The maker publishes this as a project, not a product listing.

Radio equipment needs certification where you live (FCC, CE, UKCA, ISED, Anatel). Some devices are uncertified or restricted in Brazil. Buyers are responsible for their local law.

Research notes

Verified via `gh api` recursive tree of Monstatek/M1 (GPL-3.0 license): repo is pure STM32CubeIDE firmware (Core/, Drivers/BSP/Components/ST25R3916/, Battery/bq27421_golden_image.h, etc.) with a HARDWARE.md that only names the MCU/flash/package - no schematic, PCB, or CAD files exist in the repo or elsewhere on the Monstatek org (only other repo is MonstaTek-Esp32-Core, also firmware). ST25R3916 and BQ27421 parts confirmed present as driver folder/file names in the tree; ST7586S/display and MCU part per HARDWARE.md and README. Direct st.com/ti.com manufacturer pages were unreachable from this sandbox for TLS reasons (TI worked, ST did not), so Mouser distributor pages are used for the ST parts.
