  1. I used #Bluetooth / #BLE as a short-range stand-in for #LoRa to test #Reticulum mesh behavior with #TBeamSupreme units.

    The RSSI graph worked: carry two units away from a base pair, watch signal strength decay, disappear, then recover on return.

    The GPS trace? Woeful. Useful lesson: RSSI test succeeded; urban T-Beam GPS precision did not.

  5. Which case actually makes sense for a LilyGO T-Beam SUPREME in real field use?

    I compared designs, materials, print costs, and durability (PLA vs nylon vs resin), plus SD-card access. Includes a side-by-side video (7' 49") comparison.
