Thingiverse. I’m going to get it printed at the library. I haven’t taken the plunge yet in 3D printing. Seen on my initial inspiration by https://www.reddit.com/user/geekuillaume/Thingiverse. I’m going to get it printed at the library. I haven’t taken the plunge yet in 3D printing. Seen on my initial inspiration here. Partial updates seem instantaneous. A full refresh is under a second. I think I saw with my settings it should be 500ms as it flickers the screen for exercising the eink pixels. I just switched to the component definition by ashald. Screen smearing (and supposedly burn in risk) has gone away. I have partial updates set at 10s, which looks like only happens if a sensor updates, and full refresh every 30 updates, or five minutes.

After u/CoalCruncher's post I tried the ashald driver as well, but after a few days it started burning in (using constant power through USB)... I quickly reverted back to the vbaksa repo but some ghosting still remained. At least no new burn-in since switching back. Exercising the screen (resetting many times) didn't seem to help. Before that it was running for weeks without burn-in with vbaksa.
