> 3 dayI have used their products before, and this works good for what it is. Easy as any outlet change out as far as install. But what I dont like is the way that the wifi cuts off both USBs as well as the top outlet. My idea with it was to plug in a lamp at my bed side (voice controlled) but if I plug my cell phone into a USB and use the voice control to cut the lights out to go to bed, the USB (my cell phone) cuts off too. Some situations this might be a preferred method but I would rather have one USB on all the time or make the whole thing programmable, or something as simple as using a jumper in the back to change as to which ports to cut on and off with the wifi. Over all cool idea, defiantly got my gadget senses tingling, but I will in future stick to the wifi outlets you plug in line until Top Greener does something a little different with this device.

> 3 dayI have a HAN Home Area Network, and have for over ten years. Long before Google and Amazon got into the arena. I thought what great idea to have a wifi outlet for some kitchen counter appliances. I noticed all my kitchen outlets were GFCI (little red button), so called the county to asks what the code is. Outlets on a counter top shared with a sink MUST be GFCI. Good luck!

21-12-2024The ONLY proper design is ONE outlet on the BOTTOM with the ground on the BOTTOM and the USB ports all the way on the top. The VAST majority of charging bricks if plugged into the top outlet would make the USB ports in the middle difficult to use or COVER them. A brick in the bottom would again make USB ports in the middle difficult to use. And quite frankly, how many people have over $20 (without installation) to blow on EVERY one of the 20 plus outlets in their home? Oh, you are only supposed to put them in a couple of places. Well, what if your habits change? Or you figure out that you put them in the wrong place to start with? Another payment to an electrician to move them? $100 just for them to show up. Obviously, all these smart home products sell enough to make them worthwhile to produce but Ive got a dash button, dash wand, smart wall switch, a couple of smart plugs and numerous other things sitting in boxes that I just dont have time to PLAY with, because they really are just toys. How hard is it to get off your @$$ and flip a switch?

Greater than one weekWhat can I say. Its an outlet that can be controlled by wifi and lets you know how much power you use. Wish the stats were prettier and more information available. Ex: would like to see historical voltage, current in a graph or have the ability to show on a seperate webpage in realtime. Its wired into my RV for monitoring how much power my window AC uses and also alerts when the power turns off, yes it has alerts.

> 3 dayElectrician installed. Plug turns itself off regularly. Wifi app doesnt work. Without app, cannot work with Alexa. Waste of money on both the product and install. Would not recommend.
