The Elecrow ThinkNode-M1 is a high-performance multi-function Meshtastic Transceiver integrating advanced wireless communication technology and multiple sensors. This LoRa device is expertly designed for outdoor adventures, environmental monitoring, and emergency communications. The Elecrow ThinkNode-M1 uses nRF52840 as its main processor and supports Bluetooth, allowing users to easily configure and monitor it via mobile phones. The M1 comes pre-installed with Meshtastic firmware. Combined with the powerful SX1262 wireless chip, this Transceiver can efficiently send and receive LoRa signals, providing users with reliable long-distance communication capabilities. The ThinkNode M1 is perfectly compatible with the official Meshtastic App, which enables users to configure device parameters, manage message communication, share maps and locations, and monitor network status.
