I’d like to have one at two physical locations, best I can do is a window and a third on me to actually message from. Hope to get sensor data from the two stations and have all three in client mode.

Is that good, bad, whatever!?

What are you doing these days in your local area?

New to it, so idk what I'm doing and it is subject to change daily, but so far I have 3 nodes.

T1000e in pocket, client mute.

T114v2 in bag or placed in a high window near by, bigger antenna and better range on it but the t1000e is just so perfect for a pocket. This one is client.

Heltec v3, not too happy with it. No GPS and like 8hr batt because of the ESP32. And on top of that every time it dies it resets itself. I think I may just keep that one plugged in 24/7 next to a window and connect it to MQTT when I have internet again, and keep the battery in as a backup for power loss, idk. Client as well.

Kiiiiinda wanna solar power a RAK and throw it on the roof, but "one day."
