> 3 dayUsing this smart plug, the smart hygrometer, and the hub mini all from the same brand, I was able to turn my regular air humidifier into a smart one. It now turns on and off automatically to keep the air humidity within a set range, and during a specified time.

> 3 dayWe went on vacation hoping this device would allow lights to come on at certain times. It never worked as the devices were no longer on the same wifi network as my phone. Waste of money.

> 3 dayI got the 2 pack and the 4 pack of these plugs, they are identical but you do save some money per plug if you get the 4 pack. I’ve been using them for a while and they are super easy to use and very useful. I got these because I wanted to check how much energy my water dispenser was using, I just got it but it doesn’t have an energy rating. With the current energy cost because of the high heat I didn’t want to add to much to the bill. According to this device, the dispenser will cost .80 cents per bill cycle or 2.80 with the hot option also turned on. I did a few quick tests to check the accuracy and the readings seem fairly accurate only going over by a watt, I just measured a lamp with a bulb that had a power rating and also charged my phone while using a usb power meter attached. The plugs are most likely taking their own power draw into the measurement because of the single watt difference, power measuring devices are not expensive so I’m sure these plugs are accurate. The app has a very clean and modern look to it and seems to pair with SwitchBot products very easily. I’m not sure why the app has such negativity but it’s been working perfectly for me so far, I have an iPhone 8plus. These plugs also have Bluetooth so they are even easier to pair because you get a prompt when you press the add button. The plugs are not intrusive so you can plug two on the same outlet. They have a physical button to keep them on or off. What I really like about these is that the plug will remember it’s last position incase the lights go out, some sockets will stay off if the power is interrupted. These also have a small LED light to show the status that can be turned off using the app.. These have a 15A rating which seems perfect for most devices, wall outlets also have a rating in amps and 15A is the average used indoors. These plugs are mainly smart plugs, the meter function is an extra tool. If you are trying to test devices that use more power than a microwave then a dedicated power meter will be better. I have an air compressor outside that I would love to test but I know that these plugs have their limits be they are primarily just smart switches. The only annoying thing these do is that there doesn’t seem to be an easy way to delete the history data on the app. You can restart the power counter by keeping the button on the plugs pressed for 15 seconds, this is also how you reset and rename them, but the history data will still be there. I’m not sure if deleting the app would delete the data but it should have been made easier to do. Overall these plugs are super useful, the app also lets you create Siri commands to have her power the plugs. The Bluetooth feature also allows you to connect to the plugs of the Wi-Fi is out, Bluetooth connection will be limited to its range.
