I also have got a e1001 yest some days ago. I got issues with the screen flashing several time on screen updates. I tried instead model: 7.50inv2p. This variant supports partial updates. It works perfectly. And at least my e1001 supports it. Just give it a try. It is worth it.
I have designed a frame with my 3D printer so that the screen (both the reterminal E1001 and E1002) fits perfectly into the Ikea Rodalm frame. You can download it from this link (and, by the way, see a small spoiler of the ‘comic dashboard’ I created with the E1002 ).
I just got an E1002. So far managed to get a photo onto it via SenseCraft, but haven’t been able to get ESPHome to connect/write to it. The E1002 seems to do a LOT of flashing/rendering to get the colors all working, which is kind of annoying. We’ll see how it goes once I get more details set up.
It does! It is supposed to need more time to load the image because of the colors, but it wasn’t enough for me to use full color images, until i found a workaround
Can someone help me with this problem with a Seeed e1001? It displays sensor values form HA, but after waking up it needs too much time to display them correctly. So the values stay empty or say ‘NA’.
To save energy I send the device to sleep fo 4.5 min and make it wake up for 30s.
As a remedy I update the display a second time during every wake cycle. But this is not optimal since the missing information is still displayed between the intervals.
Is there a way to not update the display unless the sensor data has been retrieved succesfully? Or do you see an even better solution?
Hi. I am also using this ePaper after a long journey trying whatever different things. I like, that they are “complete”, and you just can hang them on the wall. My project is to show calendar data to have it hanging on a room that can be “booked” for meetings.
The E1001 is deep-sleeping most of the time, but wakes up, depending on the schedule of the room and if someone presses the green button. Problem I have with the green button, that the start takes “too long”, due to the flickering problem. Can you share a piece of code here, to give me a kickstart to make the start less flickering.
thank you in advance

Many thanks. I do have to improve my spanish knowledge which does not exist at the moment, but as computer language is quite internation, I think I will make it.
