This site aims to be a complete repository for information and guides for taking abandoned Helium (HNT) miners and giving them purpose. Most of the work here was inspired by the desire to reuse this hardware for Meshcore or Meshtastic, but some people might find a miner interesting for the simple reason that it was a Raspberry Pi 4 they could buy cheap, in a nice enclosure.

If you came here looking for ways to repurpose a non-Helium LoRaWAN gateway, or repurposing a Helium gateway for LoRaWAN, you should still find a lot of the information useful.

The [Crankk project](https://crankk.io/), positioned as a replacement for Helium/HNT but now itself defunct due to some blockchain bankruptcy, has a ton of useful information about various Helium devices, [example](https://crankk.io/guides/crankk-official-guide-for-onboarding-a-mntd-rak-v2-gateway).

Grabbing a mirror would probably be good.

On that note, any official information from vendors might go away at any time as several producers/sellers of Helium devices appear to have gone bankrupt over the last few years.
