Re: powering ESP32 with a battery

We are currently using FANSO ER26500M in our devices (max continuous current 1500mA). There is also AA-sized FANSO ER14505M (max continuous current 400mA). Try to look for similar products from brands like EVE, Saft, Xeno. We are sourcing the batteries from https://www.tme.eu/en/ Not sure if they sh...

Re: powering ESP32 with a battery

Just be careful and check max continuous and peak currents of selected cell in case of LiSOCl2. Look for so-called "spiral" type which has special internal construction and is able to provide higher currents, this is important for devices with radio communication interfaces. In case of LiMnO2 always...

Re: powering ESP32 with a battery

Primary battery means non-rechargeable. But they have quite high capacity in comparison to rechargeable Lithium chemistries (e.g. 2Ah for high performance AA cell with price around 3EUR or D cell with 14Ah for approx. 8-10EUR).

Re: powering ESP32 with a battery

A note regarding long-running battery powered applications - do not forget to take into consideration self-discharge of rechargeable batteries (accumulators). It is roughly 50% per year, depending on battery chemistry. This is why applications which are expected to run for years without battery repl...

Re: ESP32FLASHWRITER

It seems that module termios is not available on Windows:
"Because it requires the termios module, it will work only on Unix."

Re: New ESP32 development board DMtech DEV01 with NB-IoT interface

The board exists in its first iteration which works quite well but needs some slight modifications. It would also be good to perform antenna impedance matching circuit tuning before mass production. Anyway NB-IoT interface works well with default values as well. The values are sourced from antenna d...
