I haven’t even connected it to the app yet but I’ll check when I do. Thanks!

I got a kit and just assembled it. I tried to google it and I can turn it off but it powers back up after 5 minutes or so. I haven’t even set it up yet. Any ideas what’s going on?

Not sure if this falls under this topic but I am looking for a good ebook reader (eink). Any recommendations for something independent and secure?

Thanks. Off to Meshtastic.org to learn more haha

I had set the fuzziness to 2km and it does show the radius and the pin in the general area (with in the radius). Why would send it the precise location then? I like the fuzziness. I don’t need anybody to track my exact location.

Toggling the fixed position helped. Now it’s working.

I am rural AB so lots of sky available. I’ll give it some time I guess. No chatter on the longfast and my message hasn’t gone anywhere yet. I’ll give it some time too. As far as I understand people have to be available to receive not like email or text where it’s just delivered to read later. Edit: got the location fixed. I toggled fixed position and that was enough to kick it into gear.

Thanks I checked. It’s switched off. Edit: I toggled it to fixed for a few minutes and then back off. That actually got it going. Now it’s a (fuzzy) position at my location. Thanks for that!

 

Finally after over a month of order issues I have one of my T1000-E trackers. It was easy to set up and connect and I see several nodes. Haven’t reached anybody yet. I am in Canada but the location on the map still shows Shenzhen in China. I don’t see anything to change that and was also expecting the GPS would do its thing?!

I don’t have a potato cannon. The solar node would still have to be mounted. It’s all ok. We find another spot.

[–] bowreality@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

We need a bucket crane thing or so. I am sure we find another place. This would be just easy to mount if it was reachable.

It’s quite tall. It’s a shop for tractors. I don’t think it’s doable really. We’ll find another spot. I just thought the post is perfect and the lamp can go anyways.

[–] bowreality@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It’s not longer connected. Can’t step on the roof I think. It won’t carry a person.

 

The lamp isn’t used/connected any longer. It’s wide open around the building but no way to get there. The tractor won’t reach. 😟

 

Has anybody heard about this? I ordered a couple beginning of the month. They were back ordered with an estimated re-stock date of Oct 25. Now I get an email they are discontinued and it sounds like the order is cancelled. 😞

I tried to find another store in Canada who sells it but no luck?! Also if it’s discontinued what should I buy instead?

 

👋🏻 Brand new to this. I just ordered 2x T1000-E. I can’t wait to try it.
