## Backstory
Well I have many ESPSomfy RTS devices and many different ESP32 versions. In testing different boards for compatibility, I bought some Xiao Mini ESP32s3 boards to try them out. Along, with the s3s I bought a few C3s and S2s all in the mini form factor. A few of these boards use external WiFi antennas and some use little ceramic antennas. In testing, all of them performed well. Those with the ceramic antennas had weaker WiFi reception but it was adequate if the WiFi network was good.
The Xiao S3 however comes with an external sticker antenna for the WiFi. Even in places where I expected to have spotty connectivity it performed exceedingly well and the WiFi is solid. This little bugger is tiny for a size comparison see the pic below. The ESP32-WROOM module is on the left and the Xiao Mini ESP32s3 is on the right. The quarter is there for size comparison since that is about all the value it has these days.
