Hi PINE64 community,
we've been working on a small project to make the Pinecil V2 even more convenient to use.

Using its built-in Bluetooth connectivity, we connected the Pinecil V2 to a Raspberry Pi 5 and created an external touchscreen interface for monitoring and controlling the soldering iron.
The setup works without an internet connection and uses the free CGI Studio Community Edition to create and run the HMI on the Raspberry Pi.
We've documented the project with images, a demo and setup information here:

We'd love to hear what the PINE64 community thinks!
Best regards,
Wolfgang
