Enhance Your ESP32 Project: A Stand for Elegance and Professionalism

hello Happy New Year I know we are too late but this is first video in this year so we're going to celebrate with shot of rakia rakia is homemade liquor similar to Moonshine but to us is more like sunshine so in the past year we we've seen a lot of good development boards and projects we created beautiful user interfaces and and most importantly we had fun in this video U I won't be showing you a new board or ESP 32 device instead I'll be showcasing a stand for M5 stack core two here I have another one and of course I will show you wait for it this example that I written exclusively for this setup I have lots of projects that I use without any issues um in my room here in my garage and in backyard but honestly none of them I would put in my living room in front of in front of me I have something that I would easily use in office or in a living room a few months ago man named Ken explained me that he and his team were working on a project and they needed some stand for M5 stack Core 2 for the cp32 device and most known stands are either 3D printed or made from Lego bricks so they decide to design their own stand that can sit on manager table a stand that looks elegant and professional and here it is and I I need admit it it is truly elegant and beautiful and very well made well maybe my example also helps a bit but this is indeed quality stand this is metal and here is this massive plastic and place to screw additional uh module sensors for example this is temperature and humidity sensor so you can see conditions in my room they also sent me this version so this is version 4 M5 dial we saw that board in my videos also nice but I decided to use this for my project I will share links uh so so you can check their products on their page they have all sorts of combination so it is possible to make stand for three for two for both square and circle one there are many combinations but before I show you this stand much better let's see my example so when I received this stand I needed something that will also be elegant and beautiful on manager table I'm not manager but I know I will use this with any issues so what I wanted is of course clock if you are clock addict you need to have clock which will also tell me date and week day and here I also programmed a little calendar which look nice and we have information like temperature and humidity in room M5 stack have very good power management chip so here I don't know can you see but here is uh battery voltage and here is current power consumation consummation so it is around 100 milliamps and brightness which is really low it is also important to say that this is not regular M5 stack core to like this one you can notice that this have a orange case that is because this is M5 stack core for AWS so this is M5 stack for um Amazon web services that is some kind of Internet of Things I think I'm not sure but this version of M5 stack Core 2 have additional uh have additional layer which contains some um security encryption chips there is also a larger battery inside and what is really interesting there are on each side there are five RGB LEDs so it can create this very cool looking effect and of course I'm not fan of changing colors and all that gaming RGB LEDs so I decided to turn only white color but if I press here now LEDs will be on Max brightness so you it is hard to see now but in the dark this can uh light whole room enough enough to walk so this can also be a very good night clock something you can put near your bed and light ho the room I also added this uh this men menu which can uh be used to set time or brightness of the screen or date and yes uh I forgot to say when I turn on these LEDs you can notice that power consumption is nearly half of Amper more than 500 milliamps so don't leave that turn on very long it is uh wise to use this one some sort of power supply not rely on battery because batteries will not give you more than one day so there is also additional layer that there is also power module and each stand came with with that power module so here is this connector and which is magnet and now my device is recharging like like always I will share code for this but this code will all only work on Core 2 abs and it will work only if you have this environment sensor I will also put links for devices I use but if you already have um M5 core regular M5 core uh core two I will I will also share this version of code so this is version for just clock and calendar because we don't have sensor and we don't have these LEDs so it will not light your room but this is still very nice and elegant clock you can use you can put even in your pocket if you want and and show it to your colleagues check description and you will find there all links and all codes and like always don't forget to subscribe if you want you can buy me coffee to support my work it helps a lot lately and that's it feel feel free to leave comment and I wish you very prosper and good New Year yes and if you plan to use this in order to uh to have this calendar properly when you set up date you also so need set up week date here keep that in mind goodbye and have a nice day
