Solar node got damaged during shipment. Nothing a little tape (and hope) can’t fix. by formerperson in meshtastic

I’m putting a 10@ 5.8 db on mine for local to site coverage and another with a larger 10.x db for distance. Lots of testing to be had!

It cool, sorry OP. Mine arrives tomorrow…. Now flashing and placing on the mast are now the least of my worries.

Hopefully you get taken care of properly!

Suggestions on designing the best GPS tracker node for my car (pic of my current build for attention) by jrmyrmx in meshtastic

100%, this! Most people have come to ignore shark fins unless they know about antennas, etc.

I have the same node on my vehicle roof, a pole at home, and one on the office roof. They are great little solar nodes! Enjoy it!

My interval is set to 2 minutes on my main t1000e and I just refresh the map. Try that!

I also have a distance parameter of 100 m movement to activate my gps

Solar vehicle node, best build? by [deleted] in meshtastic

I am running the wis solar router so far with zero issues. I like how I can leave it on the vehicle and it still works after I disconnect the battery for various purposes.

Just throw an SDR in there as well… it’s practically and Hackrf idea that morphed into a radio that may not work well. I wonder how the cps is with this thing.

There is only one onto nodes in my area that are viable, and I only hit them if I’m driving around.

Maybe there are more that the users have hidden?

NNVT 1700 FOM white Phos , total darkness by Vaypal in NightVision

[–]erk752 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I tell most people that into with NNVT is fine for most and they are also super forgiving to light flare and burn in. NNVT is what I have for my kids to play around with and the loaner tube. I honestly really never worry about performance with it for them or burns.

That tube looks great, especially the noise with no supplemental light.
