BUYING GUIDES · UK STOCK
IoT Buying Guides: Find the Right Sensor Fast
Thirty honest, priced guides — one per use case. Each compares the exact in-stock hardware, explains how to choose, and shows what a real deployment costs.
Start with the problem, not the catalogue
These iot buying guides exist because nobody wakes up wanting a LoRaWAN sensor — they wake up with a warm vaccine fridge, a flooded plant room or a lease break and no utilisation data. Each of the iot buying guides starts from one of those problems and walks to the exact hardware that solves it, with real GBP prices on every device.
Everything in these iot buying guides is in UK stock and buyable today; most use cases land between £300 and £1,500 of hardware for a complete working system including the gateway. Where your situation is unusual — hazardous zones, huge estates, legacy integrations — every guide ends the same way: call us on 023 9223 3611 and an engineer will spec it properly.

How these IoT buying guides fit together
Almost every system on this site shares one backbone: battery sensors talking to a LoRaWAN gateway. That means the second use case is nearly free — the school that installs CO2 monitors adds vape detectors on the same gateway; the FM team that fits leak sensors adds heating controls next winter. Start anywhere; the network compounds.
If you prefer to browse by sector or by product family instead, use the pills below — the same hardware appears wherever it is relevant, always at the same UK-stock prices. These iot buying guides are updated as the range and prices change.

Frequently asked questions
Are the prices on these guides live?
They reflect our current ex-VAT web pricing at the time of writing and we refresh the iot buying guides as the range changes — but the product page is always the authority. Click through to any product for the live price and stock position.
Can you just tell me what to buy?
Yes — that is genuinely the fastest route for anything beyond a single-site starter system. Call 023 9223 3611 or use the quote form with a one-paragraph description of the problem, and an engineer will return a priced device list, usually within one working day.
Do you sell to consumers or only businesses?
We are a B2B supplier first — pricing is ex VAT and the hardware is industrial grade — but we happily supply sole traders, landlords, smallholders and serious home projects. The same guides apply; the kit does not care.
What if my use case isn't covered by a guide yet?
The catalogue is far bigger than thirty guides — parking, fall detection, e-ink signage, SCADA bridging and more. Browse the solutions library or just ask; if enough people need a guide we write it next.
