BN-LINK Smart Wi-Fi Plug Outlet, Remote Control by App, Compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, Weatherproof, Requires 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, ETL Listed

How the ability to set a remote timer for outside string lights on multiple schedules for weekday and weekends is great. I went back and bought other items from this company that works on the APP. LIFE Changing on how you operate items around your house.

Worked great for about 8 months, then it dims, shuts on and off at random. I liked it a lot when it worked.

No problem with WiFi/app integration. Good ability to tie 2 separate units together. Had one instance where one module didn’t respond, but since then it has functioned well. Keeping my fingers crossed since the units are only 3 weeks old and positioned in a hard to reach area. I prefer not to use this w/ Alexa.

Stopped working after two months. The device doesn’t reset either. After I wrote this review, the manufacturer reached out and send me a replacement. The replacement works! Thank you. I am upgrading my rating to 4stars

This device works really well. I use it to turn our electric fence on and off. I have it set up with Google Assistant and use voice command to turn it on and off when going out to feed animals. We also have one connected to a flood light at the barn that is also connected to voice command.

Works as described. Very easy install, literally a couple minutes, connects quickly and solidly. Must use BN Link APP to setup - I could not get to install through SMART Life App like some of my older BN Link products. App calls for linking through 2.4ghz wifi - that being said, I ignored error and linked through my 5.0ghz - no issues. Works great with Alexa - just turn on BN Link routine in Alexa App after BN Link APP and device install and everything will be auto recognized in your Alexa App.

Installation can be confusing, expect to spend a few minutes on that part. I use it with Alexa to turn on/off outdoor holiday lights and it works perfectly.

Although each outlet can be controlled individually by the Smart Life App, if you want to turn on ONE device, but not the other, manually, with out using the app, you cant. The power button top of the device powers both off...or on. So, if you have one device turned off, and one one, and you hit the power button on the outside of the device, you will be controlling both. I have a couple of other WIFI outlets like this and it is INCONVENIENT. I suggest you look for the devices that have two external power buttons. I forgot about this limitation, bought this one...but it is going back. Sorry BN-Link!

The unit says it can be synced with your smart phone. However the instructions do not match the video. When calling the listed phone support, no one answers during business hours. Chat does not respond, says if not answered wait for response on your e-mail. It says in app UNIT ONLY WORKS WITH 2,5 Gig wireless. I have Spectrum 2.5 with many items on system. App says 2.5 is shown for my router yet message says phone WiFi is 5 gig. The unit is BNLINK and app is available. However video says look for Tuya app. I register to both, neither sync with the phone. Also to sync manually there is no Smart Dimmer Plug option. Video says chose Outlet WiFi, then clicks on the first icon which is not the correct one in the app. The Alexa connection on the video is so fast I didnt go near it, having already spent an hour trying to sync this monster. I would have kept it but you cant dim the bulbs from the unit, only on and off. I bought this in Feb so it cannot be returned to Amazon. Avoid BNLINK if you value your time.
