I’m not sure if this was already possible, but with NWC, we can leave a phone at home acting as a node and use it to send/receive sats. Or is there a better solution that uses the same amount of energy?
Yes is possible, I've explained this into my previous guide: #1332473
A NWC service is not consuming too much battery. You also have to keep the persistent mode on for the embedded node, not only for the NWC service.
This is a good scenario for a small merchant with various Zeus POS for employees.
You create a main Zeus embedded node with NWC service into a tablet or something in your office, then create a bunch of NWC limited accounts only to receive for some Zeus POS.
Done, the employees will use those specific accounts and in this way you can manage separately each of them and have control.
Also you can see the movements they do directly in your main Zeus node.
Or to control your wife spending habits :) giving her only a limited NWC account not a full node.

NWC is really versatile! The POS systems run on the local network (wi-fi only) without needing an internet connection?
reply
It might be needed internet if you use it with an external nostr relay, but if you use your own local nostr relay, is not needed internet, you can use a LAN IP as relay. I think there are already apps for running a simple nostr relay on a mobile.
Good observation! Will add it to my final guide.

It’d be cool if ZEUS added a basic nostr relay to work locally, without needing the internet.
reply
Yeah but this will load too much the code with not so necessary function.
I think is much better to control the nostr relay separately.
reply
That makes sense. At least ZEUS could recommend a functional and tested app (nostr relay) for this purpose.
reply
#asknostr about a simple mobile nostr relay app that can run on a LAN too :)

Actually, we just need a nostr relay with NIP-47, I don't think we need anything else, right?
maybe this one
reply
I couldn't even tell if this relay supports NIP-47

Another option is to use it with Rizful cloud node as you can see in Step 1 - point B.
Also more details in a previous guide: #904362 using Zeus POS + Rizful NWC.
The same you can create sub-accounts in Rizful and configure them in multiple Zeus POS.
That Rizful node being very reliable and always online 24/7 and you manage the liquidity from its web interface to connect a full access NWC account in your manager Zeus app.
