These cheap solar panels have been doing a great job of keeping my #meshtastic nodes running, even on the very cloudy days we have had in winter. I have 2 nodes running with these panels each with just a single 18650 battery which is usually fully charged by the end of the day.
Trying this cheap ($26 Australian) USB-C solar panel for charging my Meshtastic node. The battery went from 43% this morning to 56% on a partly overcast day so I think it might work well enough but will be interesting to see how it goes over winter. #meshtastic
