This is a fork of the Havoc firmware, which itself was a fork of the PortaPack firmware, an add-on for the HackRF. A fork is a derivate, in this case one that has extra features and fixes when compared to the older versions.

✔️ Some individuals lean towards the H2 with a metal enclosure, but its advantages remain debated. Share your insights on our wiki.

⚠️ Be cautious , ask the seller about compatibility with the latest releases. Look out for the description of the item, if they provide the firmware files for an older version or they have custom setup instructions, this means it might be NOT compatible, for example:

⚠️ If it looks too different, this might mean that they are using their own recipe, check the different models in our wiki. For example all the H3 and clones of that version use their own version of the firmware. They do not contribute the changes back and eventually you will be left with a device that nobody maintains:
