If you're looking for a certified connected V16 beacon , there's one factor you can't overlook: the hidden costs of connectivity . Many models on the market include connectivity until 2038.
With the Hero Driver LED , that doesn't happen. Our beacon includes Vodafone IoT connectivity with no fees until 2040. A single purchase, no fine print, no renewals, no surprises.
What exactly does it include?
- Integrated and factory-activated NB-IoT or LTE-M connectivity
- Automatic transmission to the DGT 3.0 platform
- No apps , no mobile, no manual configuration

Why is it important that there are no quotas?
Because from January 1, 2026 , the DGT will require all V16 beacons to be connected to its system in order to be able to circulate legally.
With Hero Driver LED, that doesn't happen.
