915MHz LoRa 32 V3 ESP32 OLED Board + 915 MHz LoRa Antenna + LoRa Case Enclosure for Meshtastic LoRaWAN, not Compatible with Heltec LoRa32 V2

They com with a case, and a horrible but usable antenna. But with that and a usb port to plug it into on say, a computer or power bank, its enough to dive into LoRa and meshtastic! There are also a lot of better 3d printable cases online that are free to download. I do reccommend getting a dedicated battery and antenna at least as the basic upgrades. The esp32 board is more "power hungry", but with a decent battery and power bank it will run for a long time. Remember to disable wifi or bluetooth depending on what your are using to connect your phone or computer to the node for messaging and settings. This will help it use a lot less power and run a lot longer. For the price, these are probably impossible to beat! Have a good one, and hope to see you on the mesh!

works fine out of box, board is good quality, antenna is the same free crap they give with all lora boards case does the job only if powered bu usb no space for batteries

This is a great way to start playing with meshtastic on a budget.

You will have to go to Meshtastic.org and get the Flash software to program it initially.

Still exploring the possibilities.

Bum deal - particulary on the unit i ordered? The unit does not stay on - it is constantly cycling bluetooth on and off and it shuts off randomly. I have used and configured these before - just be aware they are cheap units and you may get a bad one - buy at your own risk

The circuit board almost fits. The antenna? Not even close. Board itself is more or less functional. I'm still learning how to use it.

Antenna does not fit case!
