I'm not even sure that OpenWRT can handle advanced power management like that.
"opkg find '*battery*'" only gives me this:
luci-mod-battstatus — Provides a battery charge indicator in LuCI. Currently only supports the HooToo HT-TM05 travel router.
Looks like there isn't much of a choice here 🤷
come to think of it if i relax the constraint to include power bank and external model a tl-mr3020 could fit the bill 🤔
also this gives me hope, i think i can get one of these https://forum.openwrt.org/t/add-support-for-tp-link-m7350-v4/132119 🤞 might just hop onto matrix and see how they've been doing since february
@unspeaker @tiredhorizon
Yep, especially if you take all the info on OpenWRT's wiki into account: https://openwrt.org/toh/hootoo/ht-tm05
Looks like it's quite tricky to flash in case things go awry — that information might be outdated, but if I were you, I'd think twice when considering it.
Normal well-supported router and a power bank might be a more solid choice 👍
@tiredhorizon
yep, was considering 5v power bank + dc/dc converter + regular 9v/12v router. started daydreaming about 3d printing an assembly to keep them all together.
@m0xee
nice find! definitely an interesting piece of kit and very close to what i'm looking for, since it doubles as a powerbank, and with a pluggable lte modems i could theoretically rotate imei 😼 will keep an eye out if one shows up anywhere near me
neither is quite pocket-sized tho 😆
