Hi I have a Hanshow tag, and have the openepaperlink installed on it, I purchased a ESP S3 Development Board ESP S3-1 with ESP-1-N16R8, thinking this would work as an AP, flashed but the radio won't turn on flashed multiple times using the BLE only AP, i now notice that the Hanshow tags are not supported, is there another esp32 that would work, not needing a display on it?

Thanks

Did you look at https://github.com/atc1441/ATC_TLSR_Paper? I think you need a custom firmware for your ESL's.
If I understand correctly Hanshow tags don't use BLE to communicate, so you need a full working AP - with two radios to be able to use those ESL's.

i'm trying the spagetti ap, just ordered a esp32-c6 to go with the esp32-c3, but pinout seems diffrent, trying to work that out

I hope you meant esp32-s3, the esp32-c3 won't work for a spaghetti AP.
