M5Stack Core Ink: The Inkling of the development boards

[@henriterhofte3740]

Thanks for the nice introductory video. You stated "online, couple of people state that they were able to lower the power consumption to 1.5 micro-amps". was this specific for the CoreIn, or just for the ESP32-PICOD4? Where can I read more about this?

[@notenoughtech]

If I remember correctly I was referring to the RTC present on the unit. It has been a while since I did this video so I can't recall the source exactly. (Unless it's linked in the article)

@@notenoughtech our initial measurements indicate around 1,0 microAmps for an M5CoreInk in power down mode using the RTC. We measured by replacing the M5CoreInk LiPo battery with the Nordic Power Profiler Kit 2 at 3,7 V.

Thank you Mat.

[@notenoughtech]

My pleasure!

Does the M5Burner got any custom firmware for the Core Ink? Thanks🎉

[@suhailraq]

Can i use it as a speech reader or ebook reader

[@haraldhohenhauser8541]

How long lasts the battery life when you used it?

[@notenoughtech]

This will strongly depend on how you use it. 2h of heavy use actively sending data back and forth. Or a couple of days if not weeks if you use sleep policies right

[@haraldhohenhauser8541]

@@notenoughtech I just want to use it to get the hourly electricity price. Means 1 time per hour i need to go out of deep sleep, turn wifi on and get the price from the api.

[@notenoughtech]

It should last days in this scenario

Great video, I hope youll have more subs soon!

[@notenoughtech]

Ha! Then I will have a difficult decision to make... :) While I'm small don't have the temptations to leave my dream job :)

[@Hendika]

Why settling with only having one dream job, if you can have two :D

[@notenoughtech]

I'd like to reserve some time for cycling haha :) I don't think I would make a great full time youtuber I care too little for trends and stats :) I just do things that interest me even if they are very niche. This is why I appreciate comments from anyone who share similar interests and find these interesting or helpful ;)

[@lindsayreid8347]

I seem to buying too many of these M5Stack bits and pieces!

[@notenoughtech]

It's a good hobby to have ;)

[@Humanbd230]
