    great video, thank you very much. Unfortunately, I have an Apple Phone and therefore cannot set up my own notification sounds via the iOS app. Could you make a video on how I can connect a buzzer or beeper to the RAK board? Unfortunately, I'm not as much of an electronics technician as you, but I can use a soldering iron ;-)

      Hello I would be glad to make such a video if and once I get my hand on a buzzer module compatible with this RAK wireless 19007 board. If RAK Wireless hears this, I call o them to send me a sample :)

    Could you explain why you chose to have the male connector on the side of the board that could possibly have the contacts come in contact with something that would short them? I like the idea of having the screen detachable but I would have chosen to have the female connector on the board side. like @Bezstopy said you have amazing soldering skills.

      Good question. The choice really depends on your context and objectives. I prefered to have the female connector on the screen so I can transport the screen in my pocket without damage if it would habe been a male connector.

    You also need user button to make at least some benefits of having screen.

      You can set the screen to automatically roll to the next screen every X seconds as a work-around.

    Do you prefer to use stranded wire for you projects? I find stranded very fiddly to solder so I use solid conductor wire. Do you have a preference or is the stranded what you had on hand?

    • @PoweredMeshtasticEurope

      I prefer stranded wires for flexibility and solder is sucked into the stranded wires.

    What gauge wire did you use?
