Standby power: 170° Precautions 1.For E-paper displays that support partial refresh, please note that you cannot refresh them with the partial refresh mode all the time. After refreshing partially several times, you need to fully refresh EPD once. Otherwise, the display effect will be abnormal, which cannot be repaired!

Works well. It is somewhat slow, but that is typical for E-Ink. Review: Works well - Pros: -crisp display -easy to script with python Cons: -a little slower to update than the black/white only display. It takes about 10 seconds to init the screen and update it using a simple clock script. The black/white takes more like 5 seconds. I assume this is inherent in the design/function of the 3 color display. It's not a huge deal. ## Features - This is 2.13inch E-Paper HAT (B) E-Ink display HAT, 250x122 resolution, with embedded controller, communicating via SPI interface, supports red, black, and white three-color display.
