RAK's WisMesh Tag is a pretty good alternative to the T1000.

Also their 1W nodes are interesting but still in DIY format only.

I had a Heltec MeshPocket till I lost it during a bike ride. Pretty decent but very power hungry. The T1000/WisMesh Tag are nicer to keep on you I think.

    The heltecesh pocket or the rak mesh pocket? Only reason I ask is because I have the Helltec mesh pocket, 10,000 mAh, and it lasts me 50 days on a battery charge.

    When you say RAK mesh pocket, do you mean this or this? Neither last 50 days.

    Well the 10Ah Heltec MeshPocket would definetely last longer. The only thing that's nicer on the RAK is that it's got an external antenna connector so you can plug any antenna into it. I had a Heltec MeshPocket 5Ah and it lasted less than my RAK. It may have been something that was fixed down the road. I got one of the very first units because I preordered it long before they produced it.

    I got the 10Ah version in october 2025 and have tested it to last 50 days once already and am at 42 days as of now

    At the moment, unfortunately, no. General average is about 5 to 10 nodes.

    The battery life makes more sense now. As the mesh grows, retransmission increases and therefore power consumption. Either way, the 10Ah Heltec would last the longest.
