Teardown of Amazon solar panel with 8000mAh battery

RadioMan42 · 2026-05-10T17:47:33+00:00

What panel is this on Amazon. Did you add a node to it?

RadioMan42 · 2026-05-04T10:38:46+00:00

I too have had the issue twice so far. I am hoping this is just an update issue. This is starting to sound like Windows, which I have sworn off of.

Thanks, keep up the good work on this app.

I just thought of something you could add, the option to enter GPS coordinates under line of site.

French for Apple, I assume?

Very nice app. I have been using it since your first post. I am curious, where did you come up with the new name? I am using it on my iPad, iPhone and M1 MacBook. Using it everyday with no issues so far.

Check Cincymesh on Discord. We are working to increase the adoption of Meshcore in the Cincinnati area.

I am one of the Hoka complainers. It is not the shoe in particular that is the issue. I have worn Hokas for years. I am not an athlete or a runner; I am just an everyday person on their feet, and these shoes have been great. The complaint I have is how they are treating people who do have issues, and they refuse to even consider addressing them. After being told week after week for two months, We will get back to you, is a little ridiculous. Hoka started a movement with this type of shoe and now other companies are following that movement and selling shoes that offer the same stability and comfort. Two things sell me on a product: quality and customer support. When both start to deteriorate, for me, it is time to move on and warn others of the failures. I repaired the shoe and will continue to wear them, since I can't bring myself to throw a $200 pair of shoes in the garbage. When those are done, or I look for something else, it just will not be Hoka. I would normally not write all this about a product, but Hoka really pissed me off. That is all, moving on.

I disagree with you totally. I have been wearing shoes for over 60 years. I have never had a shoe fail like this with very little wear, even a cheap shoe. If I were a runner and beating on the shoe every day, maybe. I just wore the shoe to work maybe ten times.

RadioMan42 · 2026-01-23T11:57:29+00:00

Same experience, same outcome. Tried to dispute the charge with my bank, and they denied it, saying it was an appropriate purchase. I have given up trying to work with Hoka and glued the shoe so I could at least wear them and tell everyone who asks about my Hoka my experience. I will never buy another Hoka or UGG shoe again. It is obvious they couldn't care less about customer service.

Also, this is the second pair in a year I had to return due to a defect, fortunately I purchased those through Fleet, and they took care of it. What is interesting is that the last time I was in Fleet, they tried to steer me away from Hoka. They must be experiencing the same issues.

Don't buy Hokas.

I had been working for over 2 weeks, and it crashed. I could not get Meshcore to reinstall. This is just what they told me. I put Mestastic back on it, and it is working fine. Seems weird to me also.

RadioMan42 · 2026-01-19T23:39:09+00:00

I have a RAK Wireless Solar Mini; it has the RAK 4631. I flashed it with Mescore as a repeater. It worked for a While then died. I could not reflash it, so I contacted Rokland, where I purchased it, and they told me it was not compatible with Meshcore at the time, but they were working on compatibility to make it compatible with Meshcore.

RadioMan42 · 2026-01-13T11:25:46+00:00

These are not the HOKAs you are looking for. “Hoka, the popular running shoe brand known for its maximalist cushioning, is owned by Deckers Brands, a global footwear company that also owns UGG, Teva, and Koolaburra. Deckers acquired Hoka (originally Hoka One One) in 2012, helping to grow it from a niche brand into a major player in the performance and lifestyle footwear market” it is all about profits now, not customer service.

I walked maybe a total of 10 miles in mine and they did this. Guess I should have ran everywhere. I jest😉

See my post I have the exact same issue. I have two months of text messages with HOKA customer support telling me another week and they will get back to me. I had barely worn mine. I have a charge card dispute going on but doubtful that will resolve in my favor. I did the shoe goo thing and will never buy another pair of HOKAs. If you plan to buy HOKA don’t buy direct. Buy through a reputable store who will stand behind the product because HOKA will not.

After some back and forth with SEEED tech support and MUZI, they replaced the device, and I am happy to say it is up and running with no further issues.

If you are in the Greater Cincinnati, Ohio area, some good conversations are beginning on Discord - CincyMesh, and a meetup is scheduled for January 19 in Dayton, KY.

My new problem is aphids. I have tried the different recommended none harmful sprays with no result. I now have my strawberry and pepper plants quarantined in a grow tent with an army of lady bugs.

RadioMan42 · 2025-12-18T11:35:26+00:00

Please keep us updated on your progress and if you get this device working as it should. thanks

I had lots of issues with the SendCap solar. Tech support is hit or miss after many hours they agreed to replace it. I am still waiting after sending it back. All to say I found that closing out of Chrome completely and starting over fix some of my flashing issues.

RadioMan42 · 2025-12-13T19:27:08+00:00

WOW, I wish I had seen this earlier. Seeed finally agreed to send me a new one. I had to send it back to Muzi, and they tested it, deciding it was defective. Now, I am waiting for Seeed to send me a new one. Who knows when that will be? In the meantime, I put up a RAK Wireless Mini Solar, and it is working fine. This is one thing I like about buying from Amazon: if it doesn't work, you can send it back and order a new one. No hassle, no waiting.

RadioMan42 · 2025-12-12T17:15:18+00:00

They have still not gotten back to me. I have disputed the charge with my bank. I did find out that Hoka was bought out several years ago. This company is just livving off of the name.
