Outdoor Z-Wave Plus On/Off Light and Appliance Plug, Two On/Off Smart Outlet, Zwave Hub Required, Works with SmartThings, Wink, Alexa (ZW97)

First thing out of the box I noticed this wasnt going to work without a short extension cord. The socket ground side is the same as the screw anchor so this wont allow wall attachment. Your plug must come straight out to allow use and if you have two outlets in use you will not be able to have any large wall wart or angled plugs. Therefore order a pair of short heavy duty extensions when ordering this device. Setup with home automation hub is simple, but I have no remark for the built-in program process as I didnt have to manually install. Only other remark is the port numbers should be brighter so one can see them more easily.

I really like that the two outlets are individually addressable/controllable. I use this primarily for outdoor holiday decorations, but the individual control means that I can borrow the outlet for the garage lights and use it to run my saw temporarily without having to light up the rest of the house in the process.

Good product , works with Security panels with the integrated zwave hubs.

I have a lot of z-wave devices on SmartThings as a reference and this device has the worst lag and z-wave reception range out of everything Ive seen! Whats more is that this is a powered device so there is no excuse for this poor z-wave reception quality. I have a battery powered Ecolink water leak sensor right beside it which can easily communicate directly to the hub with no lag but I had to install an outdoor z-wave repeater just for this switch. Even with the z-wave repeater, the lag between the on/off switching is incredibly long and I wouldnt use it for anything but occasional switching. You have to wait sometimes for 20-30 seconds for the device to respond to the switch request. The plug should have been 90 degrees instead of straight. The weight of the device tends to unplug it from the outlet. There is some really poor engineering in here. Otherwise yes it does work and it is weatherproof to a certain extent.

So far so good after a month. Paired this with a Hubitat hub. I bought a few of these to use with outdoor lighting. Temperatures here have not got any colder than about 20 degrees Fahrenheit so I have no experience with truly cold temperatures. Still, no issues thus far when using with a daily routine that turns the lights on and off. Z-wave network inclusion was simple and problem free. I previously used GE branded outdoor z-wavewave plugs. These were easier to pair with the network.

I bought this for use outside to control a water fountain. It paired easily with my zwave hub and works with no issue.

I have a pond fountain and accent lighting that I need to add to my automation. This duplex was Ideal to allow me to still have an available outlet outside for other uses. My Automation is ADT Pulse and it added and worked perfectly. (I was not sure that it would work with ADT, but I was pleasantly surprised)

Great concept with 2 controllable outlets, but absolutely terrible device. I have no idea how this has anything above a 2 star rating. I purchased 2 of these devices. Each one was placed within 30 feet of a z wave 700 series (extended range) device and only 2 hops from my hub (also 700 series). I have a strong a wave network. They worked fine for a couple of days, but then started failing about daily. I didnt have them on a demanding schedule either--just on and off once per day. I replaced them with a different (but single outlet) device and it worked well. These are garbage--stay away and dont be fooled by these skewed reviews.

I have only just used this to control some outdoor Christmas lights, but so far so good. I really like the 2 outlet design, giving more specific control for 2 powered devices/plugs. We have had some sub-zero weather already, and the outlet continues to power on and off with my lighting schedule. The reliability has been spot on so far. Paired into Hubitat directly, using their native drivers with no problem. It does create 2 child devices off the single parent device. But each child is individually controllable.

I consider myself pretty good at smart home devices and have added dozens of device to Samsung Smartthings (SS) with no problems. But, for the life of me I could not get both of the outlets to show in SS. The second outlet was worthless when setting up my Christmas lights.
