https://github.com/Montecri/GPSTimeServer/tree/Dual-Display
Parts list:
- Amica NodeMCU (ESP8266 / ESP-12)
- DS3231 RTC
- Neo-6m V2 GPS
- 0.96" OLED Display
- Hi-Link 5V/3W
- Mini-360 DC-DC Buck converter
- TP4056 Module
- 18650 battery holder
- Red, Green and Yellow LEDs
- Resistors (150, 100 and 150 Ohms respectivelly for above leds)
- Switch key and momentary push button
ATTENTION
Several DS3231 modules being sold today contain a hazardous design flaw in which it supplies a voltage to the battery cradle regardless if it came with a rechargeable battery or not. If it came with a CR2032 battery (non-rechargeable) the consequence is that it will swell, explode, or worse. If it came with a LIR2032 battery (rechargeable), the module being fed with 5v will generate an unsafe charging voltage for that battery.
There are workarounds for that so you don't need to toss your module away, the most popular being removing a diode and/or resistor.
There's a long discussion on the thread below about root cause and possible fixes:
