Aqara Single Switch Module T1 (With Neutral) vs Shelly 2PM Gen3

The Aqara Single Switch Module T1 (With Neutral) wins this pairing on features per dollar: it is cheaper and adds a complete four-way safety suite, wider integrations, power-off memory and a Zigbee router role. The Shelly 2PM Gen3 remains the better choice if you specifically need two channels or a Wi-Fi and Matter cover controller.

Channel count and protocol. The Aqara Single Switch Module T1 (With Neutral) is a single-channel Zigbee module (hub required) with a full safety suite, whereas the Shelly 2PM Gen3 is a two-channel Wi-Fi and Matter relay with an interlock/cover mode for motorized shutters and gates. Both include energy monitoring.

Yes. The Aqara Single Switch Module T1 (With Neutral) and the Shelly 2PM Gen3 both track energy use. The Shelly measures it per channel across its two circuits, while the Aqara meters its single circuit.

The Aqara Single Switch Module T1 (With Neutral) carries a full four-way suite: overheating, overvoltage, overcurrent and overpower protection. The Shelly 2PM Gen3 does not confirm those protections in its specs.

Owners of an Aqara or Zigbee hub who want a single circuit made smart with strong safety protection, power-off memory and a device that doubles as a Zigbee repeater. It requires a neutral wire, so check your box.

Anyone needing to switch two circuits or automate a roller shutter, blind or gate from one module over Wi-Fi and Matter, with per-channel energy monitoring. It is the better fit for Apple Home, Google Home and Alexa users who want Matter rather than a Zigbee hub.
