Next UM #livestream - not sure what I'm doing yet, but I'm sure it will be epic, or not :) youtube.com/live/RrBXN1xyz…

Looks like Unexpected Maker has been doing some Unexpected Cooking in the lab! Hardware-controlled dual antenna switching, onboard fuel gauge, and a modular M.2 style board caught my attention.

Gonna try to work out how this #livestream thing works again... It's been so long, I'm sure I can't remember... I hope to see some of you in the chat! youtube.com/live/dJ53Czd_g… #maker #projects #chat #stuff

New Secret Product - First panel being assembled - From the Juki's point of view! youtu.be/3ADej1w_b4w #pcb #assembly #manufacturing #jukicam

I just finished adding a numeric only on-screen keyboard to #SQUiXL that auto switches to this layout based on the datatype of the ui_control - it's pretty snazzy! #maker #projects #coding #uix

A look at how the sausage, er, the #SQUiXL is made... low volume manufacturing at it's finest! youtu.be/CF7BVJy6LuU #maker #manufacturing #electronics

New on Lectronz: SQUiXL lectronz.com/products/squixl by @unexpectedmaker #ESP32 #Displays #WiFi
Next #livestream I'm taking a break from working on #SQUiXL by working on a 3D engine for #SQUiXL - It's logical, in a Seon kind of way! I hope to see you there... #maker #3d #coding #fun youtube.com/live/bgxoRAho4…

I just pushed a new #SQUiXL firmware update that adds a bunch of cool things including user uploadable wallpaper. I'll be adding support for multiple wallpapers down the track, with random selection on bootup, but this is a great start! unexpectedmaker.com/squixl #maker #coding #uix

Next #Livestream *may* be #SQUiXL-y, it "may" be battery #rant-y.. it also "may" be something else entirely, but what it wont be is - boring! I hope you can join... youtube.com/live/fOp9WO9gV… #maker #products #journey

What an Awesome gadget from @unexpectedmaker How awesome does that look?! Can't wait to get mine so I can get my HA gauges and other useful info working on it. Might even integrate my PWS into it. Would look way better than my current one. Portable too! unexpectedmaker.com/shop.html#!/SQ…
