 +====== Wireless Module  for MaxxFan  (G6K-2P relays) ====== 
 +
 +This module uses G6K-2**P** relays - and its design is inspired by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aS3BiYaEfiw&ab_channel=Everlanders|Everlanders Automation projects (video)]] ([[https://everlanders.com/2020/04/06/automation-arduino-and-blynk/|Project Home page]]), where a Wemos D1 min wireless remote control option is added to the MaxxFan in the Everlander rig. 
 +
 +In their project G6L-1P relays are used, but they seem to be more expensive than G6K-2P relays, so this PCB is designed for G6K-2P 5V relays. 
 +
 +(See this [[esp8266-d1-mini-maxxfan-b|MaxxFan Module B page]] if you want to use G6L-1P relays).

 +//Notes about un-knowns://   
 +  
 +   * I do not know if the numbering (1-8) is similar to the actual MaxxFan. This needs verification.
 +
 +Use the PCB viewer if you would like to see/test the entire copper path as it switches sides and/or connects to several solder points.
