Woah, those are pricey but exactly what I’m looking for! I might have to bite the bullet and pick them up. Thanks!

This post made me try again to find a solution, and maybe a USB extension cord with a on/off switch could work. It’s not automated but would be more convenient than removing the dongle each time. I’m thinking something like this

I have this exact same problem, but with a Chevy bolt. Some cars USB ports are “always on” and some aren’t. Might be worth trying different ones and see if there’s a port that doesn’t power on randomly. This didn’t work on my car, but it’s a common solution I came across when I was trying to figure it out. For now, I’ve just reverted back to wired AA.

They should use Lithium Iron batteries for a real LiFe pro tip

It’s not a “worse” display. It’s a different display. The only point is that if you want an e-ink phone (either for readability or battery life) this is one of the only options. Assuming it actually launches at least.

100 bucks is only for the extra features. Just to remove ads is $20, which is admittedly still high
