Mini Smart Plugs and Smart Outlet Extender

I purchased this unit to be installed in our TV nich. This way I could remotely power on/off outlets as the regular plug is behind the tv and shelving system. Whenever I need to power down an item I can... The only downside at least for me is, it only seems to have remote/smart abilities on half the unit. I am fortunate enough that I dont need all of the outlets to be smart.

It is a nice plug extender just be aware you need a grounded outlet where you want to put it. I didnt think of that so I had to upgrade that outlet where I was putting it. That will cost a little bit if you are not an electrician. Unfortunately, the unit keeps dropping off the network and going offline. It is practically right next to my router with only a piece of drywall between so its not a signal problem. when it is online it does work well with Alexa.but it goes offline on the daily.

works great had no issue with it.

Pros: - Easy app that works with Google assistant - Easy to set up - You can name some of the outlets so you know what you are turning on and off Cons: I would like a higher voltage one to place in the kitchen.

This plug used to work perfectly without any issues. However, lately it has been turning off randomly throughout the day/night. Ive woken up multiple times to find my phone almost dead, despite it charging as Im falling asleep. I will hear it click on and off randomly. Ive noticed the light on the plug is flashing as if its struggling to stay on.

This device plugs into the wall outlet via one normal plug and a blank plastic plug at the bottom to stabilize the device. It could use power from the second outlet or just use this as a pass through. Instead they give you three wifi switchable outlets and three non switchable (always on) outlets. All supplied by one outlet. The device can use better lighting around the power button. It was hard to see the pairing light but I was able to pair it after turning the lights in the room off to make sure I was in the right pairing mode. Minus these two hiccups (personal opinions) the device after a few months of almost daily use the smart outlet still works as stated and has never failed to operate within its stated parameters. Just dont plug in a high powered receiver as I did (forgot the wattage rating) which caused brown outs as soon as the bass hit hard at a very high volume. Which was to be expected when operating as not intended by the manufacturer.

I was very excited for it but had to return it for a surge protector. The Bluetooth surge protector was more expensive, but I needed to make sure all my items were grounded. Maybe it would be best for small items but not something you’d want to possibly lose like a cell phone.

This smart plug works great with our Alexa. I bought a few as Christmas gifts as I’ve had mine for a year and use it daily. Alexa turns on my lamps every day from 6-11 with this smart plug linked to her app. Instructions are easy to follow to download the outlet app and quickly sink to Alexa. The 3 outlets on the right side are smart plugs and the 3 outlets on the left are just regular additional outlets that are not smart plugs. When I ordered I thought all 6 were smart plugs with surge protector so planned to initially use with all our TV and gadgets so just know it’s only 3/6 that are smart. The 3 usb charging ports are great for guests to charge their phones. I haven’t had issues with having to ever reset or sync with power outages and things. It stays connected and synced whenever the power returns which is an added bonus. We’ve had smart bulbs that we’ve had to resync when unplugged or loss of power and that’s a pain.

This unit keeps tripping out without all plugs plugged in

Good product
