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）

I have over 50 of these controlling my house, shop, greenhouse, high tunnel and garage. But why did they make the so big that they take up over half of the outlet.

This plug is abnormally large, and blocks other plugs from being used in some cases. You cant use two in a top/bottom configuration. This is an intentionally bad design.

Works well with OpenHab. I would not put these anywhere a child might be able to reach them because the outer cover seems to only be held on by one tiny plastic tab which apparently breaks fairly easily when pulling the unit to remove it from an outlet. When the cover comes off the exposed copper is a very serious electrical shock hazard. Refer to attached pictures to see the one tiny broken tab and the exposed internals.

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.

Good-looking product, but my Alexus hub isnt new enough to be able to recognize these plugs.

Im using them with Home Assistant with a GoControl CECOMINOD016164 HUSBZB-1 USB Hub, and the connection is good and reliable. These plugs are controlling lamps around my house.

These work with hubitat automatically no special requirements, these are only rated for 10 amps so dont connect them to any high current devices and youll be good, will update if these fail prematurely or give me connection issues going forward, also going to be hacking one to make a pc control switch.

I was ripped off. This package says it works with Amazon Alexa and Smartthings. We have both in our home and nothing recognizes the plug. There is no brand on the box. When I contacted support Cia the email on a 1 inch slip of paper in the box, what do you know? It is an invalid email. Made in China garbage. Infuriates me that amazon allows these types of businesses to market through them.

I tried multiple times to get the plugs to connect to Smartthings with no luck. Multiple power cycles and resets and different suggestions online. Just wouldnt work. When I tried it with my Hue bridge they finally worked. But Id much rather have them connected directly through Smartthings.

I’m a HomeSeer user and these modules are extremely dependent and well made. I replaced my Insteon modules with these and what a difference! No signal loss in my 3500 sq. ft. home. The Insteon modules became brittle over time and the cover easy separated from the backplate leaving the backplate still in the ac socket. Time will tell how these modules stand up, but I’m very impressed so far. Highly recommend!
