pwnagotchi tft display manufacturer

The “vanilla” hardware setup for a Pwnagotchi is a Raspberry Pi 0 W (usually referred to as RPi0W throughout this documentation). Most development and testing has been conducted on Pwnagotchis living in RPi0W bodies configured as an USB ethernet gadget device (in order to connect to it via USB). That said:

In fact, technically ANY GNU/Linux computer with a WiFi interface that supports monitor mode could be used to host a Pwnagotchi—given the appropriate configuration tweaks.

If you’re going to be taking your Pwnagotchi out into the world to find new and exciting WiFi environments (!), you’re going to need to power it with an external battery. Depending on your priorities, you may only need a small battery if you’re just going to be out for a couple hours. But if you’re going to be out all day, you might need something bigger. How do you know what you’ll need to keep your Pwnagotchi pwning?

Happily, our users have submitted some preliminary benchmarks using some popular batteries to help give you a sense for how long a particular battery is likely to be able to power your Pwnagotchi when you take it out into the WiFi wilderness. :)

If you want to use the web UI (instead of an e-ink display attached to your unit"s RPi0W) to see your Pwnagotchi"s face, check out the web UI doc for more details on using the web UI.

Before purchasing a display, see Recommendations for more details about choosing the right display. If you find yourself struggling with the screen you’ve chosen, there are dedicated #waveshare and #inky channels for troubleshooting in the Pwnagotchi Slack.

Not all displays are created equally! TFT displays, for example, work similar to an HDMI display, and they are NOT supported. Currently, all the officially-supported eInk displays are SPI displays. If you are still interested in using unsupported displays, you may be able to find a community-submitted hack in the Screens section of the Hacks page. We are not responsible for anything you break by trying to use any display that is not officially supported by the development team!

Some of the supported displays support both Black & White and Colored versions. One common question whether there are meaningful differences between the two. There are:

Color displays have a much slower refresh rate. In some cases, it can take up to 15 seconds; if slow refresh rates are something that you want to avoid, we recommend you use B&W displays.

will always have the most updated and best supported UI elements; Pwnagotchi’s primary developer (@evilsocket) will be testing new features exclusively on Waveshare V2s.

Avoid the Waveshare eInk 3-color display. The refresh time is 15 seconds. It can be over-driven much faster with a slight risk of burn-in by setting the color to ‘fastAndFurious’, which brings the refresh down to about 1 second. This might damage the display, so use it only if you understand the risk.

The Pimoroni Inky pHAT has a refresh time of several seconds. An update is available to lower the refresh time to sub-second, though increasing the risk of burn-in or artifacts by setting the color to ‘fastAndFurious’ This might damage the display, so use it only if you understand the risk.

The DFRobot display has partial refresh support, two hardware GPIO buttons, as well as a passthrough header for connecting other things, like serial GPS modules, RTCs, LEDs, etc.

We recommend housing your Pwnagotchi’s body in a case if you don’t want your Pwnagotchi to get dirty (or short the GPIO pins on the back, or be mistaken for a bomb…).

If you’re running your Pwnagotchi in headless mode (AKA without a screen) and are using its web UI instead of an e-ink screen, any generic case for a RPi0W ought to do the trick. But if you’ve installed an e-ink screen on your RPi0W in order to view your Pwnagotchi’s face without any external equipment, you’ll probably need to make or acquire a custom case.

@ohaithear’s 10 Pwnagotchi Cases is a collection of cases for all popular Pwnagotchi configurations: Waveshare and Inky screens, slimagotchi builds, PiSugar external battery, and an optional carabiner loop.

@elkentaro’s Pwnagotchi case on Thingiverse for use with a Raspberry Pi 0 and a Waveshare e-ink screen. There is 71.5x34x20mm available for the acrylic plate on the 3D printed model. (MK3S, PET, 0.25mm extruder, 0.15mm layer height.)

@3MUl0R’s Pwnagotchi case for RPi0W with Inky pHAT is the only case (that we are aware of) designed to fit the RPi0Ws fitted with the Inky pHAT e-ink display.

Once you have downloaded the latest Pwnagotchi image, you will need to use an image writing tool to install that image on your SD card. We recommend using balenaEtcher, a graphical SD card writing tool that works on Mac OS, Linux, and Windows; it is the easiest option for most users. (balenaEtcher also supports writing images directly from the ZIP file, without any unzipping required!)

Depending on the name of the WiFi interface you’re going to use, you’ll need to edit the /usr/local/share/bettercap/caplets/pwnagotchi-auto.cap and /usr/local/share/bettercap/caplets/pwnagotchi-manual.cap caplet files accordingly.

