Hey there,
I’ve got a code for a discount of 5% for the Dragino LG308 LoRaWAN Gateway on Tindie. So if you are going to buy one, feel free to use them.
Code: 338FE091
Of course I have tested the LG308 by myself and I think it has the best price-performance ratio for private makers.
Its easy to use, can be easily configured to TTN (or a private LoRaWAN Server) and is ready to use in <15min.
I also compared it to other gateways (Laird, Ursalink and Multitech):
The range and RSSI was quite as good as the Multitech (~800$) and for me better than the Laird and
Ursalink.
For the sake of completeness: Yes, it is an affiliate code. So you get something, I get something. Win Win.
We just received a shipment from the factory, the Coredump iC880A backplane boards are finally back in stock 
https://shop.coredump.ch/2019/09/02/ic880a-backplane-back-in-stock/
We have decided to include a special offer for hackers and makers:
Our Offer for Hackers and Makers
Are you part of a hackerspace, makerspace or some other community group and want to build a gateway for a non-commercial project that somehow benefits the public (e.g. a public gateway for The Things Network)? We want to support these use cases! Drop us an e-mail at shop@coredump.ch explaining your project to get the backplane 33% cheaper!
Cheers, and build some more gateways!

Hello LoRa friends,
Your beloved station bike has certainly been stolen from you. Bike wasn’t expensive, but it was yours. With the SolarVeloTracker, you can find your bike again.
I recently designed a BikeTracker
Here are some key facts:
- Sends current GPS position every hour (via ThingsNetwork)
- Integrated solar panel to extend the battery life
- Rearlight is switched on automatically when using the bike (only night)
- Automatic switch-off of the rear light after approx. 4 minutes
Assembly:
- Taillight can be mounted on any luggage rack.
- The distance between the mounting screws is 8cm.
Package:
1x Solar Velotracker / ThingsNetwork
1x power supply
1x USB cable
Price 134 CHF.
What do you think ?

Too expensive and a TTN network must be in the city.

ST announced their LoRaWAN SoC - STM32 with ARM Cortex M4 and LoRa radio on a single piece of silicon.

LoRaWAN-enabled People Counter
This is a small device based on Murata’s CMWX1ZZABZ-078 that uses two IR sensors to detect passage of people across a threshold, like a doorway. The device is capable of detecting the direction of threshold crossing, so keeps track of ingress and egress events seperately. Applications include monitoring human traffic, keeping track of room occupancy, intrusion detection, etc.
The device runs on a 950 mAH coin cell battery or two AAA batteries and lasts up to three years of continuous usage at 10 minute LoRaWAN reporting interval. Typical continuous power usage at this reporting rate is 35 uA.
Edit: In the latest design the IR sensors run at a continuous 50 Hz and draw ~5 uA each. They are set to interrupt the MCU upon threshold crossing, so the system stays in its low power state until interrupted by the sensors. Right now the LoRaWAN Tx is set on a fixed timing interval, but one could switch this to a combination low frequency update, like once per hour or day and a Tx-on-detect kind of scheme for applications where few transits are expected. Lots of possibilities, but the current draw is dominated by the LoRaWAN Tx.
The device is housed in a 2.5 x 2.5 x 1 inch Bud Industries container and is simply mounted via VHB foam tape.
In our initial testing the device has achieved > 95% accuracy.
The device began as a Hackaday.io project and we are now commercializing the technology for sale. We have redesigned the prototypes for efficient manufacture and to minimize build costs and have started production and beta testing for prospective customers. Pricing will be set after all production costs are determined but we expect the initial price of each device will be around $60; less at higher volumes.

Platform Main Capabilities:
Asset Inventory:
-Automatic Inventory of devices and gateways
-Tracking
-Classification by importance and labeling
-Geolocalized Map Visualization
-Drill-Down Analytics
Network Overview:
-Status of gateways and devices
-Lost messages, retransmissions, failed Joins
-Frequency between messages
-Devices by gateway

It seems you’re implementing LAF in the screen below? But like discussed earlier, the 2nd item below is moot, and the 4th item may be moot too. See LoRaWAN Security Research Paper is now published! - #6 by arjanvanb
Hi! Yes, a big part of LAF’s code was used for the engine of this tool. I know that some rules may not apply to TTN, but this tool wasn’t meant only for TTN and this is why we implemented policies so that the user can enable/disable certain checks. Regarding the 4th item, the tool doesn’t flag retransmissions as duplicated since it does other checks first.

SEMTECH LR1110 based LoRa developer board.
The last few months Skylab has been quietly working on a new small prototyping board based on the Semtech LoRa® LR1110 LoRa Edge™ Asset Management Platform. This ultra-low-power prototyping board equipped with LoRa LoRaWAN, GPS / GNSS, WiFi geolocation, for precise in and outdoor positioning, capable of measuring Temperature, Humidity, Barometric pressure, Acceleration and Magnetic field. This LoRa developer board is Arduino IDE compatible and WEMOS pin-compatible which gives extra possibilities. Our team has been working very hard to optimize the last design details and we are happy to announce that we start the first production.
If you have any questions about our new product please feel free to contact us or visit the webpage:
LR1110 LoRa developer board UPDATE. Today we started the production of the first (small) batch of the New LR1110 board. With this development we are one step closer to full-scale production. The first batch of the new LR1110 based developer board was very promising and the PCB is nearly perfect but here at skylab, we strive for perfection. which is why will test and inspect these first boards extremely thoroughly to find and improve every imperfection. we are very excited to start working with the brand new LR1110. 
What were the imperfections in the chip - I’d assume you’d not be able to correct those yourself?
Hi @descartes ,
In the chip we didn’t find any imperfections I have edited the message it was a bit confusing.
On the PCB we could expect some imperfections but so far so good 
any pricing news?
working code?
sleep current?
