Smaller Relay Box

Post by maineultraclassic »

Has there ever been talk of a smaller relay box?

I need like 1 or 2 more outlets, but I don't need 8.......so it would be nice if there was an optional 4 outlet box and then the full size 8 outlet box.

Just a thought.

There is the Power Control Module.
It has 8 12v ports on it so if any of your controlled equipment is 12v 500 mA or less you can move them to there and free up some ports on your main relay.

I programs, works and shows up on all devices (Portal or phones) just like an additional relay.

how do you tell which ports can be moved to the power control box? how do you tell what volt and amperage the equipment is?

It does things like dosing pumps, moonlights, and fans.

The topic of a smaller expansion box has been brought up before. I believe the problem is that it wouldn't be much cheaper to produce.
