In our previous video (linked below), Hackster PRO Jeremy Cook introduced the Nordic Thingy:91 X. This kit has some incredible capabilities right out of the box, but what's really interesting is the ability to program it for your own custom low-power cellular applications.

Watch as he shows how to install basic modem shell firmware on the Nordic Thingy:91 X using VSCode. Nordic's nRF51L15 DK assists with flashing duties, while the Power Profiler Kit II is used to evaluate power consumption – a huge issue for remote IoT installations!
