Questions
- Do I need a licence to run this in India?
- No. It operates in the 865–867 MHz de-licensed band permitted under WPC GSR 564(E), up to 1 W ERP. The module at 22 dBm with a 3 dBi antenna sits well inside that. Configure the channel at 866.0 MHz — the 915 MHz default that ships on some units is not free in India, and ours are set correctly before packing.
- Why is it sold as a pair?
- A single board is not a flood warning system. You need the sensing node in the field and the base station on the desk to show the link working, and that end-to-end demonstration is what earns the marks.
- How far does the link actually reach?
- We measured 2.1 km line of sight in Chennai with the supplied 3 dBi antennas at −104 dBm RSSI. Dense urban clutter cuts that substantially; the report gives the measurements and the conditions rather than a headline number.
- Does the report come with it?
- Yes. Every kit ships with the editable report (.docx and .pdf), a 20-slide PPT, circuit and block diagrams, commented source with pinned library versions, 25 viva questions with answers, and a printed wiring sheet in the box.
- Can I change the topic or add a feature?
- Tell us on WhatsApp before you order. Small firmware changes are usually fine; a different sensor means a different kit and a different price.
- Is there cash on delivery?
- No. Prepaid only — UPI, card or netbanking. It keeps the price where it is.
- Will the report match my college format?
- The .docx is unlocked and editable, so you add your college name, roll number and guide. The chapter skeleton follows the standard Anna University / AICTE structure.
