Title: RFM69 shield for RPI ?
Post by: gert on May 26, 2017, 09:55:43 PM
Hi there,

There is some nice small footprint RFM69 shield (homebrew version)
http://jeelabs.org/2015/05/20/rfm69-on-raspberry-pi/ (http://jeelabs.org/2015/05/20/rfm69-on-raspberry-pi/)

Is there any ready made (small form factor) RFM69 board for RPI?

Thanks,
Gert

Yes. The Open Energy Monitor project (openenergymonitor.org) makes one.

https://shop.openenergymonitor.com/rfm69pi-433mhz-raspberry-pi-base-station-receiver-board/

These use the RFM69CW (compatible with RFM12B) radios at 433mhz, so if you use them with Moteinos, just make sure to use the same.

I wanted something like that too, but my solution is more integrated and self contained, with lots more features and optional LCD, it's called the

MightyHat. I make and support this piece of hardware.
