    Hi Nick, thank you for posting. Am I right in thinking that the 4 screws mean that it cannot be mounted flush to the inside of a project box opening? They seem awkwardly positioned.

    I bought some of these to create an engine and fuel monitoring system since it is low current and easily readable. But the problem is that it is not recommended for temperatures below 0 C or above 40 C. Otherwise I think it is a great display option.

  • @scottwood9181
    @scottwood9181 6 лет назад

    Assuming it does everything you show and if more libraries can be made that don't consume as much memory, it would definitely be worth the price and then some. I just ordered one of the two color versions and have been watching for e-paper displays for some times. As far as your lower-power demonstration, that's why I've wanted one. Did you actually note that you can completely disconnect it? That's the thing that makes e-paper so low power. It can technically consume 0 mamps between updates. If you're getting 0.01, that's likely just a passive drain through the connected board.

    • @andreisima1977
      @andreisima1977 6 лет назад +1

      Then you need to cover some steps in the process
      1. Learn Python or C in order to develop business logic on your RPi.
      2. Investigate / Decide how different devices will communicate and on what protocol. MQTT client / broker is a good option but you need to pay attention on security.
      3. You will need to create what is called a single state of truth so all of your devices can rely on that.
      4. I would investigate RPi as the manager of other devices and more like the central brain. RPi is a good development board but has some drawbacks, one of them is the booting time.
      5. Power consumption. You will mostly need some sensors / switches in places where power from wall plug is not available. Then you will need to power them from rechargeable options and then you will be faced with some power consumption issues.
      6. Investigate low power boards (ESP32 or ESP8266). Learn about LoRa.
      7. For voice command investigate Alexa from Amazon. Some features might be interesting. I do not implement Voice commands on my projects.

    It has a very limited use. An 8.5"x11" version will make a great PDF reader.
    eBook readers, are the majority of this technology's market.
    You can power an LCD or any other peripheral that requires < 20mA to operate, directly from an Arduino port, to save power on a regular LCD like the Nokia.
    The only advantage I can see, is it keeps its display with power off.

      Search for the driver IC IL3820. This will limit your results to sellers that are competent enough to provide real information as opposed to marketing and fake label branding. I've seen this e-paper display as low as $5.99 (currently out of stock) if you don't mind ribbon cables instead of modules. I'd rather build a proper voltage buffer/regulator anyways.

    • @UpcycleElectronics
      @UpcycleElectronics 6 лет назад +1

      fouzai alaa
      No one raises the prices like this. You may see limited search results that reflect different prices, but eBay and AliExpress are not in control of the prices of goods listed by any seller. You protect yourself from search result scams by using tracking blockers while searching or shopping for goods. Multi vendor sales platforms are far more focused on matching customers to better quality sellers that produce a habitual customer on the platform. eBay is focused on product diversity, Amazon is all about the speed of delivery, and AliEx is designed for the lowest possible price. Stereotypically, you can only choose one of the three options. Get it fast, and you'll pay more and have limited options. Buy something unique and you'll pay more and wait longer. Get the best price, and you'll have limited options, and will need to wait. There's no free lunch. If your on a platform and searching for a bunch of surface type terms, the listings shown at the top will usually be focused on sellers that ship quickly, are more consistent, and cause less problems. These listings usually cost a bit more because the person/people running the business are intelligent and competent enough to calculate the overhead and cost of doing business instead of cutting margins below the operational cost of their business.
      I don't sell on eBay currently but sold just under $150k in high end Bicycle stuff on the platform in 2014. The pricing of individual items is done 100% by the seller and can not change.

    • @fouzaialaa7962
      @fouzaialaa7962 6 лет назад

      dude im super extra sure ....ebay and amazon will raise the price on there own if that particular item gets a load of hits in at the same time ....i dont know about there sorting algorithm for who appears first but the price algorithm is there .....lets say a big yt channel like bigCliveDotCom or Unbox therapy uploads a video showing a gadget they got from ebay and they provide a link in the description for it ..... in the video they mention they got it for 15$ but when you click the link its 20$ .........in case of unboxtherapy a video can get up to 8 million views if only 20% click the link in the description thats almost 1.5 million views th that item and if only 20% buy the item ....thats almost 400.000 ppl buying the same item ....... when ebay detects that pattern they will rise the price to make money and to prevent that item from being sold out .....and you agree on it in the terms of service !!!! big sites like ebay amazon have different algorithms for everything they are always under development and they are multi billions sites ....its not a random site everything is calculated

    You are talking a litle to fast (your accent makes it hard to hear what You are say when You are speaking so fast)

      Thank you for your feedback. If you can't understand what I see, please enable the subtitles option! I will try to speak slower in the next videos. Cheers!
