Low power dream

Using this for a battery-powered label maker. The fact that it holds the image without power is a game changer. The red ink is vibrant and distinct.

Great screen, slow refresh

Image quality is crisp and the colors pop nicely. Just remember that e-ink is not for video; the refresh rate is slow as expected for this technology. Works flawlessly with my Arduino setup.

Nice addition to my retro console

Added this to a handheld emulator build. It gives a unique paper-like feel to the menu system. Not for gaming action, but perfect for static interfaces.

Good but requires careful wiring

The display works well once connected, but beginners should be careful with the 3.3V vs 5V logic levels. I almost fried my Pi before checking the wiki. Once sorted, it looks amazing.

Excellent documentation

Waveshare always provides great wikis and code examples. I had this running in under an hour. The red accent color adds a nice professional touch to my dashboard display.

Perfect for my weather station project

The red/black/white contrast is excellent and very easy to read outdoors. Setup with Raspberry Pi 4 was straightforward using the provided Python libraries. Highly recommended for IoT displays.

5 FAQ

Q: Do you provide C++ libraries for ESP32 compatibility?

A: Yes, we offer open-source C++ libraries for ESP32 on our official Wiki page, along with example projects to get you started quickly.

Q: Is the red color bright enough to be seen in direct sunlight?

A: Absolutely. One of the main advantages of E-Ink is its readability in direct sunlight, and the red pigment remains clearly visible even in bright conditions.

Q: Does this module come with a HAT for direct connection to Raspberry Pi?

A: Yes, this module typically includes a HAT designed for direct stacking on Raspberry Pi models, eliminating the need for extra jumper wires.

Q: Can I use this display with 5V Arduino boards like the Uno?

A: Yes, but you must ensure the logic level converter is used or configure the jumpers correctly, as the display operates at 3.3V logic while the Uno uses 5V.

Q: How long does the battery last if used in a portable project?

A: Since E-Ink only consumes power during screen updates, battery life depends on update frequency. With one update per hour, a small battery could last several months.
