Supported Devices

Meshtastic firmware can be installed on a wide range of development boards. The list below provides a brief comparison of currently supported hardware.

Which board should I choose?

While all the boards listed on this page will run Meshtastic and mesh with each other, some current community favorites are:

• RAK Meshtastic Start Kit: RAK19007+RAK4631
• Seeed Card Tracker T1000-E
• Heltec Mesh Node T114
• Nano G2 Ultra
• Station G2
• LILYGO LoRa T3-S3

Please do your research and choose the board that meets your needs (or maybe already have in a bin somewhere).

info

• We strongly recommend choosing devices equipped with the newer Semtech SX126x or LR11xx series, as they offer improved performance and better compatibility than the SX127x series.
• nRF52-based devices use less power than ESP32-based devices and are therefore generally preferred for solar and handset applications.
• ESP32-based devices require more power to operate but are typically lower-cost alternatives that do perform well when using house power, or for handsets that only require a day or two of runtime, and for applications that require WiFi connectivity or more RAM.
