This was a cool post: [Wayback/Archive] 433 MHz is not dead! Using an ESP32 board with LoRa module to talk to 433 MHz sensors – CNX Software

433MHz LoRa Transceiver-based ESP32 board work with regular 433 MHz sensors found on the market. This gives end users a simple off-the-shelf solution for receiving these signals without having to use a soldering iron and making a circuit.

…

This opens many doors regarding 433 MHz sensor readings with one device, including weather stations, doors, PIR, TPMS, temperature, and BBQ sensors.
