We'll be putting out a few LoRaWAN sensors in easily accessible places and are thinking of various ways to mask them. Making them look like something common in our forest. Like putting them in crumpled potato chip bags. Or crushed beer cans. No one would bother to pick them up.
@szescstopni Mylar and aluminum will interfere with the antenna. Try a PET bottle or milk carton instead. One litmus test for a suitable container is to put it in a microwave on a low setting for 20 seconds and see if it heats up or sparks.
@RoboticistDuck Thanks, I wasn't completely serious about this :)
@szescstopni Sad but true. Dora the Explorer mylar balloon wafting in the trees is really a relay.
