Elecrow Meshstick USB-To-SPI SX1262 TCXO LoRa USB Stick Meshtastic/LoRa Mesh Node
Pickup available at 3205 SW 40th Blvd Ste A
Usually ready in 1 hour
Meshstick is an open-source LoRa Mesh USB adapter based on the CH341 + SX1262 chipset. It features a standard USB plug-in design, a semi-transparent black casing, an integrated SMA external antenna interface, and is powered via the USB bus, requiring no external power supply.
Simply plug Meshstick into any Linux/macOs device (Raspberry Pi, industrial host, software router, OpenWRT router, Steam Deck, or even an x86 desktop computer), and the meshtasticd daemon will upgrade the device into a complete Meshtastic network node. With web management, users can remotely configure, send, and receive messages, and monitor the network without additional hardware.
Its core value lies in transforming any device with Linux/macOS computing capabilities into a LoRa repeater node or area-coverage gateway in a Meshtastic network at the lowest cost and in the smallest possible size.
This further lowers the deployment threshold of Meshtastic networks, making it the lowest-cost solution for building LoRa relay nodes and regional coverage gateways, targeting makers, radio enthusiasts, emergency communications, and IoT developers.
Key Features
- USB Direct Plug and Play: No external power supply required; powered via USB bus, automatically recognized and running when plugged into a Linux device.
- Multi-Device Support: Supports x86-64/arm64/armhf architectures, compatible with mainstream platforms such as Raspberry Pi, industrial hosts, soft routers, OpenWRT routers, and Steam Deck.
- Meshtastic Compatibility: Perfectly compatible with Meshtastic's official firmware, driven by the meshtasticd daemon, supporting a web UI management interface.
- Open Source Ecosystem: Fully open-source hardware design with an active community, supporting secondary development and feature expansion.
- Long-Range LoRa Communication: Employs the Semtech SX1262 chip, external SMA antenna interface, supporting EU868/US915 bands and external antennas.
- Unique Device Identification: Onboard I²C EEPROM (24C02), pre-programmed with a unique device serial number. Ensure each node has a unique and traceable identity within the Mesh network.

Dev board & device return policy
Development boards and devices are specialty items that generally cannot be resold on return, especially if the firmware has been flashed. Defective boards and devices can be replaced or returned for refund within 30 days of purchase. Non-defective boards can be returned in the same time frame if in like-new condition with a 20 percent restocking fee applied. The reason is to help cover our original ship cost and item value depreciation for being used. If the board has had altered firmware or became bricked due to a non-standard firmware flash, the board may not be eligible for return.
Sales tax is required in many states and will be added at checkout if applicable to your delivery state. Tax exempt forms can be sent to our support department.
Shipping & Returns
Effective September 1, 2026, FREE US shipping available on all orders $20 and over, with a $4.95 shipping charge on orders below $20
For over 20 years we've been able to offer free sitewide shipping in the USA, but with the latest massive postage rate hike, we are unable to do so on smaller value orders. Rate changes from USPS on July 12, 2026 erased ounce based pricing, so now a 2 ounce item ships at the same rate as a 2 lb one, in some cases almost double the cost.
We know shipping charges are not a fun experience, so we will still offer free shipping on all orders over $20.00 USD. For orders below this value, a flat $4.95 shipping assistance charge will apply. In many cases our actual ship cost will be higher, but by collecting this amount we can continue to offer low prices on smaller items like connectors and pigtails.
We are in Florida and ship to: USA, Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Israel, Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and other countries (see full list in cart).
Local pickup available in Gainesville, FL
Expedited shipping orders placed before 3PM EST weekdays will ship that day. Standard shipping orders ship within 1-2 business days.
Sales tax: shipments shipped to states in which we are registered to collect tax will have appropriate tax added at checkout. Tax exempt forms can be sent to our support staff who can activate exemption status.
Lost packages and insurance
Hawaii & International Shipping:
While Hawaii is not international, packages from our Florida location with free standard shipping may take up to a month. We suggest purchasing expedited air shipping for Hawaii (note batteries cannot be shipped by Air). International shipping options are visible in cart by using the shipping estimator. Transit times posted are estimates. International packages are subject to customs holds and duty payment may be required by your government on delivery. The cost of duty is not reimbursable. International shipping charges are not refundable in the event of a return.
Returns
See item description for product specific return policies, and return policies vary by item.
Bulk/High Value Order Returns
Due to the labor required to package and ship bulk orders, as well as cost and stock issues involved in replenishing items, bulk orders of 5 pieces or more are not returnable unless the equipment is defective or mis-advertised, or a return period is pre-negotiated. For non-defective returns over $500, a restocking fee may be deducted from the refund to cover bank or card processing fees.
Backorder/Preorder
Items on back order or pre-order will ship as estimated on the item page. You can cancel an order any time up until shipment. Orders with expedited shipping will arrive in the advertised time after the order ships, not after the order is placed.
Cancellations
If you want to cancel an order, please email or call us at (352) 372-9902. If your item has not been shipped, we will cancel the order and provide a full refund.
