These little meshtastic devices were perfect for our adventure race. We purchased 20 of these to track race teams through the back country. With high powered nodes we were able to create a broad area mesh. Very cool. Very convenient.
I was a little wary in ordering this. Including 3D printed components typically means the quality isn't great. And boy was I wrong. This may be the finest 3d printed components I've seen. I am completely confident in its IP rating.
I'm new to meshtastic hardware, so keep that in mind. Technically in the weeks I've been using it, the range appears as promised. Connectivity between the phone and is really good - range is great and connection is rock solid.
I plan on getting a second for other members of my party and I'll be able to put it to a better test.
Super small footprint, looks professionally made and its not 3d printed junk like some of the others on the market.
Overall, the MuZi R1 Neo is a very well-designed device. However, it does have a few weaknesses that only become apparent after extended use. For example, the charging status displayed in the app is sometimes unreliable. This definitely needs improvement. Nevertheless, I appreciate the device itself and will continue to recommend it.
I really like the build of the device. It works well and seems to connect to the app easily. As it is flashed it is not able to connect to the Meshtastic web client however. It sees the com port and attempts to connect but never is able to get data from the device. Hopefully this if fixed in a firmware update.
Other than that I like it a lot and it is small and convenient.
