Unboxing Heltec MeshSolar | Solar-Powered LoRa + Bluetooth for Off-Grid Projects!
45In this video, I’ll walk through the unboxing, first impressions, and hardware features of the MeshSolar, including:
• Dual-board design with BMS + LoRa/Bluetooth communication control
• Support for 1–4 Li-ion cells with overcharge, over-discharge, and thermal protection
• Solar, USB-PD 3.0, and DC input charging options
• Expansion slots for GPS, displays, and I/O modules
• Built-in LoRa range up to 10 km and web-based configuration tools
🌍 For me, this isn’t just a cool piece of hardware — it’s a building block for future projects:
• Setting up off-grid Meshtastic networks for survival and emergency comms
• Testing long-term, solar-powered deployments in rugged environments
• Exploring how low-power mesh tech can support cybersecurity, networking, and survival tech experiments
