the ‘outdoor’ version don’t need a big oled I think.
distinquish between 3 use cases
- desktop gateway with info panel connection
- outdoor gateway with a/solar or b/ POE
- mobile gateway with 3/4g module connection + gps onboard
don’t mount the display on interface board… very difficult to integrate in a nice enclosure, just the I2C connector is fine.
but … would’nt it be nice if your gateway is just a BT device that you can pair with a phone to get some status info ?
