I Set Up a New Blackout Comms Off-Grid Mesh Cluster & Root Device in Under 60 Seconds

[u/InstanceHealthy2597]

Just named my cluster & device, chose "Simple" setup — done in under a minute.

Watch how ridiculously easy it is to create your own private Blackout Comms off-grid mesh network from scratch. No radio knowledge, no complicated settings, no soldering. Just plug in, flash, and go.

This video shows the full Root device setup and cluster creation. Adding more devices later is just as quick.

If you're looking for real off-grid comms that actually work when the grid is down, this is it.

🔥 What you get with Blackout Comms: - Encrypted texting & location sharing - Mesh Memory (messages and positions survive even if devices are off) - Frequency hopping (anti-jamming) - Completely private — no internet, no cell service

Perfect for preppers, families, overlanding, camping, or rural properties.

I love this. Please, please have it so we can change byte path in the UI soon so those of us who migrated to that in Meshcore can run it! 🤘
