I'm really liking the look of this project that is a PCB for an ESP32 replacament of th eguts of a Google Nest Mini (2nd gen).

 

It looks like there is even a way to get ESPHome onto it so it can be used for voice control with Home Assistant.

I've never tried to order anything from PCBWay so I'll just end up stuffing it up.

 

 

 

I'm sure there are people on this forum who have and so maybe we could "team up" and order a few PCBs as a bulk lot and even save on shipping etc?

 

Thoughts?

Just got a reply back from PCBWay and looks like for 5 units assembled it works out to be US$32.50 per board excluding delivery.
There could be some potential for cheaper price for more boards possibly...

Although for US$32 for the board plus delivery plus an NZ$80 nest mini I suspect this is a bit too expensive and I'm sure there are cheaper options....

I am keen for two if there does end up being enough interest in a group order. I picked up a couple of units 2nd hand for this project :)

I would take two if it goes ahead (ChCh). Could probably rattle up some more buyers on the HA forum.
