Solar charging of meshtastic devices

Thank you, I should have done some more reading of the forum first. Too bad about the CubeCell, I guess it is still that old tradeoff between power usage, performance, and also ease of use/programmability.

I’ve been building remote low-powered autonomous time-lapse cameras which definitely have a tradeoff between image quality, cost, and battery life. Having an island-wide autonomous mesh for telemetry would help me monitor the cameras via LoRa and know when I need to swap out batteries…

I’ll order some of the meshtastic supported boards and look at the ones best suited for low-power+solar LoRaWan relays.

Thanks for this excellent project. I’m super excited to test this out.
