Now another thing has occurred to me - a bit of plaster. The wall will be thinner, maybe it will work![]()

TL;DR: Up to 2 km open-field range and "remote software update for all wireless devices" [Elektroda, Qerek, post #17318891] make ABAX 2 a major leap over ABAX 1, but old modules aren’t cross-compatible. First kits shipped on 1 Apr 2019 [Elektroda, scorpik77, post #17852752]
Why it matters: Installers must know the limits before mixing generations or quoting coverage.
