November 14, 20223 yr Interested to learn more about the load shedder unit, could you share the specs?
November 14, 20223 yr That Load shedder Is the best and biggest game changer ever!! Kid you not I learnt about it 2 weeks ago... Installed 3 units already. One controls 5 socket adaptors I made to switch fridges off... When I get a gap I will explain how works Saves me running circuits when we install inverters... basically a wireless cable haha.
November 14, 20223 yr Hi all. Competition entry link will come available today. Thanks sonoff this looks great! Sincerely Jason

Extending battery uptime by reducing the load on your battery. The load shedder consists of a Sonoff mini unit that gets powered by your inverter and the relay monitors Eskom power. It automatically runs automation triggers with your preset choices. What’s in the Box 1x Genuine product box 1x Sonoff Device 1x Monitoring Device 1x Din Base Holder 1x Loadshedder Pilot Light 2x Communication cable identifiers blue 1x Wiring Diagram with instructions. 1x Full support for installers only. Features Extending battery time during load shedding Reducing battery load automatically during LoadShedding Extending battery lifetime by reducing battery cycles Reducing power consumption and demand automatically based on your requirement Automatic load recovery when power is restored with delays Simple scene trigger for LoadShedding Day time and Night time configurations Benefits Less outages due to inverter flat batteries. Saving money on battery replacement due to reducing cycles with lower loads. Load management and monitoring. Simple integration into other smart home platforms. Integration into most big brand aircon like Samsung and LG via Broadlink and IFTTT. Google and Alexa compatible. The final piece of the smart home system that monitors Eskom power feed and manages your inverter load all in eWelink. Simple yet so effective that the kids can’t even run your batteries flat with the microwave or kettle. Even the hairdryer won’t be able to draw power during load shedding unless you so chose. This unit has been field tested for over a year now across multiple site’s and we are very pleased with its success and reliability. Assembled and installed correctly the Loadshedder compliments any inverter system. It will automatically shut down pool pumps, geysers, dishwashers and any home automation devices that you deem non-critical in order to preserve battery power. No additional re-wiring of DB board is required. All appliances that need to be controlled require smart devices like Sonoff Basic or any other Sonoff products. Full integration into other smart home platforms like Smart Life, Samsung Smart Things and Top 20 brands. This is fully cross-platform designed. Edited November 15, 20223 yr by Sonoff Africa
November 14, 20223 yr It really is an awesome thing ! Basically wirelessly switch off appliances automatically when load shedding comes. This is great as if for example the washing machine is on a circuit that is essential, then you can make a box thing or I think even use the mini inside the socket to switch just that machine off automatically when loadshedinf hits. This then stops the washing machine running on inverter batteries.

November 23, 20223 yr Hi, how does the SONOFF kit integrate to an inverter with 2 batteries and 12 solar panels that are still grid tied for now?

As a start the laodshedder can then be used to wirelessly take a load off when in loadshedding so it does not use the batteries. I have installed I think 7 now on different sites when I discovered this and the clients are so happy we not chasing, digging or charging for cable just to have something off. For now it's been a great success, just hoping these in field tests don't fail and keeps grafting. I expect a minimum of 1 year working life. Hopefully more but it's technology and s#-t happens hahaha.
November 24, 20223 yr Author Hi, Sorry guys it been silly crazy trying to find a minute to answer as often as I can. The Load Shedder is a smart power detector that turns off appliances such as pool pumps, Geysers, and anything else you would like to switch off when load shedding starts. It also recover's the load when eskom power is back with delays. No additional re-wiring of DB board is required. All appliances that need to be controlled require smart devices like Sonoff Basic or any other Sonoff products. Aleks
November 26, 20223 yr No way! Almost missed the win! Thanks, this will help expand all the sonoff I already have. Ive fallen in love with the dual r3!
