Review

Herbert.Ritter Jul 02, 2021

I use Firebeetle ESP 32 for battery bufferred IoT. It works great with Deep sleep, because it needs only 10 micro amps and it runs a long time on a 1500 mAh LiPo. The onboard charging device makes it easy to make a complete project fastl available. Great product!

Christopher. May 05, 2021

I believe this is the best ESP32 microcontroller on the market for four reasons: 1. The documentation and support are incredible. Better than any other specific brand of ESP32 controller I've seen. 2. Deep sleep actually means deep sleep. 10 microamps. Virtually no other ESP32 actually achieves anywhere near this. Most hover in the low milliamps. 3. Built-in connector and support for 3.7 volt rechargeable Lithium Polymer (Lipo) batteries. 4. Price is the same or less than other vendors!

It's very nice development board, nice soldered and top quality.
