First - you can download and view the rendered file over in the 3D Prints section.
This is the first iteration of my “Passport” case for my RAKWireless RAK19007.
It’s decently small so it can be thrown into a backpack, and with no batteries there’s no risk of fire or to be charged. You can use any external power source with it, such as a laptop, power brick, or mobile device (this works with my iPhone).
You can connect as you normally would, via https://client.meshtastic.org/ over serial/bluetooth/etc, or from a mobile device over bluetooth.
Required Parts
- The printed lid/enclosure
- RAK19007 Base + RAK4631 Core
- RAK12500 GPS Module
- 4x M2.5x5mm screws (for holding the PCB)
- 4x M3 nuts
- 4x M3x12mm screws
Note: I used black oxide ones with my black case. You could use stainless, but with a black case, black screws look nice.
Cad Designs
This is what it looks like within OpenSCAD, including the placeholders I added for the PCB, antennas:
Disassembled
Disassembled view, so you can see how the cables are routed and antennas are laid out. I tried to keep things further away from the LoRA antenna.
Assembled
This is what it looks like assembled. It’s not too large, so it should nicely slide into a backpack.
