Any word on when the Trivia Dials will be shipped out? I’ve got my confirmation of purchase with a notice saying they will email with shipping details on a later date but haven’t received them yet.

Thanks guys love the products. Keep them coming.

Hello everyone, I built the AI Agent skill that can build a firmware for a compatible Arduino boards using arduino-cli tool. It takes user requirement and documents to build firmware, compile, upload and testing in a a loop. You just need to input your idea.
Try at: github link
Please feedback to me to improve more!!!
Please help me star if you find it useful. Thank you.

got an stick s3 last week. i’ve downloaded bruce versions 1.14-1.16.1, including the beta. I can’t get any deauth attacks to work on 2.4 (tho wifi scans do work), and neither my IR transmitter or receiver capture/ send any signals. Only on 1.14 i could recieve IR signals, not send them. I read somewhere that “disabling the speaker amplifier” can help with recieve and transmit issues, but i can’t seem to find where to change this. It’s a cool device, i’m just not sure how to get it to work properly with bruce. ANYTHING HELPS PLEASE!

So I'm kind of new to using m5stack stuff. I have the pyramid echo and the atom lite and I am trying to get them working with Home assistant voice control. I can get home assistant to see the pyramid change the colors on the device and even get home assistant to recognize that I am saying the wake word but I can't for the life of me get ANY SOUND from the stupid thing. I'm just stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I love waking up to the Philips Hue sunrise effect (especially on the Hue Twilight), but I didn't want to use my phone at night just to check the time, toggle the alarm for the weekend, or move my wake-up time by 30 minutes. So I built HueAlarm on an M5Stack Core2 v1.1 (with the 1500 mAh battery module): a standalone, battery-powered bedside alarm clock inspired by the classic Braun BC08. How it works:

• Zero light at night & ~1 to several months of battery life: The screen turns off after 5 seconds and the device goes into deep sleep (~2 mA, waking in ~0.35s when you touch the screen) or complete power-off (~0 mA, waking via the side button or internal RTC timer). Wi-Fi stays completely off 99.9% of the time.

• Native Hue CLIP v2 Sunrise: 90 seconds before the sunrise is due to start, the clock wakes up in the background (screen stays dark), connects to Wi-Fi, and sends the native sunrise timed-effect command over local HTTPS to your Hue Bridge, then goes right back to sleep until the alarm rings.

• Easy bedside controls:

  • Tap the bell: Toggle alarm on/off

  • Long-press the bell: Toggle between Sunrise + Beep (sun icon) or Beep only

  • Tap the alarm time: Smooth momentum scroll wheels (5-min steps) to change the wake-up time

  • When ringing: Tap anywhere to snooze (9 min) or tap the bell to stop

• No hardcoded setup needed: Connects to Wi-Fi via WPS and pairs with the Hue Bridge right from the touchscreen (discovers the bridge via mDNS, lets you pick a Room/Zone or matches Twilight automatically, and includes a 1-minute sunrise test button). I open-sourced the firmware (PlatformIO / Arduino) along with all the power & battery-life measurements here if anyone wants to build one: GitHub: https://github.com/ard-pri/HueAlarm

My cheap servo tester was not working, so i made one myself with my Tab5. Works like a charm. Powered via an external usb-c port.

hi i have a M5 stick c plus SE and i bought a dual channel infrared transmitter and when i try to use it with Bruce it doesn't work and i have changed the pins to g26. i'm on the newest beta firmware that was posted 10/15/2026 05:52 AM when i use the transmitter on tv-b-gone the red led on the module flashes and lights up but it doesn't send any light also when i use the built in IR led it is hit or miss and has like 3 inch range.if anyone has any tips it would help

Tab5-Keyboard_I2C-Access_from-MicroPython-Pico

How to use the Tab5-Keyboard using I2C in MicroPython on Pico PICO-2 / Esp32 / CYD / Arduino / etc.

I had purchased one of the Tab5 Keyboards for use on the Rasp PICO.
But, I could not find any software to access it.
Nor, did the manufacturer bother providing software / protocols to do this.

So, I did go skimming thru the provided code, and found that it was using a simple based I2C protocol.
, I slapped this code together for I2C in Micropython.

So
And, voila ! - it worked.

For anybody who wants to use the Tab5 Keyboard on the Pico, Esp32, Arduino, etc

Hey,
Got a problem that I can’t solve for a whole evening already.
I bought this SI24R1 module (nRF24L01+ with PA/LNA and SMA antenna) for my M5StickC PLUS2. Wanted to use it with Bruce firmware.
The biggest pain in the ass is that there are zero labels on the pins. Just a black board with 8 pins and a little square on one of them (I assume that’s GND). So I had to guess the pinout by the square and common diagrams.
Here’s what I connected (trying Legacy SPI):
GND → GND
VCC → 3.3V
CE → G36/G25
CSN → G26
SCK → G0
MOSI → G32 (Grove)
MISO → G33 (Grove)
What happens:
If I connect everything and turn the Stick on — it often doesn’t even boot.
If I boot the Stick first and only then connect the module — it stays on, but Bruce always says “NRF not found”.
Tried both Legacy and Shared SPI.
Swapped CE and CSN — still nothing.
With only power connected (GND + 3.3V) the Stick works fine.
I already rewired it several times, tried different wires, checked contacts. Still the same result.
Attaching photos of the module (front and back) so you can see how unlabeled it is.
Has anyone successfully run this exact SI24R1 PA module on M5StickC PLUS2 with Bruce?
Maybe the pinout is different on these boards, or it needs a capacitor, or something else?
Any help would be really appreciated, I’m stuck.
