A ready-to-deploy Meshtastic solar node with GPS. It's built on the RAKwireless WisBlock RAK4631 with the RAK12501 GNSS module installed, powered by a 6W solar panel and a 3000mAh LiPo battery, and housed in a weather-resistant ASA enclosure with magnetic mounts. Every node is assembled and tested in house in Washington, Illinois before it ships.

Only one available. This is a single finished unit. The node in the photos does not have the GPS module installed yet; the one you receive will.

Important Notes

  • The hardware arrives assembled and tested. Meshtastic configuration and network setup are up to you.
  • For shipping safety the battery is disconnected from the RAK board. Reconnect it before use.
  • The solar cable is permanently sealed into the enclosure. Sealing the cover plate is up to you. Dielectric grease works better than silicone because you can still open the housing later for maintenance.
  • Meshtastic is open source and community supported, so I can't offer technical support for firmware or configuration.
  • Not included: configuration, network setup or firmware support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this node ready to use?

Good to Know

Ships in 5–7 business days from Washington, Illinois. Printed housings can show small layer lines, and that's normal for 3D printed parts.
