...ever produce a DIN-RLY8?

Yes I know we have the SW8's and the AO8 (that can be used at a stretch) but both these are way OTT for a simple contact closure.
My main house DIN cabinet could really do with some more dry contact relays, also I'd like some in the garage too.
4 relays on a DIN-AP4 just does not cut it Crestron.

Looks like I'm gonna have to break out another raspberry pi.

What would your hypothetical product offer over the DIN-8SW8?

* Cheaper cost
* Smaller size (than the 8SW8) - should be same size as an IO8/AO8
* Would follow same programming as the relays built into the processors. One digital to turn the relay on/off as opposed to rising discrete inputs for 8SW8
* Makes my DIN enclosures look more sexy

Take a look at Moxa controllers. They have a variety of DIN-mount, IP controlled modules with relays. Particularly interesting because they support a handful of different protocols, so there’s likely something you’re comfortable with. Inexpensive too.

Each to their own, but as Crestron DIN modules go, the DIN-8SW8-I is one of the lowest cost. You also now effectively get the (I) inputs free now too. As for the size, I appreciate the relay terminal spacing when I’m mixing 240 V a.c. mains with low voltage switching on the same module. True the switching logic is different, but it’s hardly complicated, and you get proper feedback (along with manual buttons on the unit and both manual and remote override).

While you'll have to fabricate your own DIN rail mounting the Shelly 1 is about as cheap, and small, as you can get for an IoT controllable relay. ? The Shelly 1 can be turned on/off programatically or using a contact closure.?? The free Shelly modules I've written, even provide full feedback on the relay state.

The Shelly 1 is about the size of 2 oreo cookies stacked on top of each other.? It is designed to fit in a wall box behind a light switch.? You hook the light switch up to the contact closure inputs and the relay up to the lighting load.? The light switch can then continue to switch the load on/off and it can also be fully controlled by a control system.

They are available directly from Shelly or on Amazon.?

Here is a link to the code on my Github -

Hope this helps
