Greater than one weekI bought a set 2 years ago and was pleased to see how I could see the energy consumption of the devices. I moved and I could not find the box with the plugs and I bought a new set.

Happy Shopper
Greater than one weekThese mini smart outlets did EXACTLY what I got them for. Our Christmas lights operated just as they were programmed to operate. Easy to follow instructions and Definitely worth purchasing!

> 3 dayOk, at this price point I wasnt overly hopeful it was going to be a great product. I had an issue with Drone batteries. Its not good to keep them on a charger, and after a set amount of days they are programed to discharge by design. When you lose 4 of them due to sitting on a charger @ $250 bucks each.... Yes, you need to find a solution quickly. Im a first responder and we use drones in some scenarios. I need the batteries charged, but I cant leave them on the charger. Also cant allow them to die when I need them charged. So I tried this product and thought Ill just set a schedule. You can set it to turn on at a set day, and charge for however long you need. It also sends a message stating it started as well finished. I took the other one and turn my lights on and off with it (attached to google home). I have to say bang for the buck is amazing. I have seen no issue with mine. I can control on and off site. When I get an alert we need the drone, I can just manually turn on charger to top them off. And when not needed it cycles the batteries once a week making it a perfect solution. I love it ! Going to get another set for sure.

> 3 dayI purchased a two pack, one to do general energy monitoring on any appliance, and one dedicated to charging one of our cars over 110v. Conclusion: Easy to setup, works with Google and Amazon voice assistants, lots of features for the price making it a great value. I really like the hardware (5/5): + Supports 15 amps (allows for a buffer around my cars 12 amp charger) + Energy monitoring + Easy to setup and use. Plug it in, hold the only button for several seconds to put into pairing mode, short presses to turn the switch on and off. + Responsive integration into Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa - Does not remember power state. If you lose power, or unplug the device, the outlet will always default back to the off position. App is good, but could be even better (4/5): + No Subscription + Easy to integrate into Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa + Automation section allows On/Off based on a number of triggers (Sunrise/Sunset, Outside temperature, humidity, weather, another TOPGREENER device, etc.) + Has room management abilities, so I can turn off a whole room instead of just one device using voice assistants. - No random On/Off windows to mimic someone being home - Energy Monitoring only shows Instantaneous, Daily and Monthly totals. No hourly or weekly views. - No IFTTT integration yet (which opens up a lot more options) Notes: - Requires 2.4ghz Wifi - The size is big, and can cover both outlets if used on the bottom. But the product pictures should have given that away. I wouldnt subtract a star for buying exactly whats pictured.

> 3 dayI bought these specifically to load Tasmota on them and control them via Home Assistant. And, they did not disappoint! I had them up and running in Home Assistant in minutes. And, they work perfectly.

> 3 dayBought these for all our Christmas lights. So nice not to chase around plugging and unplugging all those extension cords. Liked them so much, we bought another set to use around the house. Nice to walk in a dark room and just speak, and the lights come on. Or, go to bed and just speak the lights to go off. We travel a lot, so I expect the schedule feature to be a real boon. PS these are rated to handle up to 10 amps. The feature to see the electrical demand and usage allows you to know how much you have added, and avoid an overload.

> 3 dayArrived quickly. Downloaded iPhone App, discovered plug and came on-line quickly. Alexa service could immediately control. The iPhone app works well as a remote control, too. Response time is very fast. Easy to move and re-configure, change the name, etc. I ordered as a stop gap to run a sump-pump with a faulty switch - which is why I got the heavy duty plug - and it worked exactly as I had hoped.

> 3 dayThese devices will randomly turn off. Upon research it is common and TopGreener simply tells you to reset the device. The behavior is still present after a reset. There appears to be no rhyme or reason why it is occurring, no warning that it is about to happen. I have lost power to a Harvest Right freeze dryer in the middle of a batch, had I not noticed the pump turning off I may not have checked on it in time to save the food. One has also shutdown for my freezer with over $2k of grass fed beef and free-range chicken. I have had another device just shutdown that my TV was plugged into while I was watching it. Most recently I had one shutdown that my route was plugged into while I was working remote in the middle of a conference call. I purchased these devices to track, in detail, my energy usage and what I go were a bunch of headaches. Bottom line, these products cannot be trusted at all.

> 3 dayI love this plug. Only two minor things and a suggestion. It is a bit of a pain to setup due to being only 2.4 ghz and having that smart band switching I really like the power monitoring, and something I just want to monitor power, so I would like to set the power on state. Also with power monitoring I would like to see a grouping alart for useage. But honestly, great little plug, easy to use, full of features, and a great price!

> 3 dayI highly recommend Top Greener’s TGWF115APM. I use mine for the floor lamp that sits on the opposite side of room. Before buying this outlet, I would have to get up and manually turn off the light. There have also been times where I fall asleep before turning off the light. That’s when the time schedule control comes in handy. I set it up so it turns off every night at 11pm. Installing the app was a piece of cake. The WiFi pairing process to my Amazon Alexa took less than a minute. Didn’t even have to read the instructions that were provided. Again, I would recommend this product for anyone that’s trying to “smart up” their home.
