This is a great display for projects with low power consumption

Poor Software Library
The demo sketch works nicely. However, if you try to go beyond that, it is like having your teeth pulled with no pain killers! You quickly find that there is no description of why some operations have to be executed in a particular order or th acceptable range of values for library functions. If this is the level of provided support, would not recommend any WaveShare ePAPER displays.

no cable
Did not come with the cable as shown and described in the product description. Where do I get one?

Ordered 4, received a smattering of different board revs
Got some V1's that worked, some V2's, and some V1's that didn't work that might have been a different board rev (?)As for the boards themselves, it would be nice if Waveshare could do the following:- Each board should have 2 connectors so they can be daisy-chained- Kill the DC pin. All data and configuration should go through MOSI.- Kill the BUSY pin. That should go through MISO. Why can't things be plain old standard SPI and not SPI + a few other random pins?It would be ideal if the boards could have VCC, GND, MOSI, MISO, SCK all daisy chained and one CS pin for each display. There should be NO need for any other wires. Keep things simple!

They were good, but less so now.
The first few of the 1.54" displays I bought were great. The next batch, though, differed from the description and photos in two ways:1. The connector was changed from one with 2.54mm (0.1") pitch to one with 2.0mm pitch. (That means that my printed circuit boards, which I designed and had made based on the units in the first order, won't work.)2. More importantly, they added a voltage regulator and a level-shifting IC to the blue board, to allow it to interface with 5V systems. But those components change the "deep sleep" current from less than 10 uA to over 150 uA! That's a disaster when you're trying to maximize battery life. The beauty of e-paper (e-ink) displays is that they use almost no current when the display is static, and they ruined that with the new version of this module.
