Shelly 1 Alternative?

[Vetseun]

Seems like Shelly isn't making the plain Shelly 1 anymore. I bought a bunch last year for some garage/gate motors and lights. Looking to expand now, but out of stock everywhere.

I'm looking for something that also provides a dry contact for another gate I want to make smart.

What is everyone else buying these days?

What does "dry contacts" mean on the Shelly 1 and Shelly Plus 1?​

It means that you can connect one type of voltage for powering the device ( 12V, 24-60V DC or 110V-230V AC ) and another type of voltage for switching the load.

Thanks - I've seen the plus 1, but I've yet to find it in stock locally (and the websites that do list it show it going for double the price of the old shelly 1).

The Shelly Plus 1 was a fair bit higher then the Shelly 1 - but not double. I think maybe like 30% or so? Either way it was too expensive I think.

I believe the Shelly Mini would suit you - but we’re probably many months away from that being sold locally
