Yes please. Smart relay is practical to have contact without voltage. Now I use the P100 as a smart relays. It is useful for water irrigation, while you need to use swith on for sever minutes. Applications like a garage door opener is unuseful like a P100, there is not a relay with plug on the market.

Yes this would be a great idea, dry relay contacts and also dry input contacts as well so you can get feedback on certain conditions and/or use that to control other things.

I use a product from ControlbyWeb for this now, were they have all sorts of input and output modules which I use for alarms, garage door, etc.

  @Charliepsycho because not everybody likes the switch. Just adding the relay allows for users to retain their original switches, and allow for more choice of switch selection.

@Kaizoku But if what is wanted is an out-of-sight relay then who cares what it looks like? The s210 is just a wifi controlled relay with a fancy shroud on the front.

I use the s210 as as a relay all the time, to control water valves, pumps, air blowers, 12v lights, anything. Its just a battery powered relay with WiFi, it doesn't care what it switches.

Hey @Charliepsycho , indeed sounds like a possible workaround solution, never the less I personally would still rather have a simple eletrical relay.


A couple of reasons from my side:

• Quite a few other brands already offer this, not sure why such a nice solution as TAPO wouldn't
• Why use the s210 with 8.71 x 8.6 x 4.1 cm; 190 g when there could be a way smaller device with 8.8 x 3.9 x 2.4 cm; 110 g  or less (see example link bellow)
• Why the need for a battery dependant solution when the device is already relaying electricity? (see example link bellow)
