For now I use it mostly for exploring meshtastic and trying to send a single message to someone else in the network xD

Thanks. Where did you get the channel from? "Show full details"?

I am in Germany. I would like to find a root topic for Berlin :)

Thanks I'll search around.

But chatting through the internet kind of defeats the point imo.

Also I tried to connect to mqtt but it did nothing. Do you have instructions for dummies how to set it up? I used the meshtastic module config docs and it didn't work ^^

Yeah my plan was without charging. But I found another solution anyways :)

Ok I figured out that I maybe can't charge NIMH batteries, but by connecting them to the 5V pin I can run the board off of them :) I'll try it and then report back!

https://resource.heltec.cn/download/WiFi_Kit_32_V3/HTIT-WiFi%20kit32_V3(Rev1.1).pdf Lithium battery(≥250mA) min: 3.3 typical: 3.7 max: 4.2

So I guess I could try to run it on three AAA batteries. Worst thing to happen is I fry the board, which was only 10€. I'll wait for a reply here though

Edit: I meant AA batteries

Onboard SH1.25-2 battery interface, integrated lithium battery management system (charge and discharge management, overcharge protection, battery power detection, USB / battery power automatic switching).

Seems like this is only for lithium batteries. Maybe it can run off NIMH batteries but not charge them?

Which antennas do you have? How far does it reach?

If you want to use multiple internet connections and combine their speed, that's possible. Dunno how though and I guess to work best it would need a server somewhere else like a VPN to manage the packets coming from different ips
