Too bad that this runs using a battery, would have been nice if the Steam Machine included some pogo pins I/O for that kind of thing.
Where did you see the battery? I don't see one mentioned anywhere
For some reason the battery isn't mentioned in the parts list but it's shown in the video and mentioned in the instructions. Would be pretty easy to power the esp feather with a dcdc converter off of a USB port or something assuming it doesn't take 5v directly
Esp feather will take 5v directly, and usually has a USB port on it
