Hi All,
This question is asking for people experiences with various RFID readers and their real world range. Hope that these subjective Questions are allowed on the forum.
I have the omnipresent RFID RC522 unit, but it is a few inches short of being an acceptable range for my project.
I need to go through 1-10mm wood/plastic, and still have a range of 15cm. Passive tags only, any freq.
I'm struggling with my own research as various products advertise this range but reviews/videos online show their real world range is actually much less. And the RC522 (with gain set to highest) is indeed way below what was apparently achieved in their lab.
TLDR; I would like to find the cheapest passive RFID tag with a real-world 15cm range. Anyone using one?
