Wifi Smart Plug Set of 2 Mini Smart Outlet Compatible with Alexa Remote Control By Smart Phone from Anywhere Anytime (2 Packs)

Work well. Easy to set up. Downside is the shape. Hard to fit 2 cords into 1 wall outlet. Smaller Square shape work better.

Best Plug ever. I bought these to control The lights in my house. They work amazing Theyre actually probably making me Lazy But I dont care Because its so cool To be able To just say Alexa Turn off The light And the light turns off. They were very easy To set up And install I definitely recommend them As part of your smart home setup.

One of them flickers on and off repetitively but the other one has worked flawlessly. Maybe theyre just too cheaply made and it was dropped during shipment but one them didnt suffer as much.

Im giving a pretty high review because I easily set up both of these using the default approach, and the price is good for the feature set. I downloaded the Smart Life app on iOS, created an account (yes, it requires your phone number...Im not too troubled by that). I had one problem giving my full Wifi SSID password, it was too long to enter into the Smart Life app on iOS. So I attached these to my guest network which has a shorter password (and probably a good idea anyway). If not for this one problem I might give a 5-star review. There was also a backup connection approach which makes these their own temporary WiFi AP (a lot of devices do this as an alternative connection means). I did not need to use that, as the plan A approach worked fine for me. I renamed each of these to a good straightforward name and enabled the Alexa Smart Life smart home skill, and discovered the devices. All of this worked flawlessly and I can use the app or Alexa to control these. The Smart Life skill also supports IFTTT for the more advanced home automation tinkerers. My only concern, I guess, is that these require a cloud platform to stay running for them to continue to work - and that means ongoing costs. If the company ever decides to shut this down, these no longer function. Although made in China my two units both connect to EC2 instances in US-West-2 on the MQTT port. You can easily check this by checking your local router to find the assigned IP, then search in the list of open ports what target IP and port they connect to, and then run a whois to find ownership of the related IP block. Anyway, Im counting on these staying operative but I guess there is no guarantee. EDIT: Ive been using these for many months and theyre still great.

Love these little guys. I bought 4 and just order 6 more. They are extremely easy to program and set up. I am controlling them through Alexa and they work great. Im going to use one to control all the Christmas lights my wife is going to make me hang this weekend.... :-)

Im very happy with these smart plugs. I have three of them and they were super easy to connect and work perfectly. They were extremely simple to connect (with the smarthome app) and then it was really easy to link those to google home. It was actually an easier and better process than my hue lights. Now I can turn these switches on and off any time with my phone or home mini. My kids can turn them on my talking to my google mini, which they LOVE to do. The app is really easy and allows you to set up one-time or repeating schedules (by day, if you want). Thats basically what I want it for: To turn on my fans in the evening when people go to bed. They were cheap, they do everything they promise, they are unobtrusive, and they are fun. Whats not to like?

Really great to have and use however, within a week one failed. Couldve been that the heater it was attached too was over the current rating? I have another Jina of remote plug (outdoor version) that has no problem with a heater.

Works well with a wall lamp. But doesnt turn on any appliance that has an on off switch. It wont turn on the appliance without manual intervention. It will turn off or on the wall socket it is plugged into. Also, seems to have a power limit. When plugged into an appliance that draws some serious wattage, it turns itself off.

Purchased these to remotely power cycle up wireless cams and these work perfectly. We had a power outage and turning the power strip off in the house made the wireless ip cam to refresh the ip. Turning the strip off, then back on, resets the connection then the wireless ip cameras come back on line!

Waited to hook up all four and watch for a few days and so, great! App for IOS is easy as can be. I need to experiment and see what happens in a power loss before we go away. A question was emailed me by Amazon before these arrived. CAN THEY FIT WITH ANOTHER PLUG? I ordered these because they appeared to allow room for the other outlet. This turned out to be true, only a larger head plug like the angled ones on some surge protectors do not allow both to fit. Anyway, Ill update this if plugs fail but so far they look like an excellent investment. Dont try to read the skimpy instructions, just scan the code with the phones you want to program and its pretty intuitive (for iPhone, at least) from there. the program looks like it can consolidate smart feature programming and makes it easy to review current schedules by day of week.