How to run bettercap and in which mode it’s up to you as long as it’s running one of those two caplets. In the default Pwnagotchi image bettercap is running as a systemd service through a launcher script.

ExecStart=/usr/bin/pwngrid -keys /etc/pwnagotchi -address 127.0.0.1:8666 -client-token /root/.api-enrollment.json -wait -log /var/log/pwngrid-peer.log -iface mon0

This will install the default configuration file in /etc/pwnagotchi/default.toml, in order to apply customizations you’ll need to create a new /etc/pwnagotchi/config.toml file as explained in the configuration section.

having an ethernet port allows you an easier connection to the booted system. Just connect a cable to the port and Pwnagotchi get an IP address with DHCP. If a plugged ethernet cable is detected on boot it will start in MANU mode;

Ordered the pwnagotchi kit for my raspberry pi 0W arrived very well packaged in 2 hard plastic cases, came with all screws + extra screws and wires, complete 3d printed case, 2 lil instruction cards for screwing it together, a keychain, tf reader/miniHDMI/otf usb, and the santa hat. The only real issue I had was it took over 2 months to arrive to the USA, seller said it was because the Chinese Lunar New Year holiday but I ordered lots of other items from China right before/after Christmas and they all arrived on time so I think they just forgot to ship it but at least everything arrived & works well. Last they do always respond to emails just slowly always within 1 week though so just gotta be patient. Ended up paying $130 for my pwnagotchi build after completed doubt you’ll find 1 cheaper. Thank you.

Worked great for me. Pretty simple to set up the software and to physically attach the unit to the Pi. I like that you can easily swap out the battery for a bigger or smaller capacity one, or if the original fails. The unit supplies plenty of power - enough for a small 4 inch display, a fan on 5v and a couple of usb peripherals including an SSD. I only have one negative on this product and it was for a very specific use scenario (some of the PiSugar software can conflict with other programs making some of the functionality of the PiSugar, unavailable). Overall though, decent product.

The huge factor for this was getting the pwnagotchi working. I did open the waveshare screen, and saw that it had the pwngotchi face on it and didn"t think much about it, and I plugged in the SD card (already had the setup files) and with the pisugar charged by me I turned on the Pi and nothing happened with the screen.

Arrived in US in ~3 weeks, as expected, very well packaged and intact. Easy hardware and software install, up and running in minutes. Running a RPi Zero 2W with 1.3" TFT display, interfaced with a Ham radio as a DigiPi, I see power ticking down at about 10% per hour. An excellent bit of technology!

Work really nice, have it together with my pwnagotchi. Delivery time a little bit long that keeping me from another order. For the rest nice product, nice manual and connection material and package nice in a plastic box.

Honestly I enjoy building things from scratch and had planned on purchasing the parts separately and assembling my own Pwnagotchi, but this was a better deal than buying them all separately and all the included extras made it an instant buy for me. I was not disappointed!!

Ordered two (for pwnagotchis), and i bothered the hell out of questions on their support email and they answered every single of my noobs questions, even those not related to their product.

I purchased after I wrote them. they will respond usually between 1&3 days with a very short and brief sentence. But product showed up turned it on and it started grabbing pcaps. For people who may be new to pwnagotchi and or Linux and or script. this will be a challenge. seller will not be giving any suggestions. go to Reddit and get beat up their. I do have problems connecting to my Pwnagotchi via ssh as my laptop won"t see it unless I fully reset my network connections on my laptop. But this has nothing to do with seller. just my lack of experience. will be buying another from this seller as soon as I learn how to use current one.

This is an E-Ink display HAT for the Raspberry Pi. The display is 2.7" with a 264x176 resolution, and includes an embedded controller communicating via SPI interface.

Due to the advantages like ultra-low power consumption, wide viewing angle, clear display without electricity, it is an ideal choice for low-power applications and projects. It"s one of the recommended displays for the Pwnagotchi project!

Pwnagotchi is an A2C-based “AI” powered by bettercap and running on a Raspberry Pi Zero W that learns from its surrounding WiFi environment to maximize the crackable WPA key material it captures (either through passive sniffing or by performing deauthentication and association attacks). This material is collected on disk as PCAP files containing any form of handshake supported by hashcat, including full and half WPA handshakes as well as PMKIDs.

The RFID HAT for the Raspberry Pi boasts an updated UART interface running at the frequency of 125KHz with a compact design that includes a programmable 0.91” OLED Display. The HAT also comes with an RFID key card and fob.

The SparkFun Top pHAT for Raspberry Pi is intended to be at the top of a pHAT stack so you won’t find any pins for stacking on top of this board, but that’s ok because you will want to preserve your view of the 2.4″ TFT display, six RGB LED’s and three switches squeezed onto this board!
