Cheap & Easy Remote (WiFi) Control Repeater Switch


Recommended Posts

Posted

I was using a DTMF switch that required an HT transceiver to remotely shut down my repeater.   It worked but wasn't always reliable.  One of my friends told me about an eWELink WiFi switch he uses for his garage door opener that works off a free eWelink phone app.. (both androoid & IOS).  I bought one on Amazon  along with a fused 30A relay.  All together $12 bucks.  Tested it out on the bench, works great.  I can shut down the repeater anywhere in the world and it's pretty much 100% reliable..  Just got done printing up a case to hold it all..   thought i would share for anyone looking for an easy solution..   If you want the 3D box print...  message me, i'll send it to youl.     The eWeLink switches come in a one Ch, two Ch or 4 Ch DC configurations.  i used their 'one Ch.' for this project.
