Kasa Outdoor Smart Plug, Smart Home Wi-Fi Outlet with 2 Sockets, IP64 Weather Resistance, Compatible with Alexa, Google Home & IFTTT, No Hub Required, ETL Certified(EP40), Black

Works great and the area its in has weak signal

Finally I don’t have to go out in the middle of a freezing night because I forgot to turn off the decoration lights or left them running till the next day because I was too lazy or forgotten it was on. Works great. And the heavy rain this winter did no damage to it either.

We use this to plug in two string light strands in our backyard. Works seamlessly through Alexa for voice command to turn them on and off. Could also place on a schedule if you wanted. It is outside permanently, so we wrapped the plugs in electrical tape just for extra protection and to keep them plugged in with tension on the line. Have never needed to mess with it since the install. Going to buy another one this year for Xmas lights.

The best HomeKit (HK) compatible outdoor plug IMO. Why? You can control both sockets independent of one another in HK/Kasa! I have not come across another HK compatible plug that does this. Quality seems generally adequate and on par with most plugs on the market. Deducting a star for some initial pairing issues with HK--had to power reset one while the other paired immediately. No worries--worked after the 3rd try. Additionally, the socket covers are REALLY soft and flimsy. Not a deal breaker if these are in a covered enviorment but I wouldnt expect them to last long especially if exposed to direct sun for long periods. Overall, there are few HK choices so I consider this the best! Highly recommended--once up and going these work perfectly to power our holiday lights.

I purchased two of these to control my holiday lighting after years of continuous adjustments of dusk/dawn/timer activated controls. One of my outlets is in my external entryway and the other on a external wall. It is very easy for me to use the Kasa app to control my lighting, and was a piece of mind to make it look like I was home while turning them on from anywhere. I was unsuccessful at setting up a routine with Alexa but that could just be me. I honestly didnt spend a lot of time trying to figure it out after setting up groups, routines, etc. and giving up after the lights didnt come on by themselves for a few days. I just set a calendar reminder on my phone. It was also nice to be able to turn them on before I came home with guests for the holidays and surprise them!

Super easy to set up. The app could be a little better, but once you mess around with it a bit its simple. I havent tried the Alexa Integration yet. Im using it mostly for an outdoor light timer so that feature wasnt important to me. The build quality and materials are solid. All the seams lined up well, no gaps and the electrical core junction, plug and casing are well sealed and up to the task for an outdoor installation. The plug covers could be a bit more substantial, but since I have both plugs occupied full time, thats not important to me. I was impressed with the strength of the signal reception. I was able to install this inside a metal exterior wiring box for a nice clean look and still have a perfectly strong signal.

I really like the kasa brand. Its made my TP-Link and I have their deco mesh routers, kasa smart plugs and switches. Set-up is easy, the app is great and everything early pairs with Google Home.

Love how easy was the setup and it makes life so much easier for outdoor lights. Now, I don’t have to go outdoors to turn the lights off at night. Perfect!!

This device works really well and the wifi range is a lot better than expected, used on the outside and so far is working as expected, no one single complain about it. Great work TP Link, thanks.

With this product you do not have to wire an indoor switch, to turn the power on to an outdoor light. You dont even have to leave the building..
