Support for Meshtastic is increasing continuously. These are <i>CircuitMess Chatter 2.0</i> devices (they come in pairs, around 30€ for 2 devices on AMZN).
</p>
<p>
They have some limitations: they only support <i>MediumSlow</i> instead of <i>LongFast</i>, and have a lousy antenna, but work great if those limitations are acceptable for one's use case.

<p><small><i>If you're a hacker you can replace the radio chip with a cheap Heltec RA-62 to support LongFast, and mount a decent antenna.</i></small></p>
