Hello,
I would like to experiment with the possibilities offered by the LoRa technology for range, reliability, power consumption, etc.
I am considering the module form RF solutions http://www.rfsolutions.co.uk/acatalog/FM-LORA-Transceiver-Module-pre-set-to-868MHz.html#SID=335
The reasons I find this little one attractive are:
integrated
The application would be to send temperature from inside flats to a receiver placed outside 50 metres away.
Has anyone worked with these devices? Was it successful? The datasheet gives an example implementation using a PIC16F886 but could I use a Picaxe? What are the "gotcha" to watch out for?
Many thanks
Riccardo

- antenna
- Acceptable price
- small size
- low power consumption (claimed)
