Shelly 2L Gen 3
Shelly 2L Gen3 is a powerful two-channel smart switch built for advanced lighting control—even in installations without a neutral wire. Perfect for retrofit projects, it works with the Shelly Bypass for 1L/2L (recommended for Output 1) to manage low-wattage loads.
It features independent control of two outputs, with support for loads up to 200W on Output 1 and 700W on Output 2. With built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, there’s no need for a hub—just connect and control from the Shelly Smart Control app, voice assistants, or your preferred automation platform.
The 2L Gen3 also functions as a Wi-Fi repeater and Bluetooth gateway, enhancing your network coverage. KNXnet/IP compatibility and local scripting support make it ideal for both smart homes and professional automation projects.
