Remote controllers can be seen everywhere, and most of them are inseparable from a battery. However, we often encounter problems when using batteries, for instance, it can be troublesome to replace batteries, batteries are easy to corrode in a humid environment, and waste batteries may cause serious environmental pollution.
Did you know that wireless remote control can actually work without batteries?!
This self-powered wireless switch from DFRobot can send signals wirelessly without installing a battery. The switch is composed of a micro-generator and a 433Mhz radio frequency circuit. Based on the principle of electromagnetic induction, the micro generator converts the kinetic energy of the press into electrical energy that will be rectified and stored by the RF circuit later, by which a signal can be transmitted wirelessly. It is suitable as a maintenance-free switch for long-term monitoring of changes in the state of pressing, collisions, etc, such as making wireless doorbells, pagers, food ordering devices and wall switches.
A receiver is required when using this product. DFRobot recommends the Gravity: Digital Wireless Switch Receiver (433MHz), or other receivers that support EV1527 decoding format and 10Kbps decoding rate.
Important Notes
After the module is connected to the DC power supply, do not press the power push button as the generated excessive energy may damage the chip
When pressing the power generation button or using DC power, at least one of the dip switches on the module must be dialled up or the chip may be damaged
