> 3 dayThe two CMARS Smart Plugs were exactly what was needed. I was pleasantly surprised how easily they paired with the Echo Studio I was using. I had expected a little more troubleshooting than I experienced. I use one to power my home entertainment system power strip so I do not need to turn off the light, TV, and system separately. I just use a voice command on my Echo Studio. Edit: One has since broken after owning them for about two months. When it works, its great. But having such a short lifespan is concerning. The one thing still outstanding is longevity. I plan to use one for more active use of on and off than another. In theory they should be last the same amount of time but I will update if the more used one faces issues sooner than later. Edit v2: Both are now non-functioning and useless. I admit that using them in conjunction with an extension cable may have been the issue but there were no warning that I noticed that spoke against it. Be warned they may die early.

> 3 dayIve so far set up 4 of these smart outlets and it took a total of about 4 minutes. Im using these with the Hubitat C7 hub and they instantly pair as a Generic Zigbee Outlet and work perfectly. They are controllable through the Google Assistant via Hubitat (remember you must add new devices in the Hubitat Google Home app). I must say that Im using these pretty close to my hub so I couldnt tell you anything about their ability to work at a far distance, but for the price, these outlets are great.

> 3 dayMy whole house is quickly becoming automated with these smart devices, all centered around the SmartThings hub. I started by outfitting all of my light switches with ZWave specific devices. I have a number of other devices as well such as door sensors, locks, etc. I still had a few lamps around though that werent on switches, so I got these smart plugs to control those. These outlets and nice and small with a flat front. Perfect for hiding behind bookshelves. Its worth noting that these outlets use the Zigbee protocol as opposed to ZWave, but both are fully supported by SmartThings. I had no issue getting these to join my network. Simply plug it into the wall outlet, then in the SmartThings app, let it find any new devices. It came up almost instantly. If you are not a SmartThings user, supposedly you can just plug these in and have Alexa discover and control them. Ive not had a chance to try that. Once you add these to your hub, the possibilities are endless. Currently I have these lamps come on automatically at sunset each day. You could also automate turning these on when someone arrives home at night, etc. Great little devices. Not to mention the 12 months replacement/refund warranty on defective items. Would definitely purchase again when needed.

> 3 dayI got these to uses as repeaters on my ZigBee network. I am using home assistant (ZHA). The system found them quickly and joined the network. but it is not stable will only stay on the network 3-4 seconds before it drops, then it will come back and drop again. Completely unusable.

> 3 dayBecause this is a zigbee smart switch, it is very easy to add to a smartthings hub without any additional app beyond the Smartthings app. It is the easiest Ive found. Just plug it in, open up the smartthings app, and scan for new devices. Much better than wifi plugs.

> 3 dayI 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)

> 3 dayWorked great for a short time. I had these for maybe 1-2 months, which worked great. However, both stopped working at almost the exact same time. I couldnt even use the manual button to control the power. I now need to buy another one to replace it, so I am going to find one from a different brand, which will hopefully last longer.
