Faketec DIY Board for Meshtastic

Build the cheapest nRF52840-based Meshtastic Node on the planet.
The Faketec V3/V4 board is specifically designed to build a Meshtastic Node, using a nRF52840 (low power) ProMicro baseboard.

Compatible with the ProMicro Dev Board V2 and a range of LoRa radios that have the same form factor as the Heltec HT-RA62.

The V3 variant adds power and select button traces
Features:

• Small size based on Heltec v3
• i2c side ports ready to connect an OLED SSD1306 screen.
• Battery sensing: You can use SMD or through-hole resistors.
• 2mm mounting holes.
• Compatible with HT-RA62 / RA-01SH LoRa modules (and others with a similar footprint).
• Refer to this link for more information and required materials: https://github.com/gargomoma/fakeTec_pcb
  
  Check the selection when ordering.
  PCB Only and Full Kit options are available
  
  Full Kit Includes:
• FakeTec PCB
• HT-RA62 Radio (868MHz)
  
• ProMicro nRF52840 Dev Board (Main Board)
  
• 2x 1M/1.5M Ohm Resistors
• 2x Buttons
  

The V4 variant adds power and select button traces, along with 3 MOSFETs for switching peripherals.
Features:

• Small size based on Heltec v3
• i2c side ports ready to connect an OLED SSD1306 screen.
• Battery sensing: You can use SMD resistors.
• 2mm mounting holes.
• Compatible with HT-RA62 / RA-01SH LoRa modules (and others with a similar footprint).
  
• 3 rear-mounted MOSFETs for GPS and two other peripherals (vibration motor, buzzer, etc.)
• Refer to this link for more information and required materials for the V4: https://github.com/gargomoma/fakeTec_pcb/issues/16

FakeTec Kit no longer includes a LoRa antenna. Add a pigtail + antenna to your cart if you don't have an 868MHz antenna.

Due to the specialized nature of SMD soldering, no warranty is provided on products that have to be DIY Soldered. 

All components are tested before shipping.
