TOPGREENER TGWF115PRM Wi-Fi Plug with Energy Monitoring, Smart Outlet, Control Lights and Appliances from Anywhere, No Hub Required, White, Works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant - Amazon Vine

Great smart plugs, works perfectly with Google Home mini. Use one to make sure my hair straightener is off when I leave the house! Took off a star because they are large, and take up two outlets for one.

I bought these to monitor the power consumption of computer servers that run 24/7 to be able to calculate their energy cost. I also used one on a 3d Printer to calculate the cost per print. BOTH just shut off at different times randomly. No schedule on them, they werent linked to any smart home devices, and the app wasnt running. Plus it was in the middle of the night that it happened, so I nor anyone else around was even awake to have possibly done anything with the app or the plugs themselves. This caused my servers to be down for 4 hours. Not only will I not be able to calculate proper energy cost, but I have lost money from the servers being down and the waster filament on a print when the printer was unplugged by it as well.

I got these for energy monitoring some appliances. My biggest gripe is that they default to off after a power outage, you have to keep an eye on it if using one on a fridge.

Ive owned these for about a year now and theyve been great. Its not the most advanced meter in the world, but the price was right. I did have trouble resetting it. I had to switch the app pairing mode to AP, then press and hold the button for 5 seconds, release (LED should flash rapidly). Then, press and hold for another 5 seconds which will put it in AP mode, the LED should flash slowly. At this point you can connect your phones Wi-Fi to the plug and finish adding it in the app.

From a functionality perspective I would give 5 stars, but the size and shape is a little annoying as it pretty much blocks (or tilt) the use of the other outlet (on standard 2 in wall outlets), I had to put an extension on to be able to use the 2 outlets.

The device feels plastic and cheap but its only the exterior feeling, the device seems to be a very robust one and works almost perfectly, the app is the only downside to it, its just another one of those tuya apps, if you recognize that name, then you know what I am saying, is a copy paste of another apps, and it feels a bit empty on some areas such as the power meter side, but it gets the job done, I wish they would put a bit more effort on the app and expand its capabilities, I am sure it is possible to do it though an app update, and it will greatly improve the possibilities and potencial of the device

To bad these were not designed for energy monitoring only. Do not use it on any outlet that where the device or appliance must remain on continuously. It will turn itself off.

I highly recommend Top Greener’s TGWF115APM. I use mine for the floor lamp that sits on the opposite side of room. Before buying this outlet, I would have to get up and manually turn off the light. There have also been times where I fall asleep before turning off the light. That’s when the time schedule control comes in handy. I set it up so it turns off every night at 11pm. Installing the app was a piece of cake. The WiFi pairing process to my Amazon Alexa took less than a minute. Didn’t even have to read the instructions that were provided. Again, I would recommend this product for anyone that’s trying to “smart up” their home.

I live the topgreener switches outlets and smart WiFi large 15A plugs these are a lot more difficult to set schedules with unfortunately

I had a recent power bill that was up 50% from the month before and I had not even used the heat or A/C for 30 days so it had to be something in the house. Bought this 2 pack, and while the installation took a bit (has to be 2.4.ghz band on your wi-fi - including the device used to install) they are working as described. It would be nice if the app would allow you to add the local rate for $ charged for power so it could give you a reasonably accurate amount that you are using in a money factor. On a side note, I would not consider this to be an essential item, but it was delivered in 48 hours per PRIME. Nothing that is being sold by Amazon is arriving in less than a week - even when my vehicle was out of commission waiting for car parts.
