It's the relay hiding it 😅

Look see look see in the Itead.

Many interesting component. Specially those 5-24v wifi and switching.

I m designing a solar battery protected circuit project. After last few week bad weather drain my battery alarming low.

But so far can't find any usefull component in the Itead. This similar https://www.itead.cc/smart-home/sonoff-sv.html as your wan is quite interesting.

Is this Sonoff safe? Because the fella in the SuperHouse YouTube channel says it's not approved by their local regulations.

angmoh countries got a lot of building codes

It is not easy to apply those cert. Like sirim.

If they have such label, that device is not cheap already.

Sonoff is already supported by Alexa FYI. I m getting a few sets once my house is ready for reno.

BTW for those who wanted alternative to Phillips Hue, you can get Yeelight. I got mine working directly with Alexa without the bridge.

ozak btw the Sonoff uses Cloud but it once you set it, if your Internet down, and you already set the schedule, it will continue to follow the set schedule cause all the timing is inside Sonoff.

You just cant use your smartphone to trigger it

No more cloud cloud memory?

So the setting is inside the unit already. that is good.

Rely on cloud, is not going to be good. better do what the Superhouse did, refresh to own firmware

just buy the RF version if you sked of Cloud - https://www.itead.cc/wireless-4-buttons-pus...controller.html

Looking for 2CH. But it only have 1 CH.

Wah nice
What name does it show up as after alexa scans for new devices?
How many bulbs do you have installed

It shows the name you put in yeelight app. You need to install Alexa module in Alexa app. I bought 4 lights only setup two.

I am getting so lazy after installing all these stuff.

Broadlink still haven't setup with my Alexa yet. Need get a bridge for the tasker to work, dunno which Android tablet or tvbox is have good reliability.

Better get tvbox since it doesn't rely on battery, any cheap one will do since only need it as bridge.
Or just use any old android phones and install broadlink rm plugin.
I'm just waiting for confirmation other devices that's setup using ewelink can be controlled with alexa (tantech switch)

https://www.itead.cc/wiki/EWeLink_Introduction

I was gonna grab rf wall switch but I'm holding it off for the moment since remote button sends both on/off commands.
I was expecting similar to rf fans where you have discrete button for turning fan on or off.

Have they released ewelink plugin on the alexa app?

I guess their app haven't approved by amazon yet, but here is the demo video.

oh crap! does this means I need new Sonoff hardware for Alexa to work? Or do I just need a firmware upgrade?

Aiya why so susah.

Just call your wife and she will do it for you.

Saw that weeks back, hopefully comes out soon since they did say it'll be out after cny.
Btw, if add device in alexa group, can skip 'tell ewelink to turn on/off device' and just say 'turn on/off device' right?
Or need to wait for future update like logitech harmony app?
