SKU 102010611
This thumb-sized LoRa dev kit, featuring the XIAO ESP32S3 and Wio-SX1262 LoRa module, is an ideal starter kit for Meshtastic and LoRa/LoRaWAN projects. Supporting WiFi, BLE, and LoRa, it includes a built-in power management chip and can be extended via IIC, UART, and other GPIO interfaces, with compatibility for Arduino development.
Ready for Meshtastic:Pre-flashed with Meshtastic firmware, the kit works out of the box and can quickly join or create a Meshtastic mesh network.
Dual Wireless Connectivity:Supports long-range LoRa communication (862–930 MHz) along with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and BLE 5.0. When used with a U.FL antenna, it can achieve 2–5 km LoRa communication and 100 m+ Wi-Fi/BLE range.
Thumb-Sized Compact Design:With a compact size of just 21 × 18 mm and the classic XIAO form factor, it is ideal for space-constrained projects such as wearables and embedded devices.
Powerful ESP32-S3 MCU:Powered by the ESP32-S3 dual-core Xtensa processor running up to 240 MHz. The board includes multiple expansion interfaces and supports Arduino and MicroPython development.
Integrated Power Management:Equipped with a USB Type-C interface and built-in lithium battery charging management for flexible power options.
Flexible for Multiple Applications:The same hardware can be used as a Meshtastic node or router, a single-channel LoRaWAN gateway, or a LoRa/LoRaWAN sensor platform
Compatible with XIAO Expansion Board for adding screens and sensors, and add Grove sensors via the Grove expansion Board.

Wio-SX1262 extension board:

- Meshtastic Node & Router: An ultra-small node that can serve as a portable device or as a fixed router to expand the Meshtastic network.
- LoRa/LoRaWAN Sensor: A mini LoRaWAN sensor, ideal for beginners exploring LoRa/LoRaWAN. It can be used with the XIAO extension board and Grove sensors for rapid prototyping.
- LoRaWAN Single Channel Gateway: The most cost-effective single-channel LoRaWAN gateway for connecting multiple LoRaWAN sensors and transmitting data to LoRaWAN Network Servers such as The Things Network and Chirpstack.
Dev board return policy
Development boards are specialty items that generally cannot be resold on return, especially if the firmware has been flashed. Defective boards 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. 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.
