Description：

Tired of using boring black and white E-ink display? Let’s add a spicy color to it! This is a 2.9 inch Red-Black-white E-ink display with 296x128 pixels resolution. The red is good, but not always, because of the limitation of the E-ink display technology, the refresh time for Red E-ink display is much longer than Black-White version, this E-ink display refresh time is 12 secs! Let’s hope the technology will solve this soon, until then, enjoy this red E-ink first!

Usage:

• Price tag for supermarket, shop
• Industry controller device
• Low power Consumption product and project
• About E Ink display:

Electronic Ink or as we like to think, Everlasting Ink, imitates the look of normal ink on paper. Famous for its use in E-Readers, it has high visibility and contrast, a wide viewing angle, and low power requirements. In fact, once you program the display with text or images, it will last and last, even when there is no battery powering it.

One of the great benefits of this type of method is that power is only required to change the display. Another is its readability. Mimicking ink on paper, it is easy on the eyes and reads well in direct sunlight.

As a maker or creative engineer, how can you not put this is E Ink module in your storage box?!
