These parts help convert an inexpensive solar flood light into a solar-powered Meshtastic node using an RAK Wireless Meshtastic starter kit.

Print the RAKMountingPlate.3mf in PLA or some other solid material that will take mounting screws.
Print the RAKBackCover.3mf and AntennaRainSkirt.3mf in a flexible filament to aid water sealing.

The mounting plate fits in place of the original circuit board with a LoRa antenna attached via an SMA pigtail and poking out through the cutout where the movement sensor used to live.
You can reuse the circuit board screws to hold the plate and use some short M3 screws to secure the RAK base.
You will need to cut away some of the back cover of the LED section, as the RAK module stands too tall.
Then use longer screws to attach the printed back cover.
