Seeed Tracker L1 E-Ink. My only issue is that this case orients the screen 90 degrees off of the joystick mapping. I saw something about screen and joystick modifications coming to the inkhub interface but it doesn’t seem to be in the stable beta branch yet.

    Loving the e-ink screen

    My favorite node is an e-ink e290 (heltec). Unfortunately

    1. it’s not supported on MC yet, and my local mesh recently switched to MC
    2. cases are effectively nonexistent – might have to rent a printer at a makerspace or library and make one

      Not sure about this one, but it depends on how you program it. If you program it like an led, it’s horrible. But if you do it properly it’s pretty fast. Animations kill the refresh rate. You can draw a new screen and refresh the whole screen in like half a second. But if you do something like a button animation where you change the color of the button then back then refresh the screen, you have three changes which can take a second and a half.

      So, yes, if done well, you can send and receive messages on e-ink fairly well.

      Unsure about this product specifically.
