Description

This weather resisant case slips over the stand for an Amazon 5W solar panel. Holds a meshtastic device & battery and slips over the solar panel's mount. The mount is tapered so you can get a good tight fit. You can choose to wire the solar panel to the rak board via USB or you can cut the end and connect it to the solar charge port on the RAK mini to shorten the wire (Thats what I did). The bottom door has raised dimples and can flex for easy opening and closing. I also created a slide in mount for the solar mount, this makes it really easy to remove the node for firmware upgrades or any other maintenance! https://www.printables.com/model/1218609-holster-for-5w-solar-mount-meshtastic-node-quick-m
