The MiniR2 is a compact DIY smart switch that easily fits in small switch boxes, even behind the currently installed switch and can be used to control 220V devices such as lights, radios, fans, etc.
- An existing (traditional) switch can be connected to the Mini and can be used to switch devices on or off, in addition to the App.
- Physical button on the device.
- Timer schedules can be set to automatically switch lights on or off at certain times
- Voice control (Alexa or Google Home)
The app (eWelink) can be downloaded for free and can be used to set on / off schedules, countdown timers and to share it with family members.
The ability to connect the MiniR2 to an external rocker light switch sets it apart from other WiFi switches from Sonoff (ideal for re-using current mechanical switches).
The MINIR2, as a reinforced MINI two-way DIY smart switch, has been redesigned to increase safety and performance to optimal levels. The old version MINI has an external antenna , but the MINIR2’s antenna is hidden inside the switch. In addition, the low-current S1 and S2 connectors are gray to distinguish them from other high voltage connectors to assist with connections. 2KV surge testing meets the 1KV surge testing standard as required by CE certification and it also passed the ANATEL certification.
The MiniR2 supports 3 triggering modes, i.e. pulse mode (works with push button switches), edge mode (works with SPDT switches) and Following mode (works with switches with “ON” and “OFF” mark and sensors with dry contact output).

The Mini supports DIY mode (designed for developers) which allows users to integrate MINI into worldwide third-party open source smart home control system to achieve LAN control without cloud services, such as Home Assistant, openHAB, ioBroker, etc. For the protocol document and the code for the DIY Mode tool visit http://developers.sonoff.tech/sonoff-diy-mode-api-protocol.html
