     btw the top part is not gonna be with pointy corners like that, that's the screen of classic reform. it will be rounded to match the bottom half

     @mntmn can you still plug it straight into a solar panel like the classic Reform?

     Are those sodium ion cells?
     Cool, have not seen such cells out in the wild.
     Did you design charging circuit yourself as well? Must have been a bit more complicated as standard Li-ion components do not work(/are not optimal), as cut-off voltage limits are different?
