WiOn 50051 Indoor Wi-Fi Smart Surge Protector; 6 Grounded Outlets

very good product.easy set up

Bought this because my fiancee was always worried if she remembered to turn her straightener off when she left the house. Easy to set up and works great....PROBLEM SOLVED! Customer Support is great as well. I switched internet providers and they emailed me back promptly on how to reset and connect to a new network!

These turned out to be better than I was expecting for Christmas lights. The app & Wifi ability for setting light timers was great. Also use for my roof heating system.

I am not that handy with this stuff and learned the hard way that following the instructions really helps. The temptation for me is to look at things and think it is instinctive. Dont do that. Follow the directions and you will be successful the first time. it works really well.

WiFi signal from unit never became visible. Poorly written instructions.

i had a bit of a problem sync it to the wifi/phone. it might have been because i had it setup on a different wifi than the other devices (in a separate house). had to do a little restarting but got it working and all good now. works as expected!

This thing is a massive failure in my opinion. First, you only get 4 plugs that operate as a group. So all 4 shut off and on at the same time. Secondly, there is no way to reset the thing. If you happen to change WiFi, or even delete the device from your app, there is no coming back. I read somewhere that you have to completely take the device apart to reset it. Seriously? Now I have a device that I cannot access, which shuts off all plugs at 8pm. Wow. Junk. Do yourself a favor and spend the money on the TP-Link plug. Its amazing.

Ive purchased several individual WiFi outlets, and was excited to see a power strip that I thought, incorrectly, would allow for each of the four outlets to be controlled individually. This is clearly stated in the description. I now see that. My decision was based on the pictures. This is my fault. However, I do feel misled by the photos that show Bedroom: lamp and Bedroom: Fan as separate devices to be controlled. Who would need a power strip to individually control a fan or a lamp? That said, the device does function well if you want to turn on four devices at the same time. **Update: 6 months** Id give this fewer stars if I could. I didnt use it for a few months and now I cant even get it to find my home network when the device is in the same room as my router. Always searching for a router, never finding. Seems like very low grade everything. But it still looks pretty, so I guess Ive got a paper weight.

I have some security concerns - the first time you configure the device it looks like you have to transmit your wifi password to it over an un-encrypted connection. After that though it looks fine - though keep in mind that any phone on your home wifi with this app installed can control the device as well. Other than that, the unit seems to work well. The app is functional if a little rough around the edges. Ive disabled cloud mode which means I can only alter the schedule or force on/off the device when my phone is within range of my home wireless network.

Price doubled!
