> 3 dayExcellent software control of devices with many features and ease of programming. Setup out of the box consists of scanning the Q code and plugging into the outlet. Every device has its own schedule and can be activated out of the schedule mode by Alexa or pressing the side button. LED light changes from red to blue indicating whether on or off. Plug configuration still allows access to the second receptacle of a duplex outlet. Clean design.

> 3 dayI first heard about YoLink products when I was shopping for a home security system that was I expensive yet effective. Thank goodness I found YoLink! After using their very easy to install products I decided to see what else they sold. Their smart plugs work great with the hub and it is so easy to set a schedule for the lights to turn on and off when I am away. I like the fact that there is a central hub... Ive used other brands smart plugs that dont require a hub; however, unfortunately newer wifi routers constantly change channels and frequencies, thereby cutting off the connection to the smart plugs, rendering them useless. I own four YoLink smart plugs as well as the siren alarm, door / window sensors, smart plug remote and motion sensor, and I am extremely happy with my purchases. I will gladly order from YoLink again and have recommended this company to my neighbors as well. Great integration, easy set up, inexpensive and, most importantly, effective! I look forward to seeing what other products YoLink has in store and would highly recommend this product..

Greater than one weekWe purchased the motion detectors and smart plugs to help us monitor my parent who has dementia. They work great, were easy to set up and easy to link with our Echo.

> 3 dayI am pleased with all my Yolink purchases. For these plugs I have them set up so they auto turn on and off. I also set them up with Alexa so I can turn them on or off with a verbal command. I plan to buy more.

> 3 dayI like these plugs and use them for multiple applications around the house and property. Theyre trivial to install and get programmed with the app for very basic control rules. The low power requirements and extremely long distances permitted with these devices make them extremely compelling. I have 8 temp sensors, 3 motion detectors, 3 plugs, and one DC relay. I will continue to use Yolink products for years to come. The reason I cant give this a fifth star is that it uses a mechanical relay (you hear the click when its turning on and off), but it cant handle an inductive load (like a power tool or heater coil). Ive never seen an adequately sized mechanical relay fail due to the type of current loading on the switch. However, my first plug died after about 8 months of use running a small (< 200 Watt) space heater. Its still connected and the LED switches from red to blue and back, but theres no power delivered. Lastly, the Yolink app needs a little help before this setup is ready for prime time. 1) It needs the programming ability to turn the plugs on and off based on two threshold criteria (to emulate hysteresis). 2) The base station needs to function without a connection to the Internet (my ISP drops my connection for hours on a regular basis and I live right outside a major metro). 3) The whole Yolink system needs better integration support for common third party automation hubs such as Google Nest, Home Assistant, and others that implement the most common backhaul protocols.

> 3 dayI was cautious to order because there were not many reviews, but I am SO glad that I did. I cannot recommend the yolink products highly enough. They are incredibly easy to setup, and work flawlessly. Setup: The only issue I had during setup was the wifi did not want to connect. I connected the hub via ethernet to the router and it connected without issue. Once it was connected, I simply disconnected from the ethernet and moved it to the location I wanted the hub and it stayed connected to the wifi. Range: They arent kidding about the range on these products! Our chicken coop is over 400ft from our house, across hills/trees/brush and I have had zero issues with connection. Customer Service: I emailed customer service with a question and received an answer within the same day. Very quick, polite, and helpful. IFTTT Integration is very easy to use and works well, though I have found that I prefer the in-app automation since it there is no delay. I am using the yolink wifi plug to turn on/off a heat lamp for new chicks in the brooder based on an alert from the yolink temp/humidity sensor. If the temp gets too high, the plug turns the lamp off - if the temp gets too low, the plug turns the lamp on. Its working very well. I have had zero issues with the app and have found that it has all the functionality that I need.
