Building a RAK Wireless Meshtastic Node for my Vehicle - Lismore Australia

Installing and configuring a RAK Meshtastic node in my truck.

Sir.. not to alarm you... but there is a bird trying to Strategically Transfer Equipment To Alternative Locations (cit.) your node....

I really like the birds...they look happy. I wish my wife would let me have one.

[@iblackfeathers]

👍for the bird and meshtastic info.

Love your work! I have one in my car. The RAK uses so little power, I charge about once a week from the cars USB C socket. Great bluetooth range. Great bird too.

Doing the same with my truck, but using a bigger solar panel and case . Also I'm using a mounted antenna on the rail of the bed of the Truck.

[@kenough90]

you don't worry about the sun making the cabin really hot and damaging the board or battery?

[@nathanjones2584]

You say you were impressed by the range… how much range did you get with the vehicle node?

[@mlindbloom1923]
