What hardware are you using for LoRa connectivity?
Meaning to go down that rabbit hole but the sheer number of hardware options is overwhelming given my limited bandwidth...

Just dove down this rabbit hole myself yesterday. I decided I wanted to be up and running with my Meshtastic device sooner than later and with little headache, so I went and got myself a RAKwireless WisMesh Pocket v2 that was pre-assembled. (Bought from Rokland, if you're in the US.)
I decided to go with it as it has an OLED screen, GPS radio, rechargeable battery , and an external antenna with bluetooth. Possibly more than I'd ever need, but I'm excited to get it and try it out.
Unfortunately I'm in the EU, but also looking for a pre-assembled option (not as much free time on my hands as I used to have....)
I'll look into your suggestion and see if I find a local retailer
Thx!
Hope you can find a fairly local retailer!
Just did a little Kagi search, and came across this site: https://atlavox.com/products/atlavox-m1?variant=51324670607634 - looks like they have a brick-and-mortar in Bristol. Not sure if that helps you, but they do have an EU variant, and looks like they do EU shipping as well.
Thx
You are going to have tons of fun. Have a look at https://meshmap.net. It's volunteer, so it won't show everybody nearby, but you might get an idea of what's around you.
Definitely bookmarking this site. Thanks for the tip! I am very much looking forward to playing around with it!
Seeed SenseCAP Card Tracker T1000-E is a good out of the box start.
Budget version are Heltec LoRa V4 kits.
Will look into it
Thx
I've been using it for about a year, and I seriously suggest the Heltec MeshPocket since it doubles as a USB power bank for your phone.
