Review on πŸ”Œ YoLink Google Relay - Exceptional Compatibility by Mark Ponnusamy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Small size, big functionality!

Great new product from YoLink. I used it as a timer for our automatic chicken coop door. I just threw 4 wires from the timer to this relay. It was very easy to set up the schedule! It also seems to have a timer function. By the way, don't be surprised when you open the box, it's a tiny device! Many interesting uses for this device. It's a 5 amp relay, but if you could use something with more current you could use it to drive a different relay. just like I do with our chicken coop door. I have 2 minor problems. 1) Only double-sided adhesive tape is used for attachment. It would be nice to have a way to use a screw to hold it in place. If you ever need to remove it, you'll need to apply new tape. 2) As this is in our chicken coop with metal walls and our hub is in our store which also has metal walls, there is a little stock issue. I'm sure the walls make it harder. I just moved my hub to another location in my shop and it works fine but still goes through 2 walls.

Pros
  • Easy Installation: Literally scan and reproduce before installation. You don't have to type a letter in your app. You can even scan after installation, giving you more flexibility
Cons
  • No Instructions
