CMARS Smart Plug, ZigBee Switch Mini Smart Outlet Works with ST, Alexa, Echo (4th gen) Echo Plus (2nd) Google Home, Works as a Range Extender, Hub Required （2 Pack）

I am pleased with these. In short, they just work. These were nearly plug and play. Just set your Alexa or hub to discover, insert the plug in the receptacle, and its done. I used these for Christmas lighting and they were responsive, dependable and exactly what I needed. I will order again if more are needed.

Works well with OpenHab. I would not put these anywhere a child might be able to reach them because the outer cover seems to only be held on by one tiny plastic tab which apparently breaks fairly easily when pulling the unit to remove it from an outlet. When the cover comes off the exposed copper is a very serious electrical shock hazard. Refer to attached pictures to see the one tiny broken tab and the exposed internals.

April 2021 - When I received the plugs, they were a different brand, and didnt work with SmartThings. Oddly, they came with a card that referenced to reach out to CMARS for support, but CMARS confirmed these were NOT their plugs. ---- May 2021 - CMARS offered to replace the fake plugs (branded Gosund) with the correct CMARS plugs, and apologized for the inconvenience (which was Amazons fault as the fulfiller, not CMARS). Well, the new plugs came, and they work a treat. Right out of the box, theyre as simple to set up with SmartThings as I could hope for. 30-seconds from out of the box, to controlling my lamp with ST. Definitely recommend buying from CMARS if you want good service.

I like zigbee products because it is a mesh network and it doesnt take up bandwidth from the wifi. As I build out my zigbee network it will become stronger and stronger. Soon my network will overtake my neighborhood and then the neighborhood coffeehouse. I will be the envy of this city.

Picked these up to switch on our indoor holiday lights and they perform as expected. The relay could be quieter but I cant complain for this price.

I connected these to SmartThings for some easy automation. I know the specs are posted and they are accurate but I was hoping these were a little more low profile than they actually are. So far, no issues with connectivity nor function. I would recommend these as a cheaper alternative to replacing an outlet and definitely for those that can’t wire a switch or outlet themselves.

Integrated with SmartThings. Works fine. Who cares about the audible click? Come on, it’s a switch.

They work like I expected, compatible with smart things.

These smart plugs paired easily. So I was initially happy. But one plug died in less than a month. Won’t switch on even manually.

its nice to walk into my dark home and say Alexa, turn on lights and watch the room light up. Wow the future is here LOL... Thanks again amazon.
