> 3 dayI purchased these to use with my Hubitat system. They work well once you get them to bind to the system, but are a royal pain to get the system to recognize them. Once they bind however they work fine. The power measurement capability of these work nice as well. You are able to read the line voltage as well as the power being consumed by the devices plugged in. I would definately buy these again.

> 3 dayI had a fairly easy time setting this up in SmartThings using the QR code provided with the unit. In SmartThings, I can see it as an outlet, and I can see the cumulative electricity used. In Google Home, I can only see it as an outlet that I can turn off or on. I dont see where the company that manufactures the unit has any app with additional features or information. So I think its just the information you get though whichever Z-wave home hub you use. But its staying connected and doing what I want it to do (which is tell me how much power my outdoor plug-in hybrid car outlet is using so I know my cost per mile).

> 3 dayUsed with Smartthings hub. Paired with no issues. Used to turn on and off christmas lights outside. No water issues shorting out. I did mount so where lights plugged in was facing down so water would not get it.

> 3 dayI purchased this after going against the 1 star reviews as I have used a huge verity of Z-wave devices with my Alarm.com Z-wave module and like to try out whatever is available on the market. I cant say this enough : Read the instructions! SO many bad reviews from people who just did not read how to use this device. Unlike many other z-wave outlets, there is actually a slightly different method to setup. Rather than just a button push during enrolling, there is a button long press to get into learn mode on the device. Once in learn mode, I strongly recommend putting your hub/bridge/gateway/z-wave receiver into DELETE mode and letting it run through the cycle (this is recommended for ALL z-wave devices during initial setup). This sets the device back to factory and removes any potential binding information from when it was tested at the factory. THEN repeat the process and go into LEARN mode for your z-wave receiver. After adding this device from about 10 feet away, I left it about 60 seconds, manually switched the on-board switch on and off a couple of times and then relocated it to its final position around 20 feet away outside. I have it controlling string lights and a bug zapper. It works just as quickly as any of my GE/Jasco/Linear/Aeotec Z-wave devices and is a decent price. I have ordered more as I have not had any issues with this device and the price is right.

> 3 dayIt was easy to add this to my z-wave hub. Put my hub into add mode, press the button and it showed up. Its responsive and have been working well with the heavy rain that weve had.

> 3 dayI replaced a GE outdoor switch with this so I could get dimming of my resistive string lights. The GE never had a reception problem, but this dimmer does. I have 20 devices in my zwave network, so the mesh is pretty strong. The dimmer is just outside my patio door. Nearest other device is two rooms away. I expect it to work well but it loses connection. I will put another zwave device closer to it, but this is disappointing and worse than my other devices.

> 3 dayNeeded an outdoor z-wave outlet to power a set of string lights. Naturally i looked for the cheapest, since everything z-wave is still expensive and came across this guy. Worked great using a generic driver in Hubitat, but ended up reaching out to support with a few issues i had and they sent me a link to their gethub page with their drivers. Fixed my problem.
