Pool automation on a budget
Super easy to install and supported by the popular Tuya/smart life apps. I have a 220v pump here in the U.S. so it takes one of these boxes per 220v pump, so I needed one for my water features, cleaner booster pump and main pump. The value for the money is when compared to the multi thousand dollars they charge for pool management systems. It has works flawlessly since installation and the grey plastic housing looks professional. Love this smart switch.

Great Inexpensive Switch. It does more than they lead on to
Got this 2 device switch because I wanted to control a 240V Pool Pump and the Lights. When I got it I was disappointed that I could only control 2 120v devices independently or 1 240 device (Assuming you are breaking both legs using both switches. The first issue I had was that it had 2 independently controlled switches.. so since the app had no feature to throw both at the same time, you’d have to set both timers to the exact same setting.. Easy to get around but stupid. Also bad marketing using the term 240V. The voltage it can control is not as relevant as the wiring configuration.I was just about to buy another single switch and use it for the 240V and keep the dual switch for my 120v lights.Change of plans and this is not “Code” but I did it anyway. Code wants you to break both legs at the same time for safety. I already have a full disconnect right next to the switch. By switching only one leg this allows me to be able to control the 240V pump on switch 1 and the lights on switch 2I wired the one leg of my 240v line and one leg of my pump together. This way only one line gets broken with the switch. Works perfectly and yet is not code because there is always a hot feeding down through the motor. I have a hard disconnect right next to my switch and the pump is 3′ from the switch. I felt it a Non Issue. The 120v lights are fed by one leg of my 240v line and I ran a separate white wire from the breaker box to the switch. Viola, full control of 2 separate and different voltage devices. A clear win for the price.In my photoRight Side – Power in 240V + WhiteBottom – Out to 240v PumpLeft -Out to Pool light

Can only connect to.it right next to it.
So after wiring it up which wasn’t bad if you know how to read a wiring diagram. I do. If you can’t you will have to hunt it down online instructions suck. Then I could not connect to it on the app. I tried 3 times. During those times it kept kicking me off my wifi and telling me I timed out. I thought something was wrong so I restarted my phone. After that I had the box 3 times and can’t find how to delete the ones I don’t need. Moving on, once I got the box that worked I was smart enough to setup the timer to kick my pool pump on and off. I can’t connect to it until I’m within 15ft of the unit. I tried assigning phone to the 2.4ghz wifi because that’s what it can only run on. While I was standing there I connected to Google home and Alexa neither of them work. I have no other complaints on how it works. It comes on when I programed it to and off. That works perfectly. Just wish I could use it how it says. I’ll update if I figure it out. For the price it’s worth it. Just aggravating not being able to do anything on the app.Update..it’s dead. No longer works.

Can now control my pool via Alexa
Nice unit at a nice price. I was stoked to find a unit that can control two seperate devices on seperare timers. Works well. I didnt quite understand how to wire this unit. The instructions wasn’t real clear. To make it easy ill explain how I wired it. I used it in 120v mode. Hot wire (black) from service panel/gfci into timer. Hot wire connects to timer. Also you use the two loops they give you to feed power from timer input slot to unit #1 input, and then onto unit #2 input. Black wire from unit #1 to output slot number #1. Same as with unit #2. White wires from feed and from both units twist together with wire nut also including a pigtail out of wire nut to connect to the neutral on the timer slot. Set up wifi connections via instructions included. Timer has been running for over a month now and not a single failure to activate or shut off at all.

Much better than mechanical timers
This was extremely easy to set up and even easier to use. Iâve had issues in the past with mechanical timers getting stuck or not working properly, but I can manage this exactly the way I want from my phone at any time. Highly recommended

Great 2 channel pump controller
Very easy to setup and install. I bought this to replace the old mechanical wheel timers when I bought a new filter pump. It was easy to wire and connected easily to the app. I use it to time my filter and cleaner pumps. Works great!

A bit disappointing but works
I had to buy this because I need a two relay system for my pump, Run and Start I had one of their other models which is way better but it only had one mode in it and had to get this one.I do not like the cheap plastic case, it will not lastI do not like the short range WiFi, I had to run it off of a different dwellingI do not like the incompatibility with US split phase power, I will have to add contactors to make it safeI like that it does what I need it to do for now

Thoughts from an electrical engineer
I’m controlling my 30amp 240V pool pump with this. This devices switches each pole separately on 2 120v contacts. I recommend buying a separate 120v Coil 240V relay to power the 240V load (pool pump).

Using this to control a dual channel outdoor lighting system at a business, Channel one does the parking lot lights, second channel does the signage lights. The key here is YOU NEED TO USE CONTACTORS, to do this. Same if you are using a high ampage pool heater on these controller. Contactors contactors contactors, must be USED!!!. The micro relays inside these units simply can not handle any more then 10 amps at 120 volts MAX. To over come this, use a 120 volt (coil) contactor, which then gives you full 15/20 amps at 120 volts or depending on contactor and circuit 20/40 amps and upwards. I’m not writing this post to turn it into a step by step and also if your puzzled by the use of a contactor on this device, you should simply refer to a electrician.Because I have a set of 8 contactors in front of this device, I’m more then able to put dozens of lights on this. And many more if need be. In fact last I counted there’s 14 breakers dedicated to the outdoor lighting system.The whole reason for this review is more in the lines of the ones saying “it almost burnt down my house”, “The lugs melted”. If this is the case, the simple answer is. YOU are pulling to much current (Amps) from the device. The weak point in this will be the relay inside (The click you hear when you press the on buttons). Most pool heaters depending on unit pull 15 amps some even 20 or more (again depending on unit) this is were the device struggles. A simple 60 dollar contactor ….. easy fix.As for the device it’s self. LOOOOOOVE it. A heck of a lot easier to program then the Intermatic astronomic 2 channel timer we had installed. At least this timer does it job, turns the lights on when programmed to do so and turns them off. Unlike the old one that was hit or miss 99 percent of the time, and that after reading the 40 page manual that came with it.Wi-Fi? I can’t confirm or denied the whole signal issue others are having. As mine is installed in the same room as the router (indoors). Maybe the manufacture could install a external antenna on it? Being in the day and age we are in Wi-Fi more so for outdoor items is really a hit and miss. You have so many factors that come into play. Interferences from power lines, your neighbor’s Wi-Fi etc. Again this might be a good time for the manufacture to think about adding 5GHZ band to this device. 2.4GHZ is just so over used now and interference prone.

I had been using a mechanical equivalent to control our exterior lights. Changing the time as days got shorter/longer was a real pain. With this we can now use a routine that turns the lights on at the right time throughout the year without having to do it by hand.

I configured this to run the pool pump and also to turn on the pool light. Easy to connect and works well!

When it worked it was great. Hooked it to pool pump and to heater. Was great to control from anywhere. Went to start up pool and blue light for wifi on but neither button responds. Iâm very familiar with electrical, this is in the chip for sure. Too bad, I did like it and if it lasted it would have been a great value.
