CMARS Smart Plug, ZigBee Switch Mini Smart Outlet Works with ST, Alexa, Echo (4th gen) Echo Plus (2nd) Google Home, Works as a Range Extender, Hub Required （2 Pack）

A simple well-built plug that does what it meant it. Set up was very easy and I was able to use this with my hue hub and my hue wall switch to control my hue lights and the plug altogether. Recommend this plug for anyone that uses Hue lights and wants to integrate non hue products into your smart home system.

These smart plugs paired easily. So I was initially happy. But one plug died in less than a month. Won’t switch on even manually.

I run OpenHAB on a Raspbery PI 3, with a HUSBZB-1 USB Hub as controller. I could connect the plugs with no issue.

Great buy. They are easy to integrate with Home Assistant (ZHA - ConBee II) and they act as Zigbee repeaters. I am using them to replace the TPLink Kasa ones that require Wifi to work! Zigbee is so much better! They pair instantly, they switch on and off instantly (no internet lag) and they still work when internet is down. Plastic quality seems good but I still do not know about the life of this product. I will update the review after about a year. Also the do not report consumption, like the TPLink ones.

For smart home I am not usually a fan of Zigbee products as 2.4 Ghz interferes with them, but if you have these near your hub they work fine. They are also quite small which makes them even better, and compared to Z-wave they are quite inexpensive.

I bought a slew of these for some home automation tasks about 9 months ago, and they are starting to die off, one by one, a few days in between. They start to reset once every 10 minutes to a few hours, then they just go dead. Bummer.

I bought a pair of these. Im using one of them as a Zigbee bridge to reach devices far from hub. The other is being used as an outlet. Im using them on Hubitat, and they were discovered immediately; I didnt even have to press the button. Nice!

I have about 50 devices connected to ST hub, so I am not new to pairing devices. The instruction is app tells you to hold button until you see red flashing light. Well in my case this didnt happen for both plugs. It would reset /purple/blue and it goes to solid blue. Somehow i was able to pair it after several tries. Now it is working fine , but I wont order similar type of plugs again ( there are several of them here on Amazon under different brands)

I am pleased with these. In short, they just work. These were nearly plug and play. Just set your Alexa or hub to discover, insert the plug in the receptacle, and its done. I used these for Christmas lighting and they were responsive, dependable and exactly what I needed. I will order again if more are needed.

These 2 plugs were my first zigbee devices on my Hubitat system. I only had z-wave devices, before these. My house is small, and I didnt have any trouble with my in-wall z-wave switches and plug-in outlets communicating at full strength with my hub. When I got these two new outlets, I plugged them into a socket next to my hub and included them very easily. Unfortunately, when I moved them them down the hall to the locations I wanted to use them, they wouldnt connect--with a continual sending message. They were only about 30-35 feet from the hub, but with a couple of interior walls in the way. I found that if I put one of the outlets in the hall about 18-20 feet away, then I could reach the other at the desired 35 foot location, but if I unplugged the hallway outlet, then I stopped communicating with the endpoint 35 feet away. This really limits the usefulness of these plugs, and I cant recommend them. At best, its like I bought 2 devices, but only got one and lost a hallway plug.
