What hardware to buy

BLE-only screens stay awake on battery with Bluetooth always listening — no deep sleep — so you can send a new image whenever you want. ESP32 screens add Wi‑Fi and more flexibility, but use way more power when idle.

BLE-only screens — best battery life

Kit — pair with a compatible screen

ESP32 screens

A BLE-only screen is recommended for the best battery life. See BLE-only screens above if runtime on a charge matters more than Wi-Fi.

Kit — pair with a compatible screen

After you buy

Use the Toolbox to install firmware with the matching preset, try the BLE Tester in your browser, and see Seeed panel compatibility if you are mixing your own driver board and display. Reusing a retail Solum M3 tag? See Solum M3 compatibility and flashing notes.
