Notes

A sealed portable sensor node with selectable GNSS, temperature/humidity, 3-axis or barometric-pressure module and regional LoRa bands.[1] Heltec recommends a power bank or mobile phone for Meshtastic because the built-in battery is small.[4] The current product page lists a 250 mAh battery; its datasheet conflicts, listing 150 mAh in the specifications table while stating 250 mAh in the overview.[3]
