Where to buy Multitech parts in germany/europe?

End Devices (Nodes) Hardware
1

Hi,

i wanted to follow this instruction to try out a first node, but i am having trouble to find the parts in shops to be sold to germany: https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/labs/story/getting-started-with-the-multitech-mdot

Can anyone point me in the right direction please? Maybe there is a different Node out there which is very easy to build and the parts are available in germany? Would love to have a step by step instruction (like the one above) for it.

Thank you & Cheers

Caspar

It appears Multitech dont like to sell their stuff, their distributor list is a little on the thin side. Head on over to http://multitech.com/about-us/global-locations.

It looks like EMEA headquarters are in the UK, might be worth asking them to point you at distributors in Germany. I buy mine from a UK distributor but Multitech dont seem to be producing enough devices to meet demand at present.

Regards

Andrew

@Caspar I was in contact with mike kydd mkydd@multitech.com concerning Gateways and nodes. I was able to order special TTN-Offers from him via an order form and credit card payment.
