Does anyone have a ZigBee/Xbee ?

[Matthias Lee]

Hello everyone,

Does anyone have a ZigBee/Xbee I could borrow and/or experience with using them?

I found out my water meter is read with one, so i would like to see if i can read it my self using my own zigbee.

 I was borrowing James Breger's Xbee's. Don't have any of my own to loan out.

I think that I saw some XBee units in the Museum Store at the National Electronics Museum on Wednesday night.

I've used them a fair amount; they're pretty nice devices!

If ad-hoc meshing is your goal and you don't care that the
over-the-"wire" protocol is actually ZigBee, I like the Xbee Digimesh
devices better than the ZigBee ones. (DigiMesh is a custom protocol by
that company, similar in spirit to ZigBee). You can also reflash the
DM versions to speak 802.15.4 (and the series 1 units to -DM
firmware).

You can get some serious total range with the 900 MHz PRO variants and
a few hops.
