Hey everyone, I hope you’re all doing well! I wanted to share a solution I came up with for integrating a GSM relay with a current shock relay. I’ve been working on this project for a while and thought it might be helpful for others facing similar challenges.
So, the issue I was dealing with was that my GSM relay only had NO/COM/NC outputs, which meant it could only function as a permanent switch. However, my current shock relay required two inputs, each controlled by a separate switch. My initial idea was to use a Shelly Uni device to bridge the gap. I configured one input on the Shelly as NO from the GSM relay and the other as NC, effectively creating an inverted switch. Then, I connected both outputs to the current shock relay’s inputs and set a one-second auto-off in the settings. It worked like a charm!
I was a bit worried that this setup might be too complicated or that there might be a simpler solution, but after some research and testing, this seemed to be the most reliable method. I also considered using a switch-to-button converter, but I couldn’t find one that fit my specific needs. The Shelly approach turned out to be both effective and straightforward.
If anyone has alternative solutions or tips, I’d love to hear them! It’s always great to learn from the community. Thanks for reading, and happy tinkering!
