Waveshare ESP32 -C6 – a small low-cost, low-power system on a chip microcontroller with WiFi and Bluetooth

It has a 1.47″ screen, and needs USB C plugged in for power

Claude was then given access and it flashed the software I designed onto it

Spark Graph to see Solar Generation vs House Load

Also purchased an ESP32 JC243W328C 2.8″ touchscreen

Printed 3D cases for both of them – once again no battery so needs plugging in

Small one was used for Solar Generation details at a glance

Larger one for a Dashboard of sorts that shows me Home Assistant details

Showing main details for the rooms in the house and the family members that are in or out

They can be programmed to show whatever you need or want
