## Pricing

- **Price:** $209.95 (inc GST) — $190.86 AUD, exc GST
- **Quantity discounts:** 5+ $183.23 (exc GST) · 10+ $177.50 (exc GST)

## Availability & dispatch

- Out of stock — the product page offers email notification when it returns.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE10060:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE10060:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Transform environmental monitoring with the M5Stack AirQ Environmental Monitor Kit, a comprehensive IoT solution that provides real-time tracking of essential air quality parameters. This versatile device combines high-precision sensors with cloud connectivity to deliver accurate measurements of PM2.5, CO2, VOC, temperature, and humidity, making it ideal for implementing in various settings from educational laboratories to industrial environments.

### Key Features and Technical Specifications

- Dual high-precision sensors: 
    - SEN55 for PM1.0, PM2.5, PM4, PM10, temperature, humidity, and VOC
    - SCD40 for CO2 concentration monitoring
- Powerful ESP32-based StampS3 controller with: 
    - 8MB Flash memory for robust data storage
    - Built-in 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connectivity
- 1.54-inch e-ink display (200x200 resolution) for clear data visualization
- 390mAh rechargeable battery with power management system
- Integrated RTC for scheduled wake-up and monitoring
- Multiple mounting options including LEGO-compatible holes and magnetic attachment
- Operating temperature range: 0-40°C

### How to Use

Setting up the AirQ Monitor is straightforward:

1. Initial power-on: Press the "WAKE" button or utilize RTC-triggered wake-up
2. For program downloads: Hold the G0 button before powering on, release after power-up
3. Power management: 
    - Set GPIO46 high to maintain power during operation
    - Power off by pressing RST button or setting GPIO46 low
4. Data monitoring: Access readings through the EZDATA cloud platform for remote visualization

For enhanced gas detection capabilities, consider adding the [DFRobot Analog Gas Sensor MQ5](https://core-electronics.com.au/analog-gas-sensor-mq5.html) for LPG and natural gas monitoring, or the [DFRobot Analog Gas Sensor MQ2](https://core-electronics.com.au/analog-gas-sensor-mq2.html) for broader gas detection including hydrogen and smoke.
