Smart Outlet in-Wall, Standard Electrical Outlet, Wireless App Work with Alexa Google Home ETL FCC Certified 2.4G WiFi with Screws 4 Pack

What a cool concept, an outlet that you can monitor and turn on and off. This is not a knock on the outlet at all, but the one thing that it’s missing is a surge-protector. All of the devices that I really want to connect to this outlet require surge protectors, and having a bulky protector on the wall or on the floor in front of this outlet ruins its cool and sleek design.Installation is pretty basic. Make sure you’ve turned off the power, and then just connect the hot and neutral leads, and don’t forget to ground it as well. Although it looks like the terminals are quick-connect, they’re not. They’re a strange combination of quick-connect-like receptacle, coupled with a screw-pressure-plate tightening system. As you can see in the photo, there are two receptacles for both hot and neutral so you can use this outlet in pass-through situations.Once connected, I know that the instructions want you to download and create an account on some proprietary software, but I was able to connect it to my Smart Life app. Just go to add new device and select outlet. If you’ve already filled-in all of your information it’s pretty automatic from that point. You can then rename the whole outlet and each individual plug, save for the USB which work as a pair. The one thing I can’t do from the Smart Life app (and perhaps it is possible from their app), is turn off the WiFi indicator light on the front of the outlet. Not a deal-breaker for me, but it could be annoying depending on its location.

I bought 1 in July of last year. By the end of the year, it didn't work anymore. Although the charge function could turn on and off, neither outlet could be made to work. Company apparently not interested in replacing it.

I installed smart outlets throughout my home, and it's great to ask Google assistant to do things for you, set scenes, etc. The usb ports are a bonus as well, but now I don't know what to do with the 2 usb hubs I bought! :-) That's a good problem. I especially like the fact that I can turn off outlets when I'm not using them and thus reduce my energy consumption. I like that (in theory) the outlets that control my AC units can be turned on and off for temperature adjustment prior to returning home. This quasi home automation is great, but it got me thinking about motion sensors because having to have a Nest (which I do not) or other smart home hub OR having my phone on me when I need a light on, is 25% annoying.I have a remote controlled light in my bed room linked to my smart outlet and have it programmed to turn on when my alarm goes off in the morning (because it's usually still dark out). After Google assistant greets me, tells me the weather and what's on my agenda, I have it programmed to turn off my bedroom light. Thing is, the switch doesn't turn off *the light* it turns off *the outlet* which means that if Google shuts down the outlet, the remote cannot turn the light on.However, if Google has the outlet on, the remote can turn the light off and on. BUT if initially google has the outlet on and you use the remote to turn the light off, Google cannot turn the light back on. Requires some planning if there's no other light in the room.

I hit on this unlikely brand when I needed a smart double outlet - it was like the only one I found, zwave or wifi (most/all single outlet). The outlet is state of the art, electrically and electronically, and works great across platforms (more below), but it has a couple design/ installation issues that I knocked one star off for. However, if I had it to do again, I would definitely choose this receptacle!First the design/ install Cons -- the outlet is very deep (and very cubic) so, in my case, I ended up having to install a new 2" deep box (minimum depth.) It has a lot of smarts packed in there, and it takes space!- the TamperResistant outlet slots are The Most Annoying I have ever had to plug into, even after repeated in/outs. The good news is, if you're using a polarized plug, they will slide right in. If you're using a grounded cord, which do not have polarized plugs, you will struggle... This could be a little less finicky (and a little less safe-from-ourselves lol)The Pros are way better!- high quality construction of the receptacle - and face plate!-very clear, printed color instruction booklet in perfect English- uses the new wire connections that are easy, safe and cannot come loose.- Installs under SmartLife (and I'm sure Tuya), in addition to their own app, if you use that already.- takes a smidge less than one second to add into SL - instant! Just confirm wifi password and name it!-I use SmartThings as a hub, and SmartLife is a Linked Service to ST, and this receptacle pulled over into ST by the time I had that app open!- this means, zwave or wifi, all these linked devices are seamlessly interoperable for automations and scenes!- cool blue glow wifi button right on the front middle of the switch lets you turn it on/ off manually super easy.- under SL (and I'm sure Tuya and their own app) there's one button on top to control both outlets, and in the device you can control either outlet independently. You can also create automations for both or either outlet. (It installs as like 3 separate outlets, not confusing. )For just what I needed, very well designed electronically - smart! - 5+ stars!! For some annoying physical inconvenience, 4- stars. If you're forewarned about that at least you won't be badly surprised.

Opera sin titubeos

Funcionó correctamente. Pude utilizarlo con la aplicación de Lumary desde mi celphone. Solo me gustaría ver un tutorial para poder configurar diferentes horarios de encendido apagado con la misma aplicación. No se hasta cuantos ciclos de encendido apagado se puedan programar.
