I preferred the Beetle ESP32-C6 because it has a built-in voltage divider, so I prepared a 3D model compatible with my chosen microcontroller.

My goal is to eliminate single-use battery usage, which I believe is increasing as smart home systems become more common in every household. In terms of single-charge battery life, it has a much shorter operational lifespan compared to branded devices, and I haven't yet figured out why. My tests are ongoing.

Whether it lasts long or just 3–4 months, I made the LiPo battery easily removable so it can be taken out and recharged. Similarly, for programming convenience, the ESP32 side is also removable. To connect the LiPo battery and ESP32-C6 cases, I used standard female and male pins — of course, a small amount of glue is needed, but the goal was to create this design using things you’d likely already have at home if you’re into these kinds of projects. Otherwise, more elegant and zero-tolerance male/female jacks could have been used.

That’s all I have to say. :)
