Smart Outdoor Plug YoLink 1/4 Mile Worlds Longest Range Smart Plug Work w/Alexa Google Assistant IFTTT Individual Control 2 Outlets IP44 Waterproof for Garden Watering Lighting, YoLink Hub Required

Works like a champ. I have several of these on my property which is over an acre. WiFi does not reach but yolink does.

Bought this to control outside patio lights so it had to be weather resistant, and it is. Product is very easy to install, scan bar code on product itself - not the manual or box - you are essentially up and running. Alexa integration works as well - only wish I could customize the name of each plug as there are 2, minor issue that I am sure can be addressed in future software updates.

Finally got around to putting the Christmas lights on an automatic dusk to dawn schedule!

I have a complete YoLink system. This switch works great and really like all the YoLink products.

I received a replacement and it is working flawlessly. I would give it 5 stars, but online support is a joke, email support is slow. I think this is awesome technology that could stand some development. This could be great if they invest in the software. I now own 6 yolink devices and plan to add more in the future This is supposed to operate my led lights in a remote grow room. Most of the other YoLink products have worked fine, but this outdoor plug wont stay connected. Every morning I wake up to an alarm saying its offline. Ive tried all the tricks to get it to work and it wont. Am returning for replacement and my opinion of this product may change, but for now its 2 stars

I just received the outdoor plug. I plan to use it for controlling my backyard fountain, replacing a Wi-Fi plug that has been inconsistent because of distance. I have not activated the outdoor plug yet but the construction quality is great. It looks like an industrial-grade device. Ince installed I will report. This is an addition to a number of other sensors that I recently purchased from the same seller. All are flawless. This seller provides great value. Strongly recommended.

Functionally, the YoLink Smart Outdoor Plug timer is another welcome addition to the YoLink enterprise of IOT. Designed for outside use and outside plugs, it has a short length of cabling to plug it into a protected outside outlet, allowing it to dangle below the outlet and close the outdoor outlet cover. See picture I have several older mechanical plug-in timers I cannot use outside because they will not fit inside the outdoor plug outlet cover. Each YoLink Smart Outdoor Plug has two outlets, each of which can be individually programmed with Schedules to come on and go off at separate times. Or you can ignore the scheduling portion and just use it as a 2-plug outlet addition with the YoLink Plug outlets live at all times. Programming them was intuitive, just remembering when creating a schedule, to tap the white check mark in the app, turning the check mark green, before leaving the “creating-a-Schedule” screen. The green check mark prompts a save of the newly created schedule. If you are new to the YoLink environment, remember you have to set up and establish a working hub to manage your YoLink “network”. I have 2 hubs. As YoLink advertises, they will not work on a 5 GH channel, just 2.4 GH channel. Secondly, a continuing frustration is that they absolutely will not ride on my house WiFi, but must be connected to the router or router satellite station via ethernet. Perhaps some people have succeeded with hubs being incorporated via house WiFi, but despite phone conversations and lengthy e-mails, WiFi is just not part of the YoLink solution at my house. YoLink also warns of this WiFi-less possibility. Repositioning the hub away from router without WiFi is limited by the length of the ethernet cable. The cable I got from YoLink was 3 feet. I bought the new Plug specifically to handle Holiday Lights on the house. Specific negative comments on the physical design of the Smart Outdoor Plug: 1. There are rubber plug covers so if you’re not using one plug, it can stay covered. The covers are not attached via a flap to the Plug unit. So when they come off, you have to remember where they are. I’ve already resigned to the fact that they’ll never be used again because I’ll lose them. 2 Most holiday lights come equipped with a two-prong plug which means that the ground plug hole in the YoLink Plug will not be covered. See pictures. 3. The end of the Outdoor Plug that contains the 2 plug outlets has a raised perimeter which limits the size of the plug that can be inserted into the Outdoor Plug. One of my outdoor holiday lights had a plug that was 1 inch X 1.3 inches and I was just at the limit of using it in the YoLink Plug. You can tell from the picture that the holiday light plug it is actually riding up from the YoLink Plug, so it is not flush with the unit. But just long enough to make contact and be usable. If the plug were any larger in either dimension I would not be able to plug it into the YoLink Plug.

I was having trouble setting up an automation to turn on a driveway LED flood light using the Yolink Smart Outdoor Plug with motion sensor, so I called Yolink customer service. To my surprise, they answered in two rings and were ready to help me out. Kevin stepped me through the issue (I had made a mistake on set up) and I had it up and working minutes later!

Requires their proprietary hub. Would be 5 stars if it would connect to any brand of LoRaWAN hub...

Works seamlessly with the YoLink system. Easy to use interface via. YoLink app. I used it outside in cold temperature for Christmas lights and no issues. Another great YoLink product!
