BN-LINK Smart Wi-Fi Plug Outlet, Remote Control by App, Compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, Weatherproof, Requires 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, ETL Listed

I find the Smart App for them better than the BNLink app. It takes a while to figure out things like Dusk to Dawn setting - not obvious. But once done Scenes is brilliant.

It doesn’t need a hub to work. Just connect it to your Wi-Fi network using the products app and it’s ready to go.

I bought two sets. Installing the APP and connecting the devices was easier. Now my Christmas decorations on both sides of the house turns and off together at the exact time.

Read the instructions and use the Easy setup. If you try to connect to your network intuitively (like the other 8 smart devices I have connected worked first time) you will waste hours - it just wont find the plug. Also, if you have a dual frequency mesh network like mine, the app will tell you that youre on a 5Ghz network and lead you to believe that you cant connect -- ignore that and press continue anyway -- thats the only way to get connected. Now Ill wait for winter to see if it is really waterproof as they claim (guessing it will fail one week after the free return period expires).

I bought 2 of these for our Christmas lights. Easy to install. I did have to purchase a Wi-Fi extender because one of the plugs was too far from the house which I didn’t anticipate. Once I installed the extender, we didn’t have any connectivity issues.

Installation can be confusing, expect to spend a few minutes on that part. I use it with Alexa to turn on/off outdoor holiday lights and it works perfectly.

The unit says it can be synced with your smart phone. However the instructions do not match the video. When calling the listed phone support, no one answers during business hours. Chat does not respond, says if not answered wait for response on your e-mail. It says in app UNIT ONLY WORKS WITH 2,5 Gig wireless. I have Spectrum 2.5 with many items on system. App says 2.5 is shown for my router yet message says phone WiFi is 5 gig. The unit is BNLINK and app is available. However video says look for Tuya app. I register to both, neither sync with the phone. Also to sync manually there is no Smart Dimmer Plug option. Video says chose Outlet WiFi, then clicks on the first icon which is not the correct one in the app. The Alexa connection on the video is so fast I didnt go near it, having already spent an hour trying to sync this monster. I would have kept it but you cant dim the bulbs from the unit, only on and off. I bought this in Feb so it cannot be returned to Amazon. Avoid BNLINK if you value your time.

Used to control heating cables on my roof. Worked perfectly. Both outlets can be seperatly controlled...nice.

Very easy to set up and use. As advertised.
