Description

The Shelly 2L Gen3 is engineered to control two independent lighting circuits at the same time, operating across two channels without the need for a neutral wire which makes it compatible with a wide variety of smart lighting setups. Its compact design allows it to be easily installed into standard electrical boxes, supporting loads of up to 200W on output 1 and 700W on output 2. The package also includes a Shelly Bypass for 1L/2L systems; when connected in parallel with the load on output 1, it eliminates the need for a minimum load requirement.

Unlike many smart lighting relays, the SHELLY‑2L‑GEN3 doesn’t rely on a dedicated hub or controller. Instead, it connects directly via Bluetooth or 2.4GHz WiFi. You can operate it through the free Shelly app, use it within automated scenes and schedules involving other Shelly devices, or take advantage of advanced features such as scripting, HTTPS, MQTTS, inbound and outbound WebSockets, and KNXnet integration.

  • Built-in WiFi; no hub required
