## Description

#### Why did you make it?
I set out to make an Ultra Low powered ESP32 board and make it affordable.

#### What makes it special?
- ESP32-S3 powered (Espressifs latest gen chip)
- Ultra Low power deep sleep (<20uA!!!)
- Battery Voltage Monitoring built in.
- RGB LED (for fun)
- USB-C
- Supports Arduino, Micro Python and Circuit Python with many example sketches!
- Fully open source. Check out the [Github](https://github.com/strid3r21/BeeS3).
- Breadboard compatible for easy prototyping.
- Small and Compact with mounting holes for easy mounting.

### Q: Ok, but how does that translate to battery life? 
### A: Well if you had this paired with a 1500mah LiPo battery, turning on once a day and sending a sensor reading over MQTT it would last for over 5 years!

#### NOTE: the Bee S3 does NOT have LiPo charging capabilities. to re-charge a battery you will need an external battery charging option.
