Smart Plugs, YoLink 1/4 Mile Worlds Longest Range Smart Plug Compatible with Alexa, IFTTT 10A Smart Home Plug Mini Outlet, Remote Control Home Appliances from Anywhere, 4 Packs, YoLink Hub Included

Quick and easy install. Packaged well. No issues so far. Works as advertised. Connected to Alexa. So far so good.

PROS: These are great plugs for standard use. They have been way more reliable staying online during power cycling the router and power failures than my TP-LINK Kasa homekit ones. I’ll use these for very critical power sensitive gear. I have the Yolink ethernet hub and think that maybe the hub is why the connection is more constant. I recently changed wifi networks and passwords these stayed online without a glitch. My Kasa Homekit plugs tho, not only went offline, I could not even remove them from my app (because I didn’t know to delete them before deleting my old network), and had to start over creating a whole new Kasa account. I also lost tons and tons of automation I was using with them and Alexa. CONS This is more for hardcore automation people but as of now, these plugs do not offer as many automation capabilities as the Kasa plugs do and the Kasa plugs are cheaper! They can do some very basic ones, but oddly, they do not allow for changes in their power state to trigger automations like scene changes in the Yolink app. Oddly Kasa plugs can do this! Go figure. You have to bring everything into Alexa though, where when Alexa sees the power state changes, she will change the Yolink scene change in her app and that scene change will sync with the Yolink app scenes. If Yolink fixed this then Alexa could be cut out of the loop and these plugs could the little savior bridges between Yolink and Homekit, which I would much prefer. When they do this, I‘ll give these 5 stars and will buy a bunch more too.

First, I rarely write any reviews. So, for me to be writing one means I found something I really like. Second, I love all of the Yolink products I have purchased. They just simple work and and they are easy to install, integrate and use. I havent had one issue with any of them which is unusual for most any electronic product these days. You can tell this company really thinks their products through from beginning to end and makes them so most anyone can set them up and use them. These plugs set up easily. I just scanned the QR code into the app and boom, its done. Installed, integrated and it just came right up and started working. That simple. For real. Then I just tapped on it, set up the schedule and I was done. Now my light comes on and off when its scheduled to. If Im home and for some reason I want to turn that plug on outside of the schedule, I just tap the red LED on the side and it comes on. No issues. I will be buying more. Thank you Yolink for making things that work right and software that works right and is easy to use.

The reason I decided to try YoLink and their devices . 1) The price of the hub is very reasonable, unlike other smart hubs I have been looking at. 2) All the different smart devices that Yolink has. 3) After reading up on YoLink devices, the hub and devices are extremally easy to setup. Open the app, scan the bar code on the side of the device (in this case, the plug) and it is connect within seconds to the hub. Then a few seconds later I get notification that Alexa has found new smart device, without needing to open the Alexa app and scan for new devices. This is great, at least to me it is. Makes it much simpler. 4) YoLink had motions sensors that would works with Alexa and my other smart devices. 5) Everywhere I searched, included youtube, YoLink received very high rating. Now to the reason I decided to try (and now love) these YoLink smart plugs. The first Yolink plug: Up until lately I only used WiFi smart devices in my home. The drawback is that if you lose internet connect, NONE of your smart devices work. I purchased one of these plugs to test. Connected it to the YoLink hub, then using the app set it so that when the motion sensor in my garage or utility room sensed motion this plug would turn on a light in the utility room. This is because every time I lose internet, it is at night (and dumb me, have wifi smart switches in the utility room and garage), and I have to reset the ISP box. It works great, I walk out there and the light comes on, leave the area the plug turns off the light, with or without internet service. Great it works as everyone said it would and it was extremally easy to setup the automation via the app. The second plug purchased: I liked how the first one worked. The second one is connected to my ISP service box that needs to be reset at least once a week. (that is what my ISP keeps telling me to do when the internet goes down) I have this plug turn off the power to the IPS service box, around 4 am every morning and turn it back on ten minutes later, fully resetting it. Problem solved, no more fumbling around in the dark trying to reset my ISP service box. It works great because the hub, not the internet is controlling the smart devices. So, Yes, I highly recommend the Yolink smart plugs, hub and their other devices for the reasons stated above.

As with all YoLink products, this plug is extremely easy to setup...much easier than say competing WiFi plugs. Scan the code on the plug and it is added to your YoLink hub. After that plug it in and control from your iPhone, iPad or Android device. I am using several of these to control seasonal window candles in 12 windows. Using the app all are set as part of the same scene. Then the scene is turned on at 4PM and then turned off at 9 PM. Works perfectly!

Outrageous advertising. Range claim is simply NOT true.

Use this product to give me a heads up on my alarm status and must say it worked out great. The support and help this company provides for its customers shows their commitment to producing an outstanding product and customer satisfaction. Like to thank John in tech support for his outstanding patiences and knowledge.

Very easy to setup, virtually anyone can add to smart home via the QR code. Binds instantly to yolink hub. Separate motion detector allows for creative options for use.

Easy set up, very little latency and super long range. Works well with Alexa and you can set up your own scenes and triggers. For instance I own a acre lot and my barn in all the way on one end and my house is on the other end of the lot and I have full signal with all units. Anyways I have it set up so that as soon as I open the door the shop lights come on. I love that because the light switch is on the far end of the 24 foot barn, no more fumbling in the dark. Only draw back is the app looses its place and may show a light is on when its off and sometimes it may say cant connect but it will work after a couple tries. All and all I love it and will be purchasing more of their products

Easy and quick to set up. Reliable, long-range, easy to link with a sensor, priced very well.
