The Original BBC micro:bit V2 (Made in UK) Premium Go Set is the flagship educational and professional prototyping kit. As of 2026, it represents the gold standard for tactile coding and IoT development, featuring a complete accessory bundle for immediate deployment in schools, laboratories, and corporate R&D centers.
Long Product Description
This premium bundle features the genuine UK-manufactured BBC micro:bit V2, the most powerful version of the micro:bit to date. Driven by the Nordic nRF52833 processor, the V2 is capable of advanced tasks including AI-driven speech recognition and complex data logging. 
Unlike basic kits, this Premium Go Set is designed for durability and versatility. It includes a custom-fit silicone protective cover to shield the circuitry from static and physical damage—essential for high-traffic classroom use or field testing. The addition of high-quality alligator clip cords allows for immediate “out-of-the-box” connectivity to external sensors, motors, and conductive materials. This kit provides a seamless transition from block-based coding to professional Python and C++ development, backed by the official BBC micro:bit global support ecosystem. 
Key Features
  • Official UK Hardware: Genuine board manufactured to the highest quality standards for maximum reliability in professional environments.
  • Integrated Audio Suite: Features a built-in MEMS microphone for sound sensing and an onboard speaker for instant audio feedback.
  • AI & Machine Learning Ready: Enhanced 128KB RAM and 512KB Flash allow for the execution of basic AI models and complex data processing.
  • Enhanced Protection: Includes a premium silicone skin that protects the board while maintaining access to all pins and buttons.
  • Immediate Connectivity: Supplied with alligator clip cords, enabling users to explore circuit building without the need for soldering or breadboards.
  • Touch & Power Control: Includes a capacitive touch-sensitive logo and a dedicated hardware “Power Off” mode to preserve battery life
Usage Instructions
  1. Preparation: Fit the silicone cover over the micro:bit board, ensuring the LED matrix and buttons align with the cutouts.
  2. Coding: Access the Official MakeCode Editor or Python Editor.
  3. Connectivity: Use the alligator clips to connect the “0”, “1”, or “2” pins to external components (like an external LED or a piece of fruit for a “Banana Piano”). Connect the other end of the circuit to the GND pin.
  4. Transfer: Connect to your PC via USB. Click “Download” and drag the .hex file to the “MICROBIT” drive.
  5. Audio: Use the “Music” block category to output sound directly through the onboard speaker
Q: Why choose the "Made in UK" version over compatible versions?

The original UK version is manufactured under strict quality controls and is the version required by many government and educational tenders. It ensures 100% adherence to official specifications and is eligible for direct support from the Micro:bit Educational Foundation

Q: Is the silicone cover heat-safe?

Yes. The silicone is designed for electronic use and allows for proper heat dissipation during normal operation while protecting against static shocks from hands

Q: Can this kit be used for industrial IoT prototyping?

Yes. In 2026, many engineers use the V2 for rapid prototyping of Bluetooth 5.0 sensor arrays and voice-activated interfaces due to its powerful ARM Cortex-M4 core

Q: Does the alligator clip cord interfere with the silicone cover?

Not at all. The silicone cover is specifically designed to leave the bottom edge connector exposed, allowing alligator clips to attach securely to the notched pads

Q: Is there bulk pricing for schools or corporate training?

Yes. We offer tiered pricing for educational institutions and businesses. For official UK-made kits, please contact our authorized distribution portal for a formal quote on bulk orders

Q: What is the benefit of the V2's "Notched" edge connector?

The notches prevent alligator clips from sliding off or shorting adjacent pins, a significant improvement over the V1 design for younger students and rapid prototyping
