# PortaPack Guide
|
||||
|
||||
## Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
PortaPack is an add-on for the HackRF Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform that adds a touchscreen display, buttons, and additional functionality to transform it into a portable SDR device. There are many versions of PortaPack available on the market, created by different manufacturers, often with varying features such as larger screens, added charging capabilities, or different main chips due to price and availability.
|
||||
|
||||
This guide provides an overview of various PortaPack versions, their compatibility with Mayhem, and key differences between models. Please ensure you verify hardware compatibility with the vendor before purchasing, as manufacturers frequently change components without notice.

There are many different versions of PortaPack, mainly due to Chinese companies putting their own take of the design such as adding a larger screen, adding charging or changing the main chip due to price and availability.

**Most manufactures changes components frequently without notifying anyone, thus you should always ask the vendor the compatibility of their hardware before you buy, even if a specific vendor/store/seller already has a lot of positive reviews.**
