I hope this is a good title ^^

Hmm I thought it was disliked behavior. I'll change it then!
sexy_peach 1mo ago • 100%
yup.
But I have to post it with the original title, correct? Or would it be fine for me to give it a more descriptive one?

The coordinates of other and own node

I thought the app might be able to calculate it
sexy_peach 2mo ago • 100%
Ah okay so it's calculated on the node, not in the app. Bummer
I don't want to share my location to the mesh. But I want the app to calculate how far other nodes are from my position. Is that possible? What options do I have to configure to make that happen?

Hmm not sure I like that. Apparently the default channel has too much traffic to be handled well by the esp32 devices.

I am not sure if the mesh size is limited. They're doing "managed flood routing" which is like normal flood routing, but routers wait for a while to see if someone else is flooding the message already, then they don't send it out themselves if they see it flooded. I don't know how that behaves in different network topologies

Das war vor Jahrzehnten schon ein Auslaufmodell

No I am a noob at this as well. The heltec v3 seems to be the most popular device though.

I don't have one. It's to tinker with my first esp32 board and lora.
It's basically a hobby. If you live somewhere super rural or something it might be interesting to chat with your neighbor or whatever but I think meshtastic is still too much in the alpha stage to be usable really.
It might be useful on a festival or something, where cell networks are overloaded and you and your friends can contact each other via meshtastic. Idk if that would work though.

Yeah I might upgrade to a 18650 cell that I reclaimed if the phone battery is too small.
sexy_peach 2mo ago • 100%
For now I use it mostly for exploring meshtastic and trying to send a single message to someone else in the network xD

Thanks. Where did you get the channel from? "Show full details"?
sexy_peach 2mo ago • 100%
I am in Germany. I would like to find a root topic for Berlin :)
Thanks I'll search around.

But chatting through the internet kind of defeats the point imo.
Also I tried to connect to mqtt but it did nothing. Do you have instructions for dummies how to set it up? I used the meshtastic module config docs and it didn't work ^^
sexy_peach 2mo ago • 100%
Yeah my plan was without charging. But I found another solution anyways :)
sexy_peach 2mo ago • 100%
Yeah I don't have one around ^^
Actually though that's not true, last night I found an old device of me that I could harvest a 18650 battery from.

Any ideas?
Is it possible to power the heltec v3 with NIMH batteries? Like maybe 4 in series (4.8v) or 3 in series (3.6v)? Would it even charge them or is the charging only for li-ion battery packs like the 3.7v one that everyone suggests? I don't want to buy it if I don't need it, I have old NIMH batteries in abundance and I'm not sure what my final setup should look like yet.
