ESP32 Support to enable the powerful ESP32 + RFM95/Lora + LiPo battery boards
-
I have now tried to build an indoor sensor with Homematic protocol and an e-paper display using Pa-Pa's AsksinPP and GxEPD libs. Now I'm far beyond the Atmegas328p Flash and RAM and close to the limit of an STM32 maple. So I will go for the little ESP32 barebone boards and a RFM69 (LoRa or ESPNow). I'm very happy, that ESP32 and RFM95 are now supported thanks to tekka!

To report weather data as you said, you can get away with a simple pro mini, without the need to use a powerful esp32. The problem with the esp32 boards you find around are development boards, so are not really optimized for low power operations
@gohan I will use this barebone ESP32S module without LED, USW, Voltage Regulator etc.
