    Why don't you connect the NRF also directly to the battery?

    nRF module should not use over 3.6V and Li-Ion battery is 4.2V when it is full charged.

        I thought you are also powering the Arduino directly from the battery over the 3.3V pin.

          Sometimes we get shitty modules from china:
          https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/1153/we-are-mostly-using-fake-nrf24l01-s-but-worse-fakes-are-emerging
          I made good experiance with these rather expensive ones:

          But even with these I had to be very careful about antenna placement

            Arduino doesn't matter up to 5V so I don't mind for arduino.
            If I feed same power to arduino, I need bigger LDO and also less efficiency.
