Buying ​

The "B" matters: the older LCD-4 without it has other pins and doesn't work with this firmware.

Good to know ​

  • Runs from USB; the battery charger on the board is not used.
  • Two USB-C ports: one with a USB-to-serial chip for installing, one native.
  • Firmware before 0.6.1 showed a black screen after a cold start; update.
