Dear all,

your thoughts on Xrange 2 vs. Raspi plus various feeders? Is it worth buying one?

The xrange is powered by a Pi,  I would suggest that if you are happy with your Pi, stay with it.  Range is also dependent on the peripherals, antenna, cable. stick, location etc anything less than optimum will deplete the range.  Looking at yours you have no problems
