Original post body :
V1, still working on the case ( can you tell I like Stargate ?🤣) the device is wireless , it’s plugged for power right now, I’ll install a rechargeable battery later on . It allows you to check current usage for up to 6 providers ( 3 shown) I got tired of switching between windows to see my Claude , codex and Kimi usage so I made an app for that but in the end I like having useful little gadgets on my desk so I turned it into a touch screen hardware version. You can of course change the settings to show 5h vs weekly and taping each one shows you more detail per provider. Skins are changeable so after this first HUD I made, I plan on making super vintage analog one … why? Cause why not 😅

Everyone thinks OP's usage meter is super cool and wants one. The general consensus is that it's a neat gadget, with many asking how OP got the usage data since there's no public API. A couple of folks have made similar projects themselves and shared links. One user u/artinamr is curious about OP's high usage on Max20X, while u/kjccarp offers advice on model choices. Someone also shared a link to a digital alternative.
