ESP32-C6 dev board without PSRAM (8 MB flash). Muse shows status on its RGB light and uses the BOOT button. No PSRAM, so no home-network tunnel; Muse can still reach and control it. Adafruit listed the N8 at $9.95 (out of stock) on 2026-10-05.

Limits

Good to know

  • Boards without PSRAM (classic ESP32, ESP32-C6) run without the home-network tunnel; Muse can still reach and control them.
  • Pairing has no manufacturer verification and can't prevent an active man-in-the-middle attack.
  • Builds are signed with the included development key and never enable Secure Boot. Enable NVS encryption (CONFIG_HOMEHUB_NVS_ENCRYPTION).
  • Custom ESP32 commands are not a documented API yet: the command set (display.draw_url, sensors.read, camera.capture, ...) is hardcoded in main/app.c.
