Nano Series

Nano G2 Ultra

The Nano Series, designed by Neil Hao from B&Q Consulting and powered by Meshtastic, are devices engineered to be a portable and durable solution for outdoor adventures such as hiking, piloting, skiing and more. They are designed to strike a balance between RFRF (Radio Frequency). The radio signal a node transmits and receives over LoRa. performance, size, ruggedness, and power efficiency — providing users with a reliable solution in various outdoor environments.

Nano G2 Ultra​

The Nano G2 Ultra and Nano G1 Explorer have exactly the same LoRaLoRaA low-power, long-range wireless communication technology used by Meshtastic devices to enable communication over distances of several kilometers without the need for cellular, Wi-Fi, or other traditional network infrastructures. front-end circuit design and internal wideband LoRaLoRaA low-power, long-range wireless communication technology used by Meshtastic devices to enable communication over distances of several kilometers without the need for cellular, Wi-Fi, or other traditional network infrastructures. antenna. The primary design goal of the Nano G2 Ultra is to reduce power consumption and improve battery life by using the low-power MCUMCU (Microcontroller Unit). The microcontroller that runs the firmware on a device. The hardware tables list the MCU for each supported board. nRF52840nRF52840A Nordic microcontroller from the nRF52 family, used in devices such as the RAK WisBlock core modules. Provides Bluetooth LE 5.0 and very low power consumption.. The typical battery life is optimized to be about 3.5 days. As with the Nano G1 Explorer, the Nano G2 Ultra's design also takesTAK (Team Awareness Kit). A situational awareness ecosystem. Meshtastic bridges to it by converting mesh messages to and from Cursor on Target format. into account the potential impact of the human body on its antenna performance, ensuring optimal RFRF (Radio Frequency). The radio signal a node transmits and receives over LoRa. performance even when carried in a pocket.
