There's a popular DIY for turning a cheap Harbor Breeze solar light into a Meshtastic node. Unfortunately, that light doesn't seem to be available anymore. I previously designed a base to work with a newer model light that was readily available near me.
This is a new mount for that same light that accommodates two antennas: A female N-type antenna for LoRa, like Rokland's low-profile fiberglass antennas, and an SMA antenna for bluetooth.
Like my prior design, this leverages the solar panel's existing adjustment mechanism and keeps the antennas in a vertical orientation. The cables are internally routed and I included two snap plugs to keep out moisture and debris.
Sorry about the crummy picture. I finished and mounted this at night. I'll take a better one next time I'm on the roof.
