MAINSLINK 5 km Original Switched Live Cable Replacement Solution Reviews

4.8 Rating 93 Reviews

MAINSLINK is the original 5 km switched live cable replacement solution: a 230Vac wireless mains-to-mains remote control system for runs where cabling is awkward or costly. The supplied transmitter and receiver are already paired, so the system is ready to install with no setup required.
This 230V wireless link provides up to 5 km range in open line-of-sight conditions. Rugged IP68 enclosures make it suitable for outdoor use, while UK manufacturing supports durable, reliable performance.
Use MAINSLINK for switched live control, cable replacement and thermostat integration. It is also suited to lighting control and boiler pump overrun applications where a wireless link can replace a difficult cable route.
The complete system includes both the MAINSLINK-TX transmitter and MAINSLINK-RX receiver. App control can be added to the setup with the RIOT-HUB8.

“We had an issue with our boiler and we were advised it was due to the fact we had no cable to provide the pump to override the on/off switch on the system. We had the option of running many metres of cable and ripping up floor boards, or use a wireless connection. We spoke to Worcester Bosch and they recommend this product, fitted in an hour and works great”

“As we are a Plumbing & Heating company we arranged a local electrician to fit the wireless main to mains link and he commented on what a good bit of kit it was and its working faultlessly. To be fair the distance needed wasn't great but the route to fit a cable was going to be complicated. Will certainly use again.”

“These things are a god send! We have done several jobs lately with swimming pool wiring and need a switch to the boiler . These have saved literally days of unnecessary labour and disruption. The quality is great and they have never let us down. One of them was required to send a signal several hundred meters through a property and under a pool and worked seamlessly .”

“Used to switch on driveway lights using a PIR at a distance of 150m and using a different mains supply to power the PIR and mainslink Tx. Build quality is excellent and is simple to install and works flawlessly. Highly recommend.”

Good Day Mr Jones, Many thanks for your positive review, its great to hear that you have used these a number of times and they have worked all well. It would be fantastic if you could send us across an image of the Mainslink's in the applications you have used and it would be great to do a case study and put this on our website. Many Thanks RF Solutions Team

“Absolutely brilliant bit of kit - not using for its intended purpose but its save me digging up and laying 300 mt of gravel/ grass/tarmac to provide a low voltage link for a telemetry unit. Only slight change I would suggest is the make the Rx relay change over and Isolated - easy enough to get over using an additional relay but it would make it a lot more versatile. My only other choice was another telemetry unit costing £996 so well worth the cost.”

“Simply genius, I think of things like this all the time but don’t know where to go with it so carry on with traditional ways until one day a product arrives. Customer was well chuffed, the house is still in one piece, no cable runs. Will use again”
