The Field Node gives your hiking party GPS position sharing and text messaging across miles of backcountry — with no cell service, no satellite subscription, and no monthly fee.
LoRa radio reaches ridges and valleys where cell never penetrates. With a Field Node in every pack, your whole party sees each other on a shared map — no app subscription required.
GPS-enabled, battery-powered, weatherproof. Your position shows up on every teammate's map automatically. Built for packs, vests, and gloveboxes.
Pre-flashed · Ships 3–5 days · Made to order
In Southern California mountain conditions, a pair of Field Nodes maintains 3–6 km of reliable messaging range across ridges. In open desert or along a coastal trail, range regularly exceeds 10 km. No subscription. No infrastructure. Just LoRa radio.
Everything ships pre-flashed. You'll be on the mesh before you reach the trailhead.
Parts & substitution notice: Node Star products are hand-assembled to order. While we maintain standard bills of materials, component availability may vary. We reserve the right to substitute functionally equivalent parts — same chipset family, equal or greater specification — when sourcing conditions require it. Substitutions will never reduce core functionality. Customers will be notified of any significant changes prior to shipment.
