RSSI of -48 dBi? Seems a mistake to me when RSSI is in dB-isotrope. It highly unlikely that you reference RSSI to an isotrope. “dBm” is more apropertiate IMHO

it’s the value forwarded to the backend… if its wrong kick @Charles :rofl:

forwarded

Kick @Charles:wink:

Today code optimisation of my Meetjestad node connected to an Honywell particle sensor. This image was captured with my Siglent scope (good suggestion on this forum) and a uCurrent Gold (eevblog).

dual voltage power unit with 4 x 12000 mA in 2S2P balanced config, output 8.4 v (dc/dc to 5 and 12v)

x1117
before mounting the cells I charge them individually to an equal value, mount the balance board and leave them balancing for a night, then discharge the pack and recharge… and finally test.
goal is 2 days working on battery’s (without sun/charging)

'recycle older 4:3 d-sub monitors (the ones that you get for free :wink: ) with help of
this 1080P Hdmi Female To Vga Male With Audio Output Cable Converter Adapter C6V5


US $4.42

So a man contacts me via TTN, asks can we meet and talk LoRaWAN, drops the letters “PIR” in casual concersation and I go all @BoRRoZ!20181022_230616
…and build a PIR node to demo. My ultra low power PIR’s vanished in shipping but this should go for a while on a 18650 for demo :slight_smile:

Which ultra low power PIR’s did you order?

you can modify the 'standard PIR’s to operate @3V (and lowering the operating current)

or buy a low current one like this module (15uA!)

but don’t forget… low power comes with a price… detection distance

@fewi The units I purchased but which were lost were the 15uA PIR’s that @BoRRoZ links to just above here ^^^
