Since y'all liked my solar companion I thought I'd show off pipe node. The backbone is a STL I found online I modified a bit but honestly it doesn't have to be printed. A 21700 battery, screenless T114, and a knockoff muzi antenna are glued or zip tied to the rail. I got a solar panel which turned out to have its own battery and voltage regulator so I just plugged the USB from the panel into the board. The whole business got shoved up an 1 1/4" pipe and is held in place with a deck screw. It's open on bottom, I'm in a dry climate so I'm not terribly worried about condensation. This setup is on top of a local mountain and has been running a month with stable connections up to 45 miles away.
