Yeah! Same here!
Is it running esphome?
The dimensions are 145.5 x 105mm. 70mm deep.
This is so nice - are you able to share your yaml for the weather screen, i am just trying to set one up and an example config would be really helpful.
Andy
@psp888 it would really be in the spirit of this open source community if you could share your yaml and your 3D print files.
Community Guides https://community.home-assistant.io/c/community-guides/51 is a good place to put a howto, with a link back here. Also thingiverse is a good place to put the 3d print files.
It is not compulsory of course, but it would point to you being a good community citizen

Nah but plenty of people have expressed interest and I think it would make a good project to write up. I should have said that I am more than willing to help do a write up!
Me too but I don’t think there’s any onous. Would be appreciated though.
Afternoon - I have ploughed on and managed to get the display running - i am using my own weather data but the config could be easily changed for Open Weather etc.
Yaml so far is below (edited with the latest version) - i was wondering if anyone knows how to add the weather forecast element, looking to add three icons at the bottom of the display to show the next three days weather from openweather…

Just to update - I have made some progress and have published a case on thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4692418) I have also commented my Yaml as it might be useful for those starting out with eink and esphome (below).
will do a proper guide in the new year

Evening - I am now looking at doing the same thing on the 4.2 inch waveshare screen - this screen does not have partial updates so I’m using a timed refresh.
My problem is all the sensors come in as NAN with the screen refreshing before the data arrives - I have looked up all the forums (and posted but prob should have posted in this thread first)
I thought i had solved it - by wrapping my print function in an has_state (for example):
Copy to clipboard
if (id(outtemp).has_state()) {
it.printf(40, 85, id(roboto), "%.1f", id(outtemp).state);
}
but no joy.
I am at a loss, any ideas or hints would be great, the data is all in HA via mqtt, not sure if that would make a difference.

@psp888. Is there a chance you will post your 3 display casing print file for everyone or is that a ‘no’?
I’m sure it would be much appreciated.
Have you verified there are actually MQTT topics with the information?
MQTT Explorer is great for this.
I have a 4.2" waveshare monocrome display; I at the moment just ran a python script to make a clock. I have it on a pi and not an ESP device. The display was a nice extra, the main purpose of the pi is the USB speaker I use for Text to Speech via Kodi on the pi via Home Assistant. I need to print a new case, but not bad for a first attempt.

Thanks for the reply - nice clock and case.
Yep i am using MQTT Explorer - your right it is great. I also have another display next to it, updating on a 2.9 inch screen (these have partial updates).
The pi works well with eink screens and i guess I’m a little more at ease with python than c++ - i did a tutorial on making a Time, News and Headline device using the InkyWhat screen last year ([https://connected-environments.org/making/the/]
Just for the life of me I cant get it working with HA (well it works but NAN on all data).
edit - solved! i had somehow forgotten to integrate the new esp32 to HA! ugh a rookie error…

Thought those interested in the thread might like to see the 4.2 inch version of using eink for HA data. The layout is a little challenging as there is no style sheet so its x/y pixels and the centre align needs tweaking according to the data…
I was going to do a write up so people dont have to go through the hoops i had to to learn it… as ever with things its quite easy once you know how, but knowing how took a few threads, a couple of bricking the node mcu and a few tweaks on the 3D print (which i will put on thingiverse)…

Just updating the 2.9 inch display to include a clock, maximum wind gust and some minor layout changes - now also updated on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4692418)

I have a slightly unique issue. When I loose internet (due to power outages), I have have a generator for backup power but I loose connection to a time server. I noticed that over an 4 hour period my time is off by over 30 mins.
What are some good options here; I’m running my display on a pi and not an ESP.
My Home Assistant instance is on a PC with a real time clock.
So, should I pull the time from a GPS; a docker network time server, …
