RECEIVER MODULE
For sender module: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3593743

Everyday, when I get home for lunch, I stop at the mailbox for nothing more often than not. The mailman didn't pass yet and there's no mail, then I have to stop again at the end of the day. If the mailman passed and I don't have mail that day, I still don't know and I need to stop again at the end of the day. If I received mail and my wife already picked it up, I still stop for nothing at lunch.

So I had the idea to create a device able to detect it. The way it works is that the sender detects if the main front panel is opened or only my box door. Then it sends a LoRa signal to my receiver in my house about 300' from the community mailbox.
