Over the past year I’ve tested a lot of Meshtastic builds. Some stay on the bench. Some earn a permanent spot in my kit.
This video goes over my favorite rugged 3D printed node enclosures and why they’ve proven themselves. From compact builds to larger field ready housings, I’ll walk through what works, what doesn’t, and what I trust when deploying nodes.
If you're building a mesh network that’s meant to survive more than sitting on a desk, here are some links to cases and hardware.
