Description
Made a silly CRT-style enclosure for a “cheap yellow display” (ESP32-2432S028R). Makes a great little desktop monitor for XTouch or any of your Smart Home monitors, and includes a functional power button and multi-hour battery for less than $25!
Only needs a few parts - a CYD, TP4056 charge module with booster, small LiPo battery, micro flashlight switch, snap-in USB-C jack, and a few bolts (4x M3x5, 1xM3x10, 2x M2x5). Soldering isn't all that advanced, just a few contacts to put together.
A complete project write-up and tuned print profiles are available on MW.
Looks great in an off-white material to make it look like an old sun-damaged CRT 🤣
