SwitchBot Smart Plug Mini 15A, Energy Monitor, Smart Home WiFi(2.4GHz) & Bluetooth Outlet Compatible with Alexa & Google Home, APP Remote Control & Timer Function for Home Automation, No Hub Required

I absolutely love having this around! I have lots of lights that I use for decor and in order to save money on electric I decided to buy this smart plug to set up a routine of when they turn on and off! I can even pair it with my Alexa and turn them off then, it’s inexpensive and has an app that’s easy to use, the company has wonderful customer service as well! Hope you all enjoy it! I sure do!

The first thing that I noticed about this was the maker...it was interesting for me to see Monster throw their proverbial hat in the smart home ring but I think its great. The second thing I noticed was the MSRP but it was actually very reasonable. I remember a few years ago anything like this would be triple or more. In addition to this being Smart, it tracks energy usage. I am not sure how accurate it is (and I dont have a device at the moment to confirm it), but the math seems to make sense and add up. This was simple to install, it has been pretty easy to integrate with my existing system. I like the simplicity, the features, and the value. Pros: Easy to install Great value Tracks energy usage Works well Cons: I wish it took up a bit less space because it is sometimes more difficult to maneuver around it

Not compatible with smart life.

I have multiple of these and they work great with the phone app. Well worth the price.

The Switchbot Smart Plug Minis are a great value when you buy two. I paid less than ten dollars each. They also do more than other smart plugs I have. I love the energy monitor feature. I can control them with my Echo Dot, or my Google Hub, which is important. They integrate well into the other smart home products I bought previously.

The plug itself is the same you can buy from other manufacturers. Energy Monitor is a cool feature albeit not comprehensive. It has immediate current and wattage and daily consumption. However, there is no way to see how much power has been drawn during the day.

Product is great but the response with hub is slow

After an extensive, thorough & exhaustive search I finally found only 1 smart plug that operates via Bluetooth & doesn’t require a constant WiFi connection - the SwitchBot Smart Plug Mini 15A. Using Bluetooth provides better reliability, unlike WiFi that can drop the connection or go out at any time. The app set up wasn’t as slick as I’d like, but it didn’t take very long to set up & add schedules (15-25 min.). Hopefully this app will not follow in the footsteps of the horrible & unreliable Avi-on app required for an older model GE Bluetooth Smart Switch (Plug-In).

I have only had these for 2 days, so cant review the longevity, but the devices seem like great quality and the setup was so simple. The app took no time to get from the app store (android). The signup was simple and only took an email address and PW ,then a verification code (-1 minute). I ordered 3 SwitchBot plugs and had them all plugged in and monitoring, with power on and off schedules in less than 20 minutes for all. PLUG 1. In our entertainment area, we have a 65in big screen, with a full size PC (mini KB/mouse) and audio all plugged into a power strip that plugs into one SwitchBot jack. I set several schedules to automatically power on in the early evening (just before we get home or are around to watch shows or surf), and then power off later every night. PLUG2. We have an attic fan that pulls air from the garage into the attic to vent/force both to the outside. The fan is a modern and powerful fan, but a big draw on power (want to monitor that). I set it to turn on in the late morning and off at 10 pm (fan has a thermostat, but I wanted to have it run for set times too). PLUG 3. The last one is hooked up to an extra frig/freezer in the garage just to monitor power consumption. I am not too knowledgeable about electricity, but want to monitor the power consumption info and figure out what it all means in the app. It gives real time KW, amp and volt readings, and exportable historical data. So far I am very impressed and highly recommend. A total bargain for these and what you get. I am exited to look at some of the other SwitchBot products.

Not for 5000 btu ac.
