LoRa and ESP32 are everybody’s darlings, and when a combination in the form of these small boards appeared on our platforms, it seemed they are a perfect combination. Is this true? Let’s test them.
- A 433 MHz Heltec
- An 868-915MHz Heltec
- An 868-915 TTGO
- And as a reference the Hope RFM95 868 MHz

These boards can be used as LoRa nodes and as TTN gateways.
In this video we have a closer look at these features:
- The ESP32
- The LoRa transceiver
- The antennas
- And the power management part
