Hey,

What is the power source for this. It looks built-in from the pictures but I did not see a schematic or part for batteries.

edit: never mind it looks like that was just static displaying.

Hello and sorry for late reply,

There is no battery in this project, it requires external 5v input. It can be either connected directly from a USB port on the side or wire a connector directly to ESP8266 board and route it out from the back as shown in the image below.

Okay, thanks for the update. It works well! I am using this as a base for a weather station so it helped me get started.
