The WIFI USB Remote Controller is a compact, multi-functional smart switch module designed to add wireless control to home appliances, computers, and industrial equipment. It combines a WiFi-enabled relay with USB power input and mobile app control, providing a simple path to remote switching without complex wiring or programming.

The module operates from DC 5V via USB or external DC 7-32V power input, making it versatile for different installation environments. The onboard 10A relay provides dry contact output with Normally Open (NO), Normally Closed (NC), and Common (COM) terminals, capable of switching AC or DC loads up to 10A. This means it can directly control lamps, fans, garage doors, and other household appliances.

Setup is handled through the Tuya Smart Life app (or eWeLink app depending on variant), available for iOS and Android. The module connects to 2.4GHz WiFi and supports voice control through Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Once configured, you can control connected devices from anywhere via your phone, using voice commands, or through automation routines.

The module supports multiple operating modes including inching (momentary) and self-locking (toggle) modes, configurable through the app. Timing functions allow scheduled on/off and countdown timers. Device sharing enables multiple family members to control the same module.

The USB port power supply simplifies installation, and the compact form factor with mounting provisions makes it suitable for installation in junction boxes, equipment enclosures, and control panels. Some variants include an IP66 waterproof junction box for outdoor and harsh environment applications.

Whether you are automating a garage door, controlling landscape lighting, or remotely managing computer power, the WIFI USB Remote Controller offers a practical, cost-effective solution. It is suitable for individual users, students, and businesses purchasing in bulk for product development or educational programs.

Q: What is the WIFI USB Remote Controller used for?

It is a smart relay module for remote control of home appliances through a mobile app. It supports voice control, timing functions, and multiple operating modes.

Q: What power input does the module require?

It supports DC 5V via USB or DC 7-32V external power input, depending on the variant.

Q: Does the module support 5GHz WiFi?

No. The module only supports 2.4GHz WiFi. If your router uses a combined 2.4G/5G network, you may need to separate them in your router settings.

Q: How do I pair the module with my phone?

Download the Tuya Smart Life or eWeLink app, connect your phone to a 2.4GHz WiFi network, power on the module, and follow the app’s instructions to add a new device.

Q: What is the difference between inching and self-locking mode?

Inching (momentary): the relay activates for a set duration (default 1 second) then automatically turns off — ideal for garage doors. Self-locking (toggle): the relay stays on or off after each command.

Q: Does the module support voice control?

Yes. It supports Amazon Alexa and Google Home voice assistants.

Q: Can I control AC appliances with this module?

Yes. The relay contacts can switch loads up to 10A at 250V AC or 30V DC. Ensure proper safety precautions when working with mains voltage.

Q: Does the relay output voltage?

No. The relay provides dry contact switching only — it acts as a switch and does not output voltage. The connected device must have its own power source.

Q: What is the standby power consumption?

The board consumption is typically < 1W, with standby current around 80mA.

Q: Can I purchase in bulk for a school or company?

Yes. This module is suitable for both individual users and business purchasing, including smart home integrators, product developers, and educational institutions.
