Minoston Z-Wave Plus Outlet, Mini Plug in Socket, 15A, Z-Wave Hub Required, Built-in Repeater/Range Extender, Work with SmartThings, Wink, Alexa, Google Assistant, FCC & ETL Listed(MP21Z)

I used this with my Samsung Smarthings hub. The plug sits in a corner behind a couch about 45 feet away from the hub or even farther as I also use it in my front yard to turn on/off Christmas lights. The hub is like 5 feet from the backyard. Both outlets can be turned on/off individually. There is also a button to turn the plug on/off manually so this can be operated even if your hub is not working. Pairing with the hub is very easy and I didnt have any issue. I stored this plug with the Christmas lights at the end of the season and 10 months later I plugged it back in and poof it works without me to re-pair or anything. Overall Im very happy with this plug.

Purchased two of these, have been using them for a little over a month. Integrated into Home Assistant with little to no headache, followed directions and had no issues setting them up. Nice thing is you can edit things such as the LED status, so you can turn the LED on/off as the default. It has Auto-On and Auto-Off timers that can be edited, but I have not used these settings so I dont know how well they work. As well as its power state after power failure; Always on, Always off, or Previous state. One issue Ive been running into with only one of the two I have, is with energy reporting. Around once a day at a mostly random time there will be a massive spike in (not real) reported power consumption (kWh). Making using this as a form of tracking power consumption very iffy. Ive checked to see if there is maybe an odd setting that is causing a bug, but so far Ive come up empty handed. I can only assume its a hardware defect as it only effects one of the two that I have until I find a way to fix the issue. Other than the one issue it works fine. Its just that this issue is a critical one as its really the only reason I purchased them.

It’s tricky to get the first installed because I kept accidentally restarting it rather than pairing it with the system but it works very well once it’s all set up.

Easy setup and configuration into smarthings was simple

I got the mini plug. This is a nice z-wave switch. It is very small so it doesnt block both outlets when plugged in. It easily connected itself to my Smartthings hub. And, it is also configurable (for example, when power is cut, you can program it to be off, on, or last state when the power returns). I also like the led in the switch (which is also configurable). The one flaw is the button on the switch. Depending on where you press it, it doesnt have a positive click. I got 3 of these and 2 of them have the issue. It doesnt affect the function but it can leave you wondering if you pushed the button.

Ive got a few of these in the house. Set up though my smartthings app is a breeze. Controlling them though google assistant and my phone is awesome. Put one of them in the garage for a water recirculator. Will be interesting to see how it holds up to the temperature fluctuations. As of now they are great.

I bought a couple of these to control power to DMX-controlled LED pars on our church stage using the Hubitat Elevation hub. The objective was to be able to turn on power to everything on the stage from our tech booth, and then turn it all off when we leave for the day. In case something got left on, I could remotely turn them off via the Hubitat app on my phone. The switches integrated beautifully with Hubitat, and remote control was easy. All lamps powered thru the switch were well within the power ratings of the switch, and they were all hard-wired DMX (i.e., no wireless DMX). The problem I ran into was that some of the LED Pars would randomly blink off and back on again occasionally. This problem went away when I switched to a different brand of Z-Wave outlet, so I can only conclude there was something in this switch that the LED Pars didnt like. I am going to repurpose these for home use, as I really like these switches and how well the integrate with Hubitat. I think in any normal household application, theyll work fine.

I purchase a lot of similar looking similar prices ones from a different company. However I bought another Minoston product that blew me away so though I would try one of these. These are among the cheapest of this type I have seen anywhere. There are not a lot of plug in dimmers out there any more on the market and these at this price are a steal. They usually dim up or down smoothly sometimes but very rarely flicker. I bought about 7 of these types to replace smart bulbs that continuously would lose programming and have to be added back it was driving me insane so had to find something that wouldn’t keep losing its programming. I highly recommend these and hope they will continue to work I have only had around a month now and so far so good.

I use Home Assistant and was unable to get this to include and work. Was forced to return for refund.

This appears to be a Inovelli rebadged product. Which is a good thing because they have a sterling reputation. Im using this with Home Assistant + OpenZwave integration. Pairing was a cinch as are controls within HA. The device exposes itself as 3 devices + 4 entities (3 plugs(???) + 1 Zwave repeater). Im not sure why theres a 3rd plug being exposed, but 2 of them seem to control the right outlet. Its pretty easy to disable the unused entity in HA, so not a big deal. As for repeating, my network is refusing to heal and route though the plug. Its unclear if this is a problem with the plug or my end devices. Im assuming its the latter, so 5 stars for the time being. Ill update this if it turns out to be the plug.
