what's the screen refresh time like on this? I have a small e-ink display that I got from Adafruit and it takes 10+ seconds to redraw

LTT just did a video[1] on an 25inch E-Ink display[2] that runs at 15Hz.

It worked way better than I thought it would and is a pretty decent size.

Little pricey.

The one display I got takes about 2 seconds to cycle. You can make it shorter with partial redraws, but for my purposes, the cycle was the right thing to do.
