SenseCAP Card Tracker T1000-E for Meshtastic (EU868)

The credit-card-sized Meshtastic tracker. The SenseCAP Card Tracker T1000-E is one of the smallest and slimmest Meshtastic devices on the market. At just 6.5 mm thick, it slips easily into a wallet, pocket, or bag making it ideal as an EDC tracker, a backup communicator for hikes, or a discreet asset tracker.

Pre-flashed with Meshtastic firmware and ready to use out of the box. Pair it with the Meshtastic app via Bluetooth, and you're on the mesh.

Looking for a Bigger Battery?

The T1000-E uses the LR1110 chip, which has a documented limitation: it cannot receive packets from older SX127x-based Meshtastic devices. If your local mesh includes T-Beam V1.x or Heltec V2 nodes, consider the WisMesh Tag (€47) instead — it has the SX1262 chip for full mesh compatibility, plus a 1000 mAh battery (43% more capacity), IP66 waterproofing, and a dedicated reset button.
