HELTEC® MeshPocket
MeshPocket, made by Heltec, is a compact and portable device that combines QI2 magnetic wireless charging with an integrated low-power Meshtastic device based on the 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. MCUMCU (Microcontroller Unit). The microcontroller that runs the firmware on a device. The hardware tables list the MCU for each supported board. and a 2.13" e-ink display. Available with either a 5000 or 10000 mAh battery, it is designed for everyday use, outdoor exploration, and reliable off-grid messaging.
