4.2 Rating 5 Reviews
Read RF Solutions Ltd Reviews

This 4 relay wireless switching system is the perfect remote control solution to operate outdoor lighting, as well as door and gate motors, pumps and other industrial machinery.
The RIoT System offers a powerful remote light switch and wireless switch solution, allowing easy remote control of outdoor lights, from up to 20 kilometres away using LoRa spread spectrum. Using the built-in WiFi module, it can also be operated from smart device apps from anywhere in the world.
With a built-in time clock available wherever the system is deployed, this RIoT system is feature-rich for switching outdoor lighting. With automatic event timers preset by the installer, the relays can be auto configured to operate relays at preset times, as well as to dawn or dusk times that change all year round.
The 4 receiver relays are rated at 1KW, with all 4 relays able to be set to operate in ON OFF latching, press and hold momentary, by preset timers or to MOOD (specifically for lighting).
The system is available in both 868MHz and 918MHz versions, with power supply options for use in the UK & Europe, as well as in North America or Australia.
Powered from either 12-32Vdc/ac or 110/230Vac, the RIoT system is the ultimate switching solution.

I bought this to replace the Elite unit which I bought 3 or 4 years ago (and was surprised that it had failed so soon). Compared to the Elite it was overspecified for my requrements since I had no need for Wi-Fi, event timers or for the 10Km operational range and hence would have preferred another Elite. The Elite used screw terminals for connecting the mains and the individual loads whereas the RIOT uses screwless terminals which I found very unsatisfactory. The Elite switched Live, Neutral and Earth on each channel which required less internal user wiring than the NO, NC on the relay and hence was quicker and more convenient to setup. I thought it was a fully featured product but a little complex for my needs.

Good Afternoon Peter, Many thanks for your review of our RIoT System, we really appreciate your feedback. The ELITE system was a solution manufactured a few years ago for some years. The RIoT system is the successor to the ELITE; most of the basic functionality is the same, we've just added some additional functionality (such as WiFi control & event timers). While the additional features may not align with your specific requirements, we aim to provide versatility for a broad range of applications. The additional WiFi or event timer functionality can be utilised or not based on your requirements. We completely understand your comments regarding screwless terminals. This was something we added on request based on feedback from installers, however we recognize that screw terminals can be preferable for many users such as yourself. Ultimately we have tried to design a system that is suitable for a multitude of applications, however we accept there may be features that are redundant to you or features the older systems had that were more preferable to your needs. If you require just 1 or 2 channels with RF-only functionality, a solution like our HORNETPRO may be a more suitable solution for your requirements. We'd be happy to go over this system should you require another system. We're always happy to get feedback from our customers and we'll certainly make a note of these points mentioned. Thanks again for taking the time. All the best, Jamie - RF Solutions Team

Using this with a bogeyboard at the gliding club, works well over the runway length but needs resiting to improve reception. Easy to setup, staff were helpful.

Good Dar Mr Bellamy, Thank you so much for the 5 star review, very much appreciated. It's great to see a photo of the product in application. We don't get very many of these, so its good to see. We would be very much interested in doing a case study on this application if you would be willing to take part. We feel this would be a great application for other customers/ installers to see how RF Solutions products can be used. If you are interested, would you mind completing this quick form and we will be in touch - https://bit.ly/3hj98iu. Many thanks Kind Regards RF Solutions Team

We were disappointed to find that the relay outputs were not Volt free as we had expected Our engineer had to fit additional relays in our control system to provide the Volt free contacts that we needed The wiring diagram in the box indicated that there was NC Com NO contacts for each channel Good job he checked before connecting otherwise we would have had circuit boards damaged
