Mailbag #164 und Review LilyGo T Echo Plus BME280 mit Meshtastic Firmware

YouTube

#meshtastic #LilyGo #TDeck.

Wanted to update the firmware from Linux.

I managed using chromium and https://flasher.meshtastic.org/, but not until I restarted while holding down the scroll button, and running sudo setfacl -m u:avuko:rw /dev/ttyACM0.

Took me a blessed search to figure out this incantation, so this is my documentation.

sooo this weekend I finally flashed #Meshtastic onto the #pager 🙌

HOT TIP, when they say "check that your cable isn't power-only", THERE'S A REASON THEY SAY THAT. if it doesn't work, check your cable.. swap it out.. try a different one... Ask me how I know 🙃

Anyway, once that was done, I was shocked to find that I was able to see 4-8 nodes online at any given point!

There's still SO much I don't know, but this is a fun little starter device IMHO.

#mesh #LilyGo

Folks familiar with #meshtastic and #lilygo t3s3 node -- anyone know if the board can charge a battery via usb, when the battery is connected to the board's battery connector? I couldn't find much documentation from the manufacturer..

Live tracking with 4× LilyGO T-Beam SUPREME units.

Each node transmits GPS coords every 10s, logs TX/RX to SD, and stays µs-disciplined to avoid collisions. A Semtech SX1303 sniffer on an RPi 4B captures all traffic → UDP → CSV → live web map with fading positions. Includes 49 second video (sped up 500%).

Structured Exercise 12 now documented:

#Reticulum #LoRa #TBeam #LilyGO #MeshNetworking #Meshtastic #ESP32 #GIS #OpenSource

Someone (!523b) just took a #meshtastic #lilygo T-Echo in the air near Amsterdam, at least 4km high, and forwarded node information from dutch nodes from 300km away to Brussels... They disappeared when ~40km away.

Looks like my #lilygo #tdeck just cleared customs this past weekend.

Hopefully I'll get to play with it in the next week or two.
