Minoston Z-Wave Plus Smart Plug, Outdoor On/Off Outlet Switch, ZWave Hub Required, Weather-Resistant, Built-in Repeater, Work with SmartThings, Wink, Alexa, Black(MP22Z)

I was very happy this plug just worked. No smartthings firmware BS, I just plugged it in and searched Minoston in smartthings. Very Nice!

As others have pointed out, the plug is not a flat 45 angle as described on the box. This was not a deal breaker for me even though the flat plug would have worked much better. As for the device itself, I was able to pair it on my first attempt with a Vera hub. The Please Read sticker said that it would auto-include upon plugging it in for the first time so I was sure to have my hub in discovery mode when I plugged it in.

I added this to my SmartThings hub easily. Installed outside (it’s in an eave of my house) to control outdoor string lights. I created an automation for the lights to go on after sundown and turn off before midnight. Integration was easy as with all my other SmartThings hub devices for Alexa voice automation. I have another outdoor zwave plug that I bought a few years ago that I use for holiday lights. This one is more compact and more cost effective.

Easy to set up and connect via Alexa and my alarm system. I would but again. A little pricey but a good item.

This outdoor Z-Wave switch is great for water fountains and outdoor lights. The unit can handle extreme hot and cold temperatures, has a very long distance range compared to other devices that Ive tested

Used and integrated to my existing Z-Wave mesh, (SmartThings) + mostly GE outlet/switches and it was seamless. Currently working for my gazebo and so far no issues. Follow the instructions (READ FIRST) and there should be no problems.

The product has a hard time reaching the Smartthings hub. I had to bring it into the house to pair it up and it works outside about 50% of the time. The unit is placed in the garden lighting transformer box, so leaving the door open to the box, works great. Closing the door on the box, can connect. Just barely on the cusps. All my all devices work fine around this unit. I will need to modify the placement of this and then it should be fine. Other than that, product materials look well made and product came to me pretty quick.

I was able to pair this plug to my SmartThings hub when placed in close proximity. However, once I placed it in my backyard there was no connectivity. I then added 2 z-wave smart plugs nearby to act as repeaters, and connection was very spotty. Id say on/off commands would register only 20% of the time. On/off status was incorrect most of the time too. I placed an Enlighten/GE outdoor z-wave plug in the same location, and have no issues. Im sending the Minoston back

Using it for some outdoor low voltage lighting. Working great. Setup was easy with Hubitat.

Product works, it was included into my Hubitat Z Wave network easily. However the plug design in not as advertised, it does not have a 45 degree flat plug. It has a standard straight plug. I will keep it, but the 45 degree plug would have made placement much easier. I have attached photos for your reference.
