This is a standalone device with very low power consumtion compatible with FakeTec board. Easy to print and build. Enjoy it!
I tested to send messages and traceroute between 13.5km with no problems.
You can find all the files in the “Files” folder. Use these profiles.
Parts needed:
- FakeTec link soldered with the pin header.
- SSD1306 cheap model in ali-express. (Yellow + blue) one is recommended for Meshtastic GUI.
- Good antenna (i use Gizont)
- Sma to ipex: Lenght is not crucial because case is designed to fit long cables but i recommend very short ones, in the photos you can see the distance (less than 5cm)
- 4x 16mm M3 screws
- 4x M3 heated inserts
- Keyboard KB M5Stack
- For buzzer you will need a buzzer (i used a active one) and a transistor and few resistor. Do not connect direcctly to a GPIO!
- Also there is space behind the Keyboard KB to a vibrator module (I have tested it and is ok)
- Battery: can be as big as the Keyboard KB. I use a old nokia battery. (1000mah)
- Switch: I used a typical Aliexpress one. Two positions.
