LPWAN Meshes: Reticulum, Where I Landed covered Reticulum as a communications stack: transport-agnostic, cryptographically addressed, built for chat and file transfer over LoRa, packet radio, or whatever medium is available. This post is narrower on purpose: it breaks down the specific mechanics of moving a sensor reading, not a conversation, through Reticulum: which delivery method to pick, what a reading actually costs in packets and bits per second, and what already exists in the open-source community to build on rather than reinvent.
