nrf52840 I presume. ESP32 needs a bit too much battery for a bow.

I should probably read into them before the world goes belly up. At the moment, I'm only somewhat knowledgeable about ESP and Arduino.

It's easy. Just get a nrf based device like the lil go echo and you are set.

You can flash all variants of Lora network software and it has a built-in rink display if you need to read messages without a phone and also battery and charging.

Thanks ๐Ÿ’–

Ooof deepdive. It ends for ne with avr cli and somebody else's code.

No worries. I'm too busy with other stuff anyway. ESP32 I use all the time and they're fine but hungry. I would like to create a battery operated sensor. But that is, I guess, out of the question for the ESP.

... one more thing on my "to check list" that I'll never complete!
