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 like everything about this product. Dual sockets are controlled individually or as one. Setup with Go Smart (just like SmartLife) was easy and quick.

I purchased 2 of these and even though my wifi is 2.4 it they both never worked with the app and never saw bluetooth?

Its able to survive the elements and will work as expected, however its finicky to get into pairing mode to join the WiFi network. Once you get past that, its a cinch to control. I love that it works with the SmartThings app so I dont need to install yet another app. My router died recently and the replacement uses the same SSID for the 2.4 and 5Ghz networks, so now I need to go though the pain one more time for setup! Other than that, its a decent unit.

This outlet works great with our Echos, one first gen and one second gen. Im so very pleased with these! I ran one outside on the second level to power lights over our deck, pictured. Then with the other outlet I rand a cord under the deck to do the same thing for that area which is always so dark. Rename the plugs upper deck and lower deck and youre in business! Without meaning to, i found out the Echo will turn on or off BOTH outlets if you say, turn off the deck, because the word deck is in both names. Pro tip! Haha. On similar note you can name the entire device something else, like back 40, and tell the Echo to turn off the back 40 and it will cycle both outlets off, etc. So far Ive had this outside for 2 months. Its not protected from tons of rain, wind, and sub-freezing temps-- and has had zero issues so far. I love this thing!

This is definitely worth the time it took to install it. It was hard for me at first as I had to adjust my router to seperate the 5.0 and 2.4hz of the router but once I got that done, it made it so much easier to turn on my light when I needed them.

Easy to install once the app is downloaded. Works exceptionally well. Flexible schedule creations

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.

Bought this about a year ago and it worked great for six months. Then it just started shutting off randomly. Doenst stay on for longer than ten to 15 minutes. Tried to contact the manufacturer numerous times with no reply. Cant recommend.

Works great and saves me from having to plug the lights in every time I want to turn them on.

Easy to use. App is super convenient. Highly rec.
