Shelly 1 – Smart Home without new wires or holes

Tenants or homeowners who want to turn their home into a smart home are often faced with a problem: Most of the time, basic conversions are necessary. But not every product requires the laying of new cables or the drilling of large holes in the wall. For all those who want to make their four walls smart without complications, there is the Shelly 1 WLAN switch actuator.

Easy installation and setup

The powerful, smart actuator transforms any normal power outlet into an intelligent WLAN circuit. Since the Shelly is very small (40 x 36 x 17 mm), it fits into almost all standard flush-mounted sockets, and in deep sockets even behind light switches. This way, the smart switch actuator can be attached without much effort. Finally, it is set up via app using the Shelly Cloud or in the browser. Once this is done, you can also connect and control electrical appliances.

Versatile control and optional cloud functionality

The Shelly can be operated via the app, which is available free of charge for iOs and Android. In addition, the WLAN switch can be integrated into Google Home or Alexa and thus controlled by voice command.

Another special feature: users can decide whether they want to activate or deactivate the cloud functionality of the switch actuator. So if they have security concerns, they can use the Shelly without transferring data to the cloud. If the cloud option is activated, the connector can also be controlled remotely and offers a timer function.

Adjustable voltage for even more flexibility

Also in terms of excitement, the Shelly offers numerous possibilities in the smart home area. Thanks to the jumper, you can select different voltages to suit the project. If you want to change over, simply remove the Shelly from the flush-mounted box, insert it elsewhere and adjust the voltage again. In addition, the WLAN switch actuator allows smart home users to integrate it into other systems, as it is based on the open source principle.

So everyone, whether beginner or professional, can get creative with Shelly and make their home smarter – over and over again.
