LoRa Off Grid is a project that enables you to use inexpensive LoRa radios as a long range off-grid communication platform in areas with or without existing or reliable communications infrastructure. This Meshtastic project is 100% community driven and open source!

-
- Long range 915MHz with a record breaking 158Miles.
- No phone or wifi required for mesh communication
- Decentralized communication – no dedicated router required
- Encrypted communication
- Send and receive text messages between members of the mesh
- Optional GPS based location features
Meshtastic utilizes LoRa, a long-range radio protocol, which is widely accessible in most regions without the need for additional licenses or certifications, unlike HAM radio operations. These radios are designed to rebroadcast messages they receive, forming a mesh network. This setup ensures that every group member, including those at the furthest distance, can receive messages. Depending on the settings employed, the Meshtastic mesh network can support up to 100 devices concurrently. Additionally, LoRa radios can be paired with a single phone, allowing friends and family to send messages directly to your specific radio. It’s important to note that each device is capable of supporting a connection from only one user at a time.”

CHECK OUT THE NEW POWERNODE
If you have time, please take a minute to check out the new LoRa Device TX Amplifier / RX Booster. We call it the “50 mile node”. In line of site conditions it breaks all known LoRa Records. Is that cheating? Over rough wooded terrain it was tested at 51 miles when “WE” stopped, not the node! No need to march 100’s of devices to cover a huge area, save thousands with a PowerNode.
