Summary

  • An Arduino-powered, button-free e-reader with a 3D-printed case and an e-ink display has been created by DIY enthusiast fel88 and posted on instructables.com.
  • The device has a solar panel on the back and a reed switch for powering it on and off, while it can be navigated via accelerometer.
  • It has no unnecessary functionalities such as wifi or Bluetooth and can run for 880 pages on a single charge, or potentially indefinitely with the help of the attached solar panel.
  • The creator says that the lithium-ion capacitors should also improve the life cycle of the devise.
