Weeks on a charge
E-ink only sips power when the screen refreshes. A single charge lasts weeks, not hours.
Vol. 01 — Quiet home dashboards
Your home,
written in ink.
Tiny e‑ink panels that show the important stuff — then go back to sleep. No glare, no glow, just the moments that matter.

[01] Why InkView
Designed to be looked at, not through.
Phones flood you. Screens shout. InkView whispers — just the numbers, charts and states you actually need, rendered in crisp electronic ink.
Home Assistant native
Pulls live entities, automations, and dashboards straight from your HA instance. No cloud relay.
Victron VRM ready
Solar yield, battery state, load — directly from your VRM portal at the cadence you choose.
Sleep when you sleep
Quiet-hours schedule pauses refreshes overnight, stretching battery life by months.
Snap any screenshot
Send any dashboard image from your phone or server. It renders, dithered, on the panel.
Glance, not stare
No backlight, no glare, no nighttime glow. Paper-quiet on a shelf or by the bed.
[02] In the wild
Real hardware. Real data.
Hand-assembled prototypes, photographed on the workbench. Live VRM and Home Assistant data, no mockups.
[02] The hardware
Two sizes. One quiet idea.
Pick the panel that fits the wall — or the shelf, or the nightstand.

01 · Capture
Compose the view
Build the dashboard in Home Assistant or VRM. InkView snapshots it, dithers it, scales it for paper.
02 · Send
Push over local Wi-Fi
The device wakes, pulls the frame, refreshes the panel in under a second — then drops back to deep sleep.
03 · Glance
Walk past. Move on.
No app to open, no screen to wake. It’s just there, like a piece of paper that updates itself.
[03] Battery life
Sleeps when the house sleeps.
Quiet-hours schedule pauses refreshes overnight. No glow on the ceiling, no wasted power — and battery life that stretches into months instead of weeks.
