Did anyone here get one of those Trmnl dashboards? I’ve been wanting to build an e-ink dashboard for years but it keeps not happening, so I ordered a Trmnl X as soon as I read about it.
There’s a bit of a delay on shipping, and early adopters on Reddit were negative, but I’m excited!
— apparently one of the issues was magnets not sufficient to hold it to a fridge. THE CASE HAS MAGNETS! AND THEY’RE UPDATING THEM!
There is a big list of plugins, including apple calendar and HA dashboard, which I’m most interested in
Anyhow, if you got one, please share your experience
I was tempted until I learned a bit more about the guy behind TRMNL.
Now I transformed a 4" supermarket price tag into a dashboard using the OpenEPaperLink project. It works fine but took some time to set up. And the ESP C6 that is talking to the tags crashes every few days. Still need to figure out how to fix that.
Do you have more info on this? I thought I’d read some questionable stuff about the guy but when I was looking into TRMNL again more recently I couldn’t find any of the dirty laundry and thought maybe I’d imagined it.
I read some vague language like this on Reddit as well. When I did my own digging, it came up empty. How does one indipendently verify these claims about the guy behind TRMNL. Also, I’m assuming the guy in question is Ryan Kulp, who is listed as the founder.
