So big. I've been a fan of this technology since Sony's first one about twenty years ago, only recently was able to get one big enough for my liking.

The retail store I worked at in 2020 had an e-ink sign that was included as part of a display, and when the display had to come down they told us to throw the whole thing away. Management wouldn't let me take it home and stuck it in the compactor, I was so fucking pissed.

Jokes on them though, the batteries didn't like being crushed and started a fire.

Btw Blönsdorf, Brandenburg

We need that on EV charging stations too, you just cannot read anything under direct sunlight

I say a few at JR Osaka station last week, they look neat

They're all over small train and bus stations in some regions.

I think it may be a manufacturer: https://www.dresden-elektronik.de/verkehr/e-paper-display.html

I hate them. I can't read them.

the fact that e-ink isn't standard for outdoor displays yet pains me so much, instead we're not only drawing a bunch of electricity to power LCD displays but then ontop of that we have to power fans to cool them down! It's insane!!

If we could at least use OLED panels it wouldn't be too horrifying, but jesus christ LCD feels like using incandescent bulbs
