Case to hold a completed build of Luke Marzen's ESP32 E-Paper Weather Display found on github here: https://github.com/lmarzen/esp32-weather-epd/

If you follow lmarzen's instructions on github you'll need this case to hold:

  • a 7.5" E Ink Display, Controller and adapter
  • FireBeetle 2 ESP32-E Microcontroller
  • BME280 - Pressure, Temperature, and Humidity Sensor
  • 5000mah Lipo Battery (I used this one : https://a.co/d/g1CG0nQ)

This case is specifically designed with the mounting points to hold the Waveshare 7.5" 800x480px e-Paper display that is available here: https://www.waveshare.com/product/7.5inch-e-paper.htm

In addition to the parts specifically laid out in the github build you'll need the following:

  • 8 @ 3mm heat set inserts
  • 2 @ 2.5mm scres (the ones that come with the Waveshare display worked perfectly for me)

Future Changes to be made:

  • O/A mounting height of ESP32 is a bit high, if it was 5mm closer to the top of the case there'd be better clearance for the DuPont connectors.
  • Fix clearances on bottom cover to make cover slide in more thightly
  • add a bit more material below the USB-C port
  • Redesign battery holder to make a more solid attachment 
  • Add a fixed attachment point for the BME280 near a grille to allow outside air to determine the values it receives rather than those in the case
  • figure out mounting for a reset button
  • figure out if ESP 32 can be mounted further toward the center of the case to allow more clearance for the battery connector.
  • General tidying
