Hey,
I have some NRF24L01+ modules, i have ESP8266 but none RFM69, what kind of module is recommended for battery operation ? My guess is either NRF24L01+ or RFM69 since ESP8266 is not suited for battery operation in the long run. I need to make few sensors which are outside of the house so it would be nice for battery operation.

@ToSa i tried compiling your code but it fails on the RPi with allot of errors :

@lasso Are you learning the codes with the receiver inorder to know what to send to them ? I would really like to react on my 433mhz sensors i have for doors and i am interested how to do that and i found your post and i am trying to figure out if i could use some of this code for that purpose, what's your take on that ?

@ToSa How is your system working ? Are you still using the code you cahnged on your sensors and rPI ? Is it working acceptable ?
