Purchasing:
- The Lilygo Tdisplay is a cheap and small ESP32/screen development board.
- You can either attach a keypad membrane or use the breakout board Lilygo specifically made for the LNURLPoS!
- Any 3.7V lithium iron flat battery with 1.25mm JST connector should be fine. Go for at least 1000 mAh. If you want the battery to fit inside the breakout board, max. dimensions are 40x52x11mm. Example 1100 mAh 3.7V battery.
