micropython-lib VS TI_INA226_micropython

This is the current version of my code (excuse the mess it's become..), adapted from https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib/blob/7128d423c2e7c0309ac17a1e6ba873b909b24fcc/micropython/bluetooth/aioble/examples/temp_client.py

STM32WB55 running MicroPython sounds like it'd suit. Should be fine for the power budget and aioble gives you one of the best BLE libraries on any platform. Documentation is generally good, though BLE is a little light (with some good examples and an active Discord channel!).

Pico (non-W) doesn't have upip (or mip, as that replaces upip now) or urequests because it doesn't have internet access required by them. In theory, you can download urequests from: https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib/blob/master/python-ecosys/urequests/urequests.py or build your own MP image with it enabled. I don't know if it'll work as you want it to but it's worth a try.

Using SD-card on ESP8266 was more challenging. upip.install('sdcard') does not work.

But ChatGPT truly helped and suggested I find it in Github.

I don't think there's a mip list command or something like that. So your best bet is to look at the subdirectories in https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib for a list of installable packages.

Do give it another try if you get a chance; I'd be genuinely interested in hearing about your experience. Be sure to check out the awesome list and micropython-lib if you're looking to fill gaps. There are still many holes but they're rapidly being filled in.

I am currently trying to run the INA226 voltmeter on pico, I connected the pins and used this library to make it easier for myself to set it up, I run a slightly altered example code from the github page, that looks like this:
