> 3 dayIm generally quite satisfied with YoLink products. The range is great; connectivity on all devices (of which I now have 8) is above average and the features on such devices such as the temperature/humidity sensors are excellent. Regrettably, the single smart plug I own does not live up to the standard set by its sibling devices. It loses connectivity often, despite its being less than 20 feet from the YoLink hub. Sometimes, when I activate the device with the software, Ill receive a message through the app that the device is disconnected, but the plug will still carry out my command. Other times, quite randomly, the message regarding the lack of connectivity is spot on and device status remains unchanged. Ill explore YoLinks other devices in hopes they are better than this smart plug. I may need to return this one, though, since it is a central component of what I consider a critical automation function - preventing pipes from freezing during cold spells.

> 3 dayThese portable electrical outlets work really well, just like all YoLink products. Easy to setup, easy to use, nothing but smooth sailing. You can setup a schedule for when these outlets are ON/OFF. You can also turn them ON/OFF via the app you install on your phone, from anywhere you have an Internet connection. They also have an ON/OFF physical button on the side of the outlet.

Greater than one weekI used this to control a heat lamp in a climate-controlled animal cage. It is paired with a Yolink temperature sensor and works great.

> 3 dayI like these plugs and use them for multiple applications around the house and property. Theyre trivial to install and get programmed with the app for very basic control rules. The low power requirements and extremely long distances permitted with these devices make them extremely compelling. I have 8 temp sensors, 3 motion detectors, 3 plugs, and one DC relay. I will continue to use Yolink products for years to come. The reason I cant give this a fifth star is that it uses a mechanical relay (you hear the click when its turning on and off), but it cant handle an inductive load (like a power tool or heater coil). Ive never seen an adequately sized mechanical relay fail due to the type of current loading on the switch. However, my first plug died after about 8 months of use running a small (< 200 Watt) space heater. Its still connected and the LED switches from red to blue and back, but theres no power delivered. Lastly, the Yolink app needs a little help before this setup is ready for prime time. 1) It needs the programming ability to turn the plugs on and off based on two threshold criteria (to emulate hysteresis). 2) The base station needs to function without a connection to the Internet (my ISP drops my connection for hours on a regular basis and I live right outside a major metro). 3) The whole Yolink system needs better integration support for common third party automation hubs such as Google Nest, Home Assistant, and others that implement the most common backhaul protocols.
