Automate your Garage Door! The PERFECT First DIY Smart Home Project.

Make your garage door smart with a Shelly1. This video is aimed at a beginner automater without too much confusing jargon. Thank you to PCBWay (https://www.pcbway.com/) for sponsoring this video. IMPORTANT NOTE: Do NOT attempt to do this project without the 12V adapter. The Shelly will have mains voltage potential on the SW terminal and is VERY dangerous unless you use the 12V adapter. If you MUST use mains voltage please buy the shelly low voltage input/output adapter.
