Standalone power board
#1
Could you please make a standalone power board that can be placed inside standard european outlet case like this: https://www.amazon.it/Gewiss-Contenitore...B07XZH92ZR

So that I have to wire just the power outlet, similiar to this but with 220v: https://www.amazon.it/Elegoo-Channel-Acc...06XQYFSHR/

Your board would be ok but without the fixed outlet to solder on the board itself, a Line+Neutral+Ground jack would be perfect so that I can use any outlet available.

At one point I had something like this but sold very few so stopped getting them. If I was to get more it could be 1-2 months till I have them.

The one linked above seems to work even at 220v, 5v is the power needed by the board itself.

Do you think would be usable with robo-tank ?

Yeah you can use that type of relay board, it connects directly to the DB9 on controller, 8 signals and then +5v and Ground. If you look on the controller board near the DB9 you'll see a set of solder pads marked +5v and +12v. If you solder one side of the jumper it'll send the select voltage down the shielding of the DB9. You can use a 5v or 12v relay board.

Thank you

How many board like that can I add to robo-tank ? Because wiring 12 outlet plus the board in a single box is "hard", lack of space.
Better to use multiple boxes, in example with 6 plug each (leaving some free space in the box for the board) but to do that, i need to wire multiple boards to robo-tank. can I stack them ?

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, the forum didn't send me any email. If you aren't using either DB9 you can connect one of those relay modules to each DB9 giving up to 16 outlets. Another option is using the PWM pins, you would set them up in reef-pi as an "outlet" connector and add to the equipment. If you're short on outputs you can only use 6 outputs per relay board. You can also add an additional PCA9685 module which would give you 16 more outputs.

I think you have v2, if not the GPIO's will be different.
