Made a home assistant powered this is fine meme using an esp32-c3 supermini which by pure luck fits perfectly inside this thing.

It is wired in a way that the button on the back still works and runs off the batteries, but once you feed it power via the USB-C port, the esp32 makes it smart.

My plan is to integrate it into our ticket system at work. Whenever there is a P1, this is fine lights up.

Github code here:

Video of home assistant activation here;

Local API command for activation: curl -X POST

remove the black pads to get access to the screws

esp32-c3 supermini will fit perfectly on the left of the main board

cut a hole in a box

stuck a cable in the box

final product

the esp config has the web server enabled so you can activate it using the local API (standard curl stuff)
