The channel LarrunKNCT can be joined today with off-the-shelf hardware — no DIY building required. The Heltec Mesh Node T114 (≈€27, our reference device) is hard to find from a French retailer; a platform like AliExpress is often the simplest option.
Heltec Mesh Node T114
Semtech SX1262 radio chip, colour TFT screen, Bluetooth 5.0, rechargeable battery (~5 days of battery life).
⚠️ Make sure to choose the 868 MHz (EU) version — not the 915 MHz (US) or 433 MHz (Asia) ones, which are incompatible with the LarrunKonnect network.
See on AliExpressBattery for the standalone device
3.7V 3000mAh LiPo (PL103665 connector), compatible with the T114 and most Heltec LoRa nodes. Essential if you want to deploy your node outdoors or away from a USB socket, without a permanent power supply.
