NBIOT/LTE-M Air Monitor
Introduce
This NBIOT/LTE-M1 Air Monitor is equipped with the ability to transmit temperature, humidity, light intensity, CO2 equivalent concentration, and TVOC to the network via SIM7080G. This air monitor is powered by internal 18650 lipo battery charged by solar panel.
It is designed to operate for extended periods with the solar panel to charge the battery and enter a low-power state.And then transmit the data via the NBIOT/LTE-M network, so user can monitor the field status or have them recorded for long-term analyze.
