KLAX: the easiest way to read energy meters via LoRaWAN
summary
A battery-powered IR reader called KLAX reads the legally exposed meter serial stream, mounts by magnet, wakes every 15 minutes to capture pulses, saves measured values and transmits hourly after four samples over LoRaWAN via a TTN Indoor Gateway. The bundle includes QR-coded keys and a Quick Start, a GitHub parser to decode the compact payload, and a webhook path into DataCake for charts and KPIs. Device works on many common meters and firmware/configuration messages are available over downlinks.
