About this item

Introducing the Spec5 Relay, a solar-powered Meshtastic LoRa Relay System, designed for seamless, autonomous operation as a relay station. This system is built for rugged, permanent installation on poles, buildings, or towers, ensuring reliable communication in remote areas or anywhere an expansive network is required.

Product Specification: Spec5 Relay, CPU: 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4, Flash: 256 Kb, RAM: 1 Mb, Frequency: 915 MHz, Dimms: 16 x 10 x 7 Inch, Weight: 2.5lbs, Battery: 2 x 18650, Antenna: 50cm Outdoor IP67 Waterproof 8DBI WiFi Fiberglass Aerial, Urban Range: ~3-10 miles depends greatly on mounting height, Rural Range: ~10-30 miles depends greatly on mounting height, Battery Life: 8 hrs active / 24 hrs standby, Solar Charging: Active, Solar Panel 12W, Construction: ABS Housing w/metal Arm

Solar-Powered & Autonomous Operation: Fully powered by a 12W solar panel and dual 18650 LiPo batteries, the Spec5 Relay operates autonomously, ensuring continuous off-grid communication without the need for external power sources.

Long-Range Connectivity: Extends communication coverage up to 3-10 miles in urban areas and 10-20 miles in rural environments, depending on mounting height and line of sight.

Durable ABS Construction with Metal Arm: Made from high-quality ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), this construction offers exceptional impact resistance and toughness, ensuring long-lasting durability. The integrated metal arm enhances structural strength and provides reliable support in demanding applications. ABS is also resistant to heat and chemicals, making it ideal for environments requiring resilience and performance.

Efficient Bluetooth Integration: Easily tether to your phone via Bluetooth to update settings and connect with Meshtastic LoRa devices (e.g., Trekker, Beacon, Copilot, MeshClip) for flexible, real-time operation.

Ideal for Off-Grid and Remote Communication: Perfect for remote campsites, hiking expeditions, emergency networks, and off-grid installations, the relay station supports seamless communication over long distances.

Easy Installation & Maintenance-Free: Designed for permanent mounting on poles, towers, or buildings, the Spec5 Relay offers simple installation and requires minimal maintenance, making it ideal for long-term use in rugged environments.
