In this episode, we're MESHING AROUND with MeshCore!
In the last video, I built a new DIY MeshCore repeater designed to look a little less suspicious 😂. Now it's time to actually get it out in the field and see how it performs!
We deploy the new DIY solar-powered MeshCore repeater, get it up and running, and start testing the network.
But that's not all...
We're also trying out the Seeed Studio P1 Pro solar node to see how it compares and how well it works as an off-grid MeshCore node.
We'll check out:
🔴 Deploying the DIY MeshCore repeater
☀️ Solar-powered off-grid MeshCore nodes
📡 Seeed Studio P1 Pro testing
📶 MeshCore range and connectivity
🗺️ Expanding the local MeshCore network
🔋 Keeping nodes running without grid power
😂 And, of course, plenty of meshing around along the way!
If you're interested in MeshCore, LoRa, Meshtastic, off-grid communications, emergency communications, solar-powered radio nodes, or DIY electronics, this one is for you.
If you haven't seen the previous video where I built the DIY repeater, check that one out first!
