Description
Proven design for a large solar-powered MeshCore/Meshtastic repeater with sufficient space for electronics. The XIAO nRF52840 & Wio-SX1262 Kit, an MPPT solar charge controller, and 2×18650 Li-Ion batteries are recommended.
The enclosure was primarily developed for pole mounting and is ideal for continuously operated outdoor nodes. A spacer and a wall mount are optionally available.
Printing Notes
- Printed with PETG
