LoRaMeshNodes - SSNvA

This is a stationary solar LoRa mesh node, to be used as as a [MeshCore](https://meshcore.co.uk) repeater. It has been designed to fit into a 40mm PVC pipe, which serves as enclosure and as antenna pole. The radio (Heltec T114) is attached close to the antenna (Ziisor 55cm) at the top of the pipe where as the MPPT solar charger (SDBK03TA) and the battery (32700 6500mAh LiFePO4) are placed on the bottom of the pipe. The solar node is powered by a cheap wall mountable 5V 10W solar panel.

Required components
- Heltec T114
- Antenna with N-connector (e.g. Ziisor 55cm 8dBi)
- SDBK03TA MPPT solar charger for LiFePo4 batteries
- BMS protection board for LiFePo4 batteries
- LiFePo4 32700 3.2V battery
- Battery contacts
- Cables with water resistant connectors
