, even when changing the output power.

Wow, I wish I saw this earlier post 3 hours ago.
Something must have changed in a recent release of ESPHome (2024.5.x or 2024.6.x) because I did not need baud_rate: 0 under logger: before a recent update, and I was getting all kinds of crashes and UART issues. Consecutive failed boots into safe mode eventually let me narrow down the issue, but it took me pretty much all night. I had to actually remove power after reflashing to get things to work - a soft reset wasnāt hard enough.
BTW, if anyone is interested in a full working exampleā¦ I have one here
I have seen random issues until a full power cycle in the past.
With the ESP32-C3 chip soldered to the AirGradient boards, Iāve always has to have baud_rate: 0, but if you are using a different form factor, the pinout is different so all bets are off as to what is needed. I also saw you are using esp-idf, which I plan to explore in the near future, so going to keep your config handy for reference.
