I ordered a t1000e tracker node when I got it it was defective I contacted customer service and told them about it they sent me a return label I shipped it back in a week later I got a new one I also asked them to test the one that they were sending me to make sure it was working and I got an email from Riley a customer service saying and she checked it so not to be suspicious with the boxers being open she also sent me an email saying that she shipped it out let me know that to be on the lookout for it their customer service is some of the best I've ever dealt with

Great unit that has better range than I'd expect. Very reliable.

Great little radio with a strong durable case. E-paper display works great in direct sunlight. Comes with GPS and a buzzer. Ready to run out of the box.

- Dual-band LR1121 chip: 915 MHz or 2.4 GHz LoRa on one radio, for $35
- muzi.works claims up to 12× faster throughput than Short Turbo at short range on 2.4 GHz
- Assembled in Atlanta from Nordic + Semtech silicon no PRC assembly, no PRC silicon
- Smaller than the RAK4631 stack, LiFePO4 compatible out of the box

If you're running a RAK4631 or any SX1262-based node, the BASE Duo is the most straightforward upgrade path in the Meshtastic ecosystem right now. Same nRF52840 MCU, Meshtastic-approved via the Backer Program, but built around Semtech's LR1121 instead of the SX1262.

The LR1121 puts both 915 MHz and 2.4 GHz LoRa on a single chip. No second radio needed. The LilyGO T-Lora Pager runs the same chip but costs nearly twice as much. Long range works exactly as you'd expect: 2 to 15 km at 915 MHz, same CSS modulation, same -141 dBm sensitivity as your existing nodes. When devices are close together, 2.4 GHz opens up 50–100 kbps at 200–400 meters, up to 12× faster than Short Turbo preset. For bulk transfers between nearby nodes, that matters.

The hardware is well-designed. The BQ28185 charger handles Li-ion and LiFePO4 interchangeably, adds solar input, USB-C fast charge, and proper fuel gauging — none of which the RAK19007 offers. At 42×32 mm it's smaller than the RAK4631 stack, schematics and STEP files are published, and muzi.works maintains their own upstream Meshtastic board support. Not a community fork. The LR1121 on nRF52840 is running in production firmware today.

On supply chain: assembled in Atlanta, Nordic nRF52840, Semtech LR1121 — no PRC assembly, no PRC silicon. The RAK4631 is assembled in Shenzhen. With the regulatory environment tightening around PRC-manufactured network hardware in 2026, the BASE Duo is the cleaner choice if provenance matters to your deployment.

I had a few V3 boards laying around and needed batteries to complete H1builds.

This antenn is nice and flexible and works very well!

Great Parts and super fast delivery!

These came quick in the mail. Had a slight issue and it was immediately fixed, no questions asked. Works way better than the stubby antennas my radios came with. Just all around great experience.

Just works. Great purchase.

Great service and product arived on time and packaged very well

Got this working with pi4b, using USB 3.0 port. Although limited to 22dB due to the current output. Although description says both SMA and U.Fl ports are available, wehooper said to ignore the U.Fl port and just use SMA.

Great outdoor solar node high quality material. Highly recommended. Would purchase again.

Works great, nice and compact format.

Excellent device. Haven't had any issues, easy to use, and gets great range, great battery life.

Order was shipped promptly and arrived ahead of schedule in under a week. Worked out of the box with Meshtastic and updating the firmware was easy. Found 100's of nodes overnight without me leaving the house. The T1000E has been easy to travel with due to it's slim form factor and I have been able to get 2+ days on one charge. Flashed Meshcore on it last night and that seems to be working flawlessly. Very happy with this little device. My only complaint is that it doesn't charge via USB C and I need to purchase a few more charging cables.
