The Hook Up | Automate your Garage Door! The PERFECT First DIY Smart Home Project. @TheHookUp | Uploaded July 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Make your garage door smart with a Shelly1. This video is aimed at a beginner automater without too much confusing jargon. Thank you to PCBWay (pcbway.com) for sponsoring this video.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do NOT attempt to do this project without the 12V adapter. The Shelly will have mains voltage potential on the SW terminal and is VERY dangerous unless you use the 12V adapter. If you MUST use mains voltage please buy the shelly low voltage input/output adapter: event.2performant.com/events/click?ad_type=quicklink&aff_code=eb5faa6a7&unique=6d2ab7cb4&redirect_to=https%253A//shelly.cloud/en/products/shop/1xs1
Amazon Links - Get it fast but pay more:
Shelly1: amzn.to/3h10OR7
Reed Switch: amzn.to/38XzW1z
12 Volt Adapter: amzn.to/2ZuijDB
**The best way to determine the + and - wires on the adapter is with a voltmeter (amzn.to/2WP6jLf), but if you use the one from the link the wire with the white stripe is the NEGATIVE(-) and the wire with only writing on it is the POSITIVE(+)**
Vendor Links - Super cheap, slow shipping:
