After playing around with the idea of an RGB version of the original model, I've finished a design that has 3 channels instead of the 1 present on the original.
This means you can now control RGB LED strips over WiFi for < $5!
The overall design has been improved, resulting in beefed up current ratings amongst others. You can now draw 8.5A per channel! That means you can hook up 306 Watts of LED strip awesomeness, pretty cool.
I've ordered the new modules, and am waiting for the PCBs to arrive. Check out a preview here: http://dirtypcbs.com/store/designer/details/tjclement/1329/5-esp8266-rgb-led-dimmer.
The Eagle files can be found on Github as per usual :)

Cool project! You should make an instructible/project for this too. It will greatly help. Even though this might seem obvious your writeup specific to RGB Dimmer will make everything even more clear.
Are you sure? yes | no
