MAX44009 is an excellent light sensor, very low power, good range, etc.

Here is another MicroPython driver, I've developed with 4 versions : normal, low memory usage, BBC Micro:bit, BBC Micro:bit with low memory usage :

Thanks, with your module it is a lot easier to encrypt/decrypt text and files.

I've asked about a lower power script for Pyboard D in topic "Low power support on Pyboard D : pyb.wfi, pyb.stop, pyb.standby(), etc", but this issue is open.

In topic "Power usage on Pyboard D" there are measurements with USB power. I need to make the tests using battery.

After charging via USB cable, my TTGO T-Watch-2020 works without the microUSB cable, no problems at all.
As I've said in the above post :

Time from battery full to empty, about 40 hours, idle, not connected to USB cable, pressing the button to turn the screen 2-3 times a day.

See this post at topic "ulab, or what you will - numpy on bare metal" citing a FFT benchmark comparing many MicroPython boards . My suggestions to speed up : - share your MicroPython so the community can try to suggest some specific optimizations; - as pointed by @Roberthh, try to use @micropython.n...

lists the MicroPython modules included with the firmware. No need to download them.

I assume rshell works with most boards, including ESP32/ESP8266? I'd definitely be interested in checking that out in addition to Thonny/uPyCraft - @dhylands @pythoncoder ? Depending of the firmware installed on ESP8266/ESP32/etc, it can be or not compatible with rshell, mpfshell, ampy, etc. So I r...

Once I have Linux up and running, do I still need to install UART drivers for ESP32/8266? No need to install USB serial drivers on Linux. Just needed is user permission to access '/dev/ttyACM0', '/dev/ttyUSB0', etc : - on Debian : $ sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER - on Manjaro/Arch : $ sudo gpassw...

Manjaro/Arch is another Linux distribution very practical to use for Python, MicroPython and microcontroller programming. Manjaro is a rolling release distribution, with packages a lot more up to date then other Linux ditributions. Manjaro has AUR packages from the community complementing the large ...
