What enclosure are you referring to?
If you mean the one featured in the video, you're free to make them yourself. The design exists as CAD and in 3d printable formats in the github repository. It is not less "real" simply because it hasn't been mass produced.

Otherwise, like we've suggested, you can follow the Aliexpress parts list and make a working device, or use any enclosure designed to prevent water ingress.

Thanks Sam

I was looking at the enclosure shown on the image on https://disaster.radio/ and thought that might have been real :-(

Can you clarify what the current state is - i.e. if I got the boards, built a pair of units, and flashed it - then would the chat and map apps talk over it.

Yes that should be possible. You can buy them pre-flashed if you want to miss that step: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000396836096.html

If using the webapp you only get a chat.

If you use the Android app then you get a chat and a map AFAIK.

By the way ... I notice there is a bad link to the enclosure on https://disaster.radio/build/

Thx started fixing that link here: https://github.com/sudomesh/disaster-radio-website/pull/12 awaiting someone to approve.

This was the enclosure used: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000452268197.html

It's fairly obvious how to put it together, but there are some instructions here too: https://hackaday.io/project/170069-disaster-radio-lora-mesh

Thanks

I've been spending my free time trying to modify the firmware for the v3 dual-module prototype, it is slow-going.

Other LoRa boards seem to work pretty well with the firmware in its current state

   I tried to find out what was happening with Disaster Radio, by
   asking here - got zero responses :-( its really hard to figure out
   if there is anything going on that is useful to connect with :-(

   Hi,active list?Grzegorz
   Sort of. When people ask, someone answers. But not much seems to be
   happening. I do have the impression that those on the list wish there'd
   be more activity, and that most of them sort of hope to contribute. I
   of course do not speak for the coalition.

   Perhaps you can tell us why you're interested and what you'd like to see
   as highest priority.
