Shelly 1 Mini Gen 3 | WiFi & Bluetooth Smart Switch Relay 1 Channel 8A | Home Automation | Compatible with Alexa and Google Home | iOS Android App | No Hub Required | Dry Contacts (Pack of 2)

I have an extractor fan switch that I use to switch off the fan at night, due to noise. I wired this in and now I have a schedule setup to not let the fan come on at night. It’s small and easy to setup in the webpage and then the app, plus it looks like it does loads of other cool stuff.

... but I got so much more. Frustrated with the normal light timers limited timing features, I turned to one of these Shelly Mini G3 smart switches. It works great and has the timing feature of an individual offset from dawn that was missing from the non-smart timer switches. The manual is bit overwhelming, and it was missing the specific "wiring plan" I needed. Searching the web I didn't easily find the answer. A deep dive into a manual for one of their other products and I found the answer. The wiring I needed was two momentary switches connected directly to the device. While it describes one, it's not clear on how to add more. It's pretty simple, put them in parallel. But this should have been easier to find. I wasn't interested in cloud support and was a little worried I would be required to use it. Again, a detail that is hard to get clarity from any manuals. It's not required or needed for local access only. Once installed, I used the AP feature (Wi-Fi directly to the device, open a web browser). This allowed me to finish the setup and configure the timers all I wanted. It's nice its exposed Web UI did everything I wanted. I continued and joined it my house Wi-Fi and have it automatically set time from the google time services. Then I could access its exposed web interface with directly connecting to the device, just my Wi-Fi; and had it automatically updated its firmware. It did come with firmware that was a version behind. Not really a requirement, but I checked out their Shelly app on my Android phone. It worked great. There are a lot of bad reviews that were recent, so I was worried. I think the complexity of rooms and how to add devices was throwing these people off, but the model clicked with me, and I thought it was very functional and stabile. So, I then ordered three smart outlets to add to the mix; and I am happy. Makes remote control and management of timers all in one UI rather than each units Web UI. There are many other features I haven't even delved into yet, like actions. If the App quits being supported, I can always go back to the fully functional Web UI on each unit.

Great product, many functions, just could do with a little better wifi range.

Der Shelly 1 Mini Gen3 ist ein klasse Smart-Schalter in kompakter Größe. Die Einrichtung per WLAN geht schnell und unkompliziert, und die HomeKit-Integration funktioniert problemlos – ideal, um klassische Lichtschalter smart zu machen. Besonders praktisch finde ich, dass das Gerät ohne zusätzliche Bridge auskommt und trotzdem zuverlässig arbeitet. Die kompakte Bauform passt gut in Unterputzdosen, und die Verarbeitung wirkt hochwertig. Auch die Möglichkeit, alternative Firmwares (z. B. zum Flashen) zu nutzen, gibt zusätzliche Flexibilität für fortgeschrittene Nutzer. Die Steuerung über die App läuft stabil und verzögerungsfrei, und auch Sprachsteuerung (z. B. Siri) ist reibungslos möglich. Für alle, die smarte Steuerung einfach nachrüsten möchten, ist der Shelly 1 Mini Gen3 eine ausgezeichnete Wahl. Kann ich klar empfehlen!

Relé inalámbrico de gran calidad. Lo he utilizado para automatizar el aviso del timbre de casa a través de Alexa y también para controlar equipos antiguos que no son inteligentes, como aires acondicionados. Su tamaño compacto permite instalarlo en espacios reducidos, y su integración con Alexa facilita la automatización de dispositivos no conectados previamente. Es una solución eficaz y versátil para mejorar la inteligencia en el hogar.
