1·3 months agoYeah I might upgrade to a 18650 cell that I reclaimed if the phone battery is too small.
Yeah I don’t have one around ^^
Actually though that’s not true, last night I found an old device of me that I could harvest a 18650 battery from.
That’s cool, will you post your setup in the meshtastic community?
Honestly just get a heltec v3 from aliexpress, it’s only like 12€.
The board works with the cellphone battery, even with just holding the wires to the contacts ^^
Yes exactly that’s what I am trying to do. I just found a 3.7v battery in an ancient cellphone of mine, maybe that’ll work as well.
Assuming that you’re living in the US I think the secret is that disposable vapes aren’t as abundant in Germany yet.
Oh that’s a good idea, I think supermarkets also collect batteries in general to recycle, maybe there I can find empty vapes.
Not in Berlin. I see them sometimes, but not often enough. I want one now ^^
8·3 months agoIf 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
Because it’s not useful. Two routers still share the same frequencies and thus can’t send more data over the same air. A single router can already use multiple frequencies to increase throughput. You don’t need two to do that. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIMO
Oh but when does puking on the carpet start?
Do you use sms and MMS? I don’t
4·4 months agoWanted to buy it in pink after seeing this post but it seems to be bad quality. Looks nice in the renders though.
1·4 months agoIsn’t decathlon quality nowhere near reputable brands and don’t they have only the cheapest components in their bikes? They should be fine for infrequent use, but are not as reliable and thus could cost more in the end. \
Edit: I gathered this info last time I was looking for a bike.
Luckily happens less these days with LED lights
I don’t have one. It’s to tinker with my first esp32 board and lora.
It’s basically a hobby. If you live somewhere super rural or something it might be interesting to chat with your neighbor or whatever but I think meshtastic is still too much in the alpha stage to be usable really.
It might be useful on a festival or something, where cell networks are overloaded and you and your friends can contact each other via meshtastic. Idk if that would work though.
