HR4BTC***Putting this out just a little early because I know everyone will be busy later in the week.<br><br>🎄⚡️🎄 My Current Recommendations for Mesh Radios as Stocking Stuffers. These mesh nodes all work for Meshtastic and they should all work on Reticulum soon. 🎄⚡️🎄<br><br>🎁 Use this holiday season as an opportunity to build out your local mesh.<br><br>🎁 If you were giving a neighbor or loved one a gift anyways, give them the gift of a mesh node.<br><br>🎁 Do you have to do a Secret Santa gift exchange at work? Get them a mesh node. This will also get a conversation started when folks see your recipient open the present.<br><br>🎁 For parents: Was your kid good this year? Get them a mesh node. Tell them an elf made it special just for them.<br><br>🎄⚡️🎄 You may want to order them ASAP to make sure you get them in time for Christmas. 🎄⚡️🎄<br><br>(These recommended nodes should all have Reticulum firmware available shortly on the community firmware GitHub)<br><br>📟 SeeedStudio T1000-e: My top choice for EDC (Everyday Carry) mesh node. It has no external antenna, waterproof, compact and reliable.<br><br>🔋 Rak WisBlock: My go to for building solar-powered repeaters. With ultra-low power usage, it’s perfect for long-term, remote setups.<br><br>📵 Lilygo T-Deck: For a standalone all-in-one device—no phone or tablet required. It has the classic BlackBerry-style form factor, and once the new UI is ready, this will be a must have. Everyone will want one, consider getting one before the rush comes.<br> <br>💸 Heltec v3: If you’re just starting out, this is a low cost option is a solid entry-level unit and easy to find with a case included. Easy to experiment with and great for beginners.<br><br>🖨️ Got a 3D printer? Skip the Heltec V3 and print your own case and dive straight into a custom Rak build. It is just slight more expensive and far better on power consumption.<br> <br><a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/meshtastic" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>meshtastic</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/mesh" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>mesh</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/reticulum" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>reticulum</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/sideband" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>sideband</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/nomadnet" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>nomadnet</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/ham" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>ham</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/hamradio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>hamradio</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/amateurradio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>amateurradio</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/radio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>radio</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/915mhz" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>915mhz</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/meshradio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>meshradio</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/edc" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>edc</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/offgrid" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>offgrid</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/lora" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>lora</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/diynetworking" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>diynetworking</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/heltec" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>heltec</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/lilygo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>lilygo</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/rak" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>rak</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/seeedstudio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>seeedstudio</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/grownostr" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>grownostr</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/gm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>gm</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/merrychristmas" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>merrychristmas</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/blackfriday" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>blackfriday</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/happythanksgiving" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>happythanksgiving</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/christmas" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>christmas</a> <a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mostr.pub/tags/thanksgiving" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span>#</span>thanksgiving</a> <br><br><a href="https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/radiocity_santa120516_01.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/radiocity_santa120516_01.jpg</a>
