Useful links:

vaRDas is kind enough to maintain a flasher with the latest releases of the firmware.

Find update-nice_nano_bootloader-0.9.x, and copy the uf2 across to your pro-micro.

Some useful information on the board that the Pro-Micro is "inspired by".

Other peoples boards:

Fake-tec - NRF52840

https://github.com/gargomoma/fakeTec_pcb/

  • Uses the same NRF52840 Pro-micro boards as my designs above
  • An excellent design, using the outline of the Heltec v3 to take advantage of all the cases out there.
  • Has a voltage divider built-in, with thru-hole or SMD resistors
  • Can flush-mount the PCB to reduce height even further

Cheapmesh - ESP32-C3

https://gitlab.com/paulhausk/CheapMesh/-/tree/main

  • HT-CT62 based
  • Multiple options to power & interface
  • Initial issue has native USB d+/d- switched - check before building
  • Has components on the underside that make it harder to assemble

Econotastic - RP2040

https://sites.google.com/view/econotastic/home

  • RP Pico (or clone) as MCU
  • Uses RA-01SH, but can also use HT-RA62
  • Changes in code not really required - see TCXO_OPTIONAL

Mesh Heltec Tiny - ESP32-C3

https://oshwlab.com/vardas/meshheltectiny

  • HT-CT62 based
  • Pretty complete

Ikoka nano

https://github.com/ndoo/ikoka-nano-meshtastic-device

  • Uses NRF52 based Xiao board
  • Uses a 30db radio module, 1W of power in a very small package

Original Xiao BLE node

https://github.com/meshtastic/firmware/blob/master/variants/xiao_ble/README.md

  • Uses NRF52 based Xiao board
  • Shows the basic pinout and procedures for making the basic node.
  • The original!
