Basic R4 Wifi Smart Switch

Description

Take full control of your farm's electrical appliances with the SONOFF BASICR4 Wi-Fi Smart Switch. Upgraded with an integrated ESP32 chip, Magic Switch Mode, and enhanced thermal safety, this compact smart relay wire-connects directly to your 230V mains line. It enables remote monitoring, custom scheduling, and seamless automation from anywhere via the eWeLink app, Google Assistant, or Amazon Alexa.

Built with an auxiliary microcontroller and internal temperature sensors, the BASICR4 offers superior reliability and overheat protection—making it a dependable, budget-friendly workhorse for modernizing farm infrastructure and electrical circuits without expensive hardware overhauls.

Key Features

• ESP32 Chip Upgrade: Enhanced performance, faster pairing, and expanded wireless stability for smart farm automation.

• Magic Switch Mode: Allows you to control connected loads via the app even after turning off a traditional wall switch (when paired with a compatible switch setup).

• Automated Timers & Schedules: Set single, countdown, or recurring schedules to manage daily equipment routines hands-free.

• eWeLink-Remote Control: Acts as an eWeLink-Remote gateway, allowing local wireless control using Sonoff S-Mate modules or scene controllers without internet access.

• Advanced Overheat Safety: Built-in temperature sensor automatically cuts power if internal components exceed safe operational thresholds.

• Voice Control Integration: Fully compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for effortless voice commands.

Practical Uses in Poultry Houses & Brooder Sheds

Automating environmental controls and lighting routines in poultry housing directly improves flock welfare, feed conversion rates, and daily management efficiency:

• Automated Lighting Schedules (Photoperiod Control): Set precise morning/evening lighting timers to stimulate lay rates for layers or manage feed intake intervals for broilers without stepping into the house.

• Exhaust & Circulation Fan Control: Wire to ventilation fans to run periodic air-exchange cycles—exhausting excess ammonia and humidity while maintaining fresh air movement.

• Infrared Heating Lamp & Brooder Control: Pair with smart timers or smart scenes to turn supplementary brood heating on during cold night dips and off during warm daytime hours.

• Feed Line & Auger Timer Control: Set automated schedules to run feed augers at specific times, preventing overfeeding and ensuring fresh feed delivery.

• Waterer Anti-Freeze Heating Elements: Automatically switch on heat tapes or submersible heating cables when ambient temperatures drop toward freezing to prevent water line blockages.
