Re: Is there a list of members of the forum (preferably trusted) with LN nodes?

I'm wanting to open up a few connections with people so I can have more of a reach with my electrum wallet and can increase their reach while my wallet is online.

IS there a list or should we make one,  I'm considering whether to run my own node as well but all I'd be able to run it from safely is a pi with a pruned chain (and without a constant connection)...

I have an Eclair LN Wallet on my Android Device and a Zap LN Wallet on my PC.  The Zap wallet I leave open for days/weeks on end (PC restarts aside) while the Eclair LN wallet is open every few days either to see the balance or add fresh funds I am receiving from the Signature Campaign I am in.

Neither wallet shows up on 1ml.com nore do the channels I have opened on either platform.  I figure because of the mobile phone's regular on/off I don't have a static enought IP and the same is probably true for the PC on Broadband.

If people want to PM me their node address (such as the one below) I'd be happy to add you to my list which I am rebuilding after I uninstalled an earlier Eclair LN on my phone.

You can always open one to me:

Code:

Thinking about it; someone should probably start a thread where everyone here can post their LN info for other people here to open channels to.
Kind of keeping it in the family.

@philipma1957 I've only just come across this thread and am sorry to hear about the recent power/storm issues in your area.  Can I suggest you look into investing in some solar/power packs from the GoalZero.com company?  I have some of their smaller products and recommend them over similar due to their use of USB or 6V connectors between products unlike other products that rely on copper wires you have to wind up or around.
