Lightkiwi E2683 WiFi Smart Plug for Low Voltage Landscape Lighting Transformer

Deck lighting system within a transformer box. Works perfectly!

I am disappointed. After MULTIPLE attempts I have not been get this to work. I’m disappointed since I want to be able to control the lighting when I’m not near the house. The instructions offer NO HELP!!

Worked fine for about 6 were but then kept disconnecting from wifi every night and wouldn’t turn my landscape lights off. Returning it and going back to my Internatic Digital Timer.

Works great for programming the landscape lights. I have multiple times set for different days of the week depending our Schedule. Picks up the signal from inside of the house being on the outside.

this is on my outdoor light timmer. it fits inside the box and plugs are on the side, so the lid will close...works great set all the times I want on my phone app

Easy to setup and works great..

The idea is great. The issue is the wifi connectivity is non-existent when the transformer door is closed (which it has to be or its not isolated from the elements). The moment you open the door the smart plug connects back to the wifi; however, the moment you close the door it loses connection almost instantly. Essentially makes the product useless for a low voltage landscape lighting transformer. Ended up purchasing a photocell from Lightkiwi which works flawlessly so far.

Not sure why so many negative reviews. Once you have it added to smart life app it works perfectly. Scheduling and on off switch works instantaneously without delay. Definitely recommend it and the lightkiwi low voltage transformer

I bought this because a zwave plug I attempted to use wouldnt work with the kiwi transformer door closed (gah Faraday Cage). The plug is easy enough to configure using the ehappy app. Im just disappointed I cant use an existing home hub such as smartthings. Id have to pair the app with google assistant and then to smartthings?? not at all ideal. Ill continue to work with it to see if theres a generic device adapter that would work with this wifi plug device

As many have suspected, when you put these inside the Lightkiwi transformers and close the door, the range is significantly reduced. This should really have a wire antenna that you could bring outside the transformer through a hole. I have this down by my pool, an area that has wifi, but it does not see the network with the door closed (but does with the door open). I then installed an outdoor WiFi repeater, and this device now works about 90% of the time with the door open, but sometimes the lights will flash on and off repeatedly as it gains and loses the signal. So if you can bring a wifi extender or repeater REALLY close nearby this is great. Otherwise youll want to use a timer or light sensor
