Hi sorry to mither you all,
I want to do use a sonoff mini r2 in my bathroom so it can work with my bathroom extractor fan through automation. The fan is a Manrose MF100 Mixflow inline fan (without timer) L and N only.
I want to automate the temperature and humidity sensor in the bathroom to turn the fan on when humidity is high and so on then turn it off when it has reduced to an acceptable automated preference. I will be able to programme/ switch on and off/ creates scenes for the fan from my phone. I will also use a remote wireless switch which will work with the sonoff mini r2 in the loft which can turn the fan on and off (saves having a wired switch)
However i only have 1 1way gang switch which controls the bathroom light. In order to do this, will I have to spur a loop out from the current bathroom ceiling rose circuit as if I want to put another light in another room. This will be a new circuit which I will use for the fan and not mess with bathroom light. (Should this be done or is it unnecessary?)
If I do decide to use the same circuit, do I just use the Loop Live and Loop Neutral? But fans without timer are meant to use switched Live and Neutral.
Do I need a fan with a Timer which will have a terminal for permanent live cable even if I will not be using the timer option?
I will also be using an isolation switch by the way
Do I need Permeant Live or Switched Live? I ask this as I need the sonoff mini r2 to have power
Thanks all in advance and thanks for taking your time for looking at this.
