Controlling actuators from MKR WIFI 1010

Projects General Guidance
1

Hello, I am trying to control three linear actuators from my MKR WIFI 1010 board. I am also using the MKR IoT Carrier, however the current demand of the actuators exceeds the MKR IOT Carrier (24VDC, 1 AMP). I am interested in using a Bluetooth relay switch such as Shelly Pro. Another idea is the Arduino Pro Opta. Are there any relay switches out there compatible with Arduino that I can either hardwire to the MKR WIFI 1010 board or connect using Bluetooth? The actuators are 12VDC 15 AMP in total.

Thank you

I am not sure of the actuators you are using, but many have separate power and control circuits. if you use the control circuit, which could be 1 to 10 vdc, 4 to 20 ma, or a tt switch for a spring return type. You should not have to worry about controlling the high current mains for the device.
