Dev boards

Device CE/ FCC Power consumption Support Note cost
TTGOv2 No 105mA (Bluetooth) Supported Available pre-flashed ~$17
TTGO Tbeam V07 No ~150mA? Supported compile with pio run -e ttgo-lora32-tbeam ~$24
TTGO Tbeam V10 No ~150mA? Experimental May require enabling GPS chip, see #33 (comment) ~$24
Disaster Radio v5 No ~100mA Todo Open Source board in development ~$20?
Lopy4 Yes ~70mA (Bluetooth) Todo should be good for infrastructure ~$50
Sparkfun 1 channel gateway No ~70mA (Bluetooth) Experimental Edit this ~$35
M5 stack & Ra-01H Yes ~140mA Todo Only the Ra-01H module will work, take care to buy this version, at the correct frequency for your country ~$35 + ~$18
Heltec V2 No ~100mA Experimental Poor performance, short range,
compile with pio run -e heltec-v2 		~$9
TTGO V1 No ~100mA Experimental Poor performance, short range,
compile with pio run -e ttgo-lora32-v1 		~$9

Complete solar nodes

A user has drafted a list of parts for a solar-powered system here to be used with this controller, a 20w panel and 4 x 1600mA batteries are probably good for latitude ~50, for higher latitude consider a larger panel. this system is in the early stages of testing, proceed at your own risk.

Work is also being done on a custom controller

Research for custom boards

All are initial estimations, probably missing a component or two and haven't scoured for bulk prices on everything:

Total: ~$40
