The Adafruit Power Relay FeatherWing lets you switch high-power loads — lamps, fans, solenoids, small appliances, and more — directly from any Feather microcontroller board. With a switching capacity of up to 10A at 120 VAC or 5A at 240 VAC (resistive loads), it can handle up to 1,200 watts.

The non-latching relay is controlled by a single GPIO pin, configurable via a solder jumper on the underside of the board. Simply stack it onto your Feather using headers and you have a compact, powerful switching solution for home automation, industrial control, or any project that needs to toggle mains-powered devices.

Key Features

  • Non-Latching Relay – Single GPIO pin control; relay returns to off when power is removed
  • High Switching Capacity – 10A at 120 VAC, 5A at 240 VAC (resistive loads); approximately half for inductive loads
  • Up to 1,200 Watts – Handle computers, TVs, fans, lamps, and small appliances
  • Configurable Control Pin – Solder jumper on the underside lets you select which GPIO drives the relay
  • Feather Form Factor – Stacks onto any Adafruit Feather board
  • Screw Terminal Output – Secure connections for the switched load

Ideal For

  • Home automation — switching lights, fans, and appliances
  • IoT-controlled power switching with WiFi or BLE Feathers
  • Solenoid and motor control
  • Timed power switching and scheduling projects
