Description
The Loadshedder Prebuilt Waterproof
The LoadShedder is a smart power detector that turns off appliances like geysers and pool pumps when load shedding starts.
The Load Shedder is a smart power detector designed to automatically deactivate appliances such as geysers and pool pumps when load shedding events occur. This user-friendly device is a prebuilt alternative to the original Loadshedder, which simplifies installation by requiring installers to connect it to the inverter and eskom feed. Please note that the Load Shedder serves as a signal device and is used to trigger other Sonoff devices, such as the Sonoff Geyser unit, through eWeLink scenes on the app. With the Load Shedder, you can effortlessly manage your energy consumption and contribute to a more efficient use of power during load shedding periods.
