The top six new mesh Tastic nodes coming into twenty twenty six. Six nodes that have either recently been announced, are fairly new, or maybe they're just coming and you haven't seen them yet. We're going to talk about them today. This is a list of six different Meshtastic nodes that are fairly new coming into twenty twenty six that these didn't exist this time last year, and we're going to talk about them today. These are in no particular order
at all. I just kind of put this list together with some nodes that I knew and did a little bit of research from a couple companies that have reached out to me, and we're just going to go through these today. Now. This Helltech V two has been around for several years. One of the first nodes that we got when we first got into Meshtastic. There was a group of us that went to hamventionin two or three four years ago and we all had Helltech V twos. Well, this is the V three. This is a brand new
ESP thirty two Laura Device V three development board. This particular one on Amazon comes with an eleven hundred million Empire battery and a protective case so you can get these in all kinds of configurations. One of the websites we're going to mention today is this mechnology over here, and they have several expansion kits that you can take a Helltech V three and insert it in at a larger battery, at a screen, at a touchscreen. Add this, add that a lot of expansion going on with the
Helltech V three. So the V three is the new version over the V two from last year. It is tried and true, is very simple. There's not much to it. You do have to have an app on your phone to Bluetooth to it or Wi Fi connect to it and control it from there. Doesn't have its own touchscreen or a keypad or anything like that, so if you want to send messages you have to use an external device. But the Helltech V three is the first one on
the list today. Number two. Let's go back over here to meschnology mechnology dot com and been trading emails with them. They're going to send me some new things fairly soon. This is a think Node M four. Now. I did a video last month about the think Node M one and M two from Ellacro and I'm not sure who actually owns the think node, but this one comes from a mesh pocket Mechnology think node Laurawan device powered by the NRF chip, which means it's a longer lasting battery.
You can see it's got multiple connection points right there for different various charging points and computer interfaces. Okay, no screen, no keyboard, so again you need an external app to use the device effectively. Comes in about seventy four dollars today, and that's for Meschronology. Mechronology has some of those products I was telling you about for the V three. If you come over here to the hell Tech V three,
which they sell also, they make these expansion packs. This guy right here, this is just a big three D printed case with that houses an extra battery. It is for the Helltech V three, And they have this really cool looking one right here that's like a handheld looks like a handheld touch screen device. But if you look down in here in some of the pictures, all they're doing is they're putting a hell Tech board inside of this with a rapid expansion pack, external antenna, lots of
cool stuff on that. So Mechronology's got some cool ideas that they're going on right now. But we were today talking about their think Node M four. That's the one on today's list because this is a fairly new model. Going over here to Spec five. Spec five is a tech this is based company. Been down to their place one time and I've got several devices of theirs. Really like their devices. This one's actually the most expensive one
on the docket today. This one comes in about I wonder why they charge more for the great case about two hundred dollars here. This includes a full Android phone, a complete Android phone. You can put a simcard in or not. You can connect it via Wi Fi. You can connect it to the App store, download any app that you would use on a regular Android smartphone, and it comes with the meshtastic built into this. Three DA
cas is called a Spector Pro. I had one of their original specters, did a video on that a while back. It's a very very small phone. This one is a larger phone. I picked up one of these. You're going to be seeing an independent video about it soon. You can get five dollars off right there. But this Spector Pro is great because it is a standalone device. You don't need anything else. It's got its own Android device. You can download and install mode win Link for Android.
You can install aprs, you can install anything else that you can get from the Android play Store, or any APK file you want to. Because it's a full Android phone and Android system, you could put a SIM card in it, make phone calls on it if you really wanted to. A Spec five Spector Pro is a cool new device. I'd like to see more devices like this upcoming in the future. I'd like to see one that is completely de Googled and separated from Google. Maybe we'll
see something like that in the future. Today's video doesn't have an official sponsor, but I keep a lot of these items on my Amazon mesh Tastic Idea list, So all of the devices that you can get on Amazon are going to be on my list, including the new Helltech V three, So go check that out with the link in the description. Blow. I appreciate you using those Amazon links because they do help to support the channel. Next is a new one from Seed Studio. Now. Seed
Studio makes this really cool T one thousand Echo. I carry this with me every day to this day. Every day I have it in my pocket. It's called KC five HBP Pocket. That is the mesh name of the node for it. And they've got a new version coming out soon. Looking forward to trying that. We're going to look for at another version from another company here in a second. But this is the WEO Tracker L one Pro. It's a low power scalable node featuring the Laura device
and an NRF chip as well. The NRF chip is a much longer battery life than the older ESP thirty two chip. ESP thirty two chip is great, nothing in the world wrong with it, but the NRF chip is a little bit updated, longer battery life and you're going to be seeing that in a lot of new devices upcoming. This one comes in at about forty eight bucks today.
It's gone an OLED and an l seventy six kgps, two thousand million power built in battery lasts up to five days, and it's a really cool device from Seed Studios. Seed Studios has been doing some really great stuff and meshtastic and I'm looking forward to seeing what else they do in twenty twenty six. Number five today comes from Rack Wireless. Rack Wireless has a couple of new one watt devices that are not out yet. They emailed me they said do you want to review these? And I
said absolutely, so I should be getting these soon. You'll see some videos on that upcoming. The Wizmesh high power one watt gateway based on a Raspberry Pie and the Rack thirteen three oh two one watt module for Laura connectivity. So most of these mesh tastic devices are probably a few hundred milliwats, maybe two three hundred milliwats, maybe even
fifty to one hundred milliwats for the smaller ones. So having a one watt device will reach out farther, it will be more scalable because you'll be able to cover a wider area with it. And I'm looking forward to seeing how well those work, especially with an external antenna or a high gain antenna that you might keep on your vehicles something like that. So check out Rack Wireless.
They are setting me up with a new coupon that I don't have yet, so as soon as I get that information, i'll put it in the description of this video and you guys can go check that out. Last one we're going to talk about today is this low mesh pocket s Solar Node Comms Channel did a short video about this. It looks a lot like this T one thousand Echo node. Seed Studios and Rack Wireless has
one too. They call it the whiz Mesh Tag. They call it a tag looks a lot like the Seed Studios T one thousand, but I believe it has a longer battery life in it, or maybe a larger battery or just a longer battery life than the original Seed Studios one does too, So I'm gonna be picking up one of those soon. But this one has a solar pin built onto it. Now, the solar panel's small, probably not going to give you a lot of extra battery life,
but hey, something is better than nothing. So you got a little solar panel, you can connect it to your backpack, you can set it out on the picnic table while you're out doing poda, and it can keep a charge or charge itself or at least maintain the same battery life while you've got mesh Tastic running in the field. So this is one that I just recently found. I don't really know much about it, so maybe I'll just have to grab one of these and do a video
about it myself and see how it looks. So those are six newer or newish nodes. A couple of them aren't even out yet. For the meshtastic World. If you're watching this video six months from now, you're probably thinking, boy, there's been a probably thirty new nodes come out since these that was an old video. I bet we're going to see a lot of really cool new stuff from mesh Tastic come out this year during twenty twenty six. I'm looking forward to checking out most or all of it,
and I hope you will too. If you have anything that you have found that's new in the meshtastic world and you want me to take a look at it, put a comment in the video below. Love to know what you're using as your daily carry for mesh Tastic is Well. Thanks for being here today, and if you like this video, check these out over here because YouTube thinks you want to watch those next seventy three guys.
