> 3 dayI got this power strip for my smart garage project. Installed it in a locked cabinet by my work bench, ran the cable out the cabinet and to the outlet. I have it setup using the Tuya app, and it works perfect every time. I have my table saw, shop vac, grind wheel, and air compressor plugged into this unit, that I control from a spare tablet I mounted on the wall. So now my kids wont be out playing with my tools and lose a finger. Highly recommend this unit.

> 3 dayWifi signal stopped working after a power outage I had this morning. Up to that point, it was fine except for the occasional popping sound like when you turn on or off individual outlets. I couldn’t get it to reset no matter what I did. Followed every step in the book and searched online for help. Garbage. Every other device in my house can take a power blip just fine but not this one after only 6 months? I don’t even want the warranty coverage and should have read the reviews before throwing $20 away on this one. I bought a KASA and will see how that goes.

> 3 dayThis only just recently started messing up on me. its still supplies power but the smart functions seem to have completely gone away. I cant reset it or get it on my network or anything. I contacted geeni and they sent me a replacement though so that was nice. Other than that, I really like these power strips. You can control each individual outlet on them or the whole thing. Works really well through Alexa.

> 3 dayThis power strip has a major design flaw. If you unplug it or lose power, the Wifi will stop working and make the strip useless. There isn’t even a way to make the outlets turn on manually. Customer service is also slow to respond to warranty replacements. The 1st unit was eventually replaced free of charge, but that one broke the same way the first one did. It has been a week and customer service still hasn’t responded to my inquiry about a refund (no need for another replacement, this is useless if it keeps breaking after power loss). Glad I was home when both instances happened, otherwise my fish would be dead… I ordered another strip and tested it for the same flaw: works perfectly. Don’t waste your time with Geeni. Spend a few more bucks and get a reputable brand.

> 3 dayThe ability to schedule when it turns on and off in areas of the house when I no longer use them helps control my energy bill.

> 3 daySo you can turn the whole strip on and off or ..... you can turn each outlet on and off individually. Im using mine with an aquarium with several lights plugged in. With Google Home I can turn on a light at sunset and then turn on the brighter lights and hour later. In reverse, I can turn off the bright lights at midnight and then the smaller light fifteen minutes later. Much better for the fish. On gloomy days I can just say Hey Google - turn on outlet one and the small light comes on. Such granular control. So many things you can do with a device like this.

> 3 dayI have this for my decorative lights in my living room and it switches on and off randomly. I have no timers set and don’t touch it. Seems like it’s every couple hours. I wouldn’t buy if you’re using this for lights or anything that need to be on for long periods. I wanted this for my decorative lights and eventually Christmas tree - but having it switch on and off all the time is horrible.

> 3 dayI used it for a couple years. I had issues with it turning on and off randomly every now and again. One day it turned off randomly and it hasnt worked since.
