[chbot] LoRa peer to peer

[Daniel Powell]

ESPNow, or WiFi LR, both Expressive protocols. Wifi LR does 1km line of sight or more with good antennas. ESPNow does 500m line of sight, but again more with a reasonable external antenna.

I've played with NRF24L01 and easily done 400m.

On eissue is with the high power versions you need a bit of physical seperation otherwise it seems to overwhelm the front end.



There is a lot of discussion on LoRa and hardware on the discord https://discord.com/channels/1215950134874210334/1218106537403220018

They mainly use 915 Mhz.

I'm looking for a radio link that has a bit better range than an NRF24L01 which I have found doesn't really make 100m reliably. Got some sx1278 modules (for use on 433MHz) on order so I'll be able to experiment but any pointers or experiences in other than LoRaWAN ?

Cheers
