Battery & Power
Your display is designed for long battery life with smart power management.
How It Works
Your display uses an e-ink screen, which only consumes power when the image changes — not while displaying it. Between updates, the device enters deep sleep to conserve battery.
Daytime: Wakes every 15 minutes to refresh weather data
Nighttime: Wakes every 60 minutes (less frequent to save battery)
The battery icon in the top-right corner of the status bar shows the current charge level. Your display settings page shows a percentage and estimated days until you need to charge.
Full
60–100% — plenty of charge remaining
Medium
30–60% — consider charging soon
Low
10–30% — charge soon
Critical
Below 10% — charge as soon as possible
Connect a USB-C cable to charge your display. The display continues to work normally while charging.
You can also leave the display permanently connected to USB-C power if you prefer not to rely on the battery.
- Night mode reduces update frequency automatically (enabled by default)
- Increase the sleep interval in display settings for even longer battery life
- Place the display where WiFi signal is strong — weak signal means longer wake times
- Firmware updates may skip if battery is below 30% to prevent issues
