Held together without any solder ^^
Uses an old phone battery for power and is housed in the box that the heltec v3 hardware was shipped in. Unfortunately I had to bend a row of pins to fit it in the box with the battery, but this is only because on my model the two rows of pins are already soldered in. Normally they should be included extra I think.
I am seeing lots of other meshtastic devices, but haven't yet managed to send a message. Maybe I am not in a good location or I need a better antenna.
Kinda want to buy a second device just for messing around with two of these ^^
I highly recommend buying off of aliexpress directly.
Nice. Where abouts are you. I would love to see more of this stuff available.
Isn't the mesh size limited?
I am not sure if the mesh size is limited. They're doing "managed flood routing" which is like normal flood routing, but routers wait for a while to see if someone else is flooding the message already, then they don't send it out themselves if they see it flooded. I don't know how that behaves in different network topologies
