Glad to share a fun weekend project, a powerful #Meshtastic node in a waterproof & rugged case, for use in comms blackout situations/emergencies. It allows for texting across the mesh with a smartphone.

It also has an offline WiFi network serving both the Collapsible wiki, and simple usage instructions.

The solar panel trickle-charges a roomy LiPo that should give more than a week of cover, with phone charge port behind it. Has spare antenna (orange rope is for lifting the baseplate out)

A black rugged case with handle and solar panel affixed to front, antenna mounted vertically behind the handle. It sits atop a wooden rail, with native bush/forest behind it

A closeup of a man (c'est moi) holding the case, with the antenna folded down, bush in the background.

A view of the interior showing 12.8V@18A LiPo battery, LoRa board (T-Beam Supreme/ESP32-S3), spare antenna, R-Pi Zero W and charge controller.
