> 3 dayI have an odd C-shaped apartment layout with lots of 2.4GHz interference (mainly WiFi from neighbors and lots of walls) that’s really not very conducive to a good ZigBee network. So, I purchased these to help bring my living room (on one end of the house) in range to my SmartThings hub (on the other end), which happens to be in a bit of a radio shadow for my SmartThings Hub. I found some spots that happened to link up my living room to the hub through a few hops and now my devices are up and running again. It’s a little slow right now so I’m going to get even more of these to make the mesh network even more robust.

> 3 dayThe plugs seem to work well so far - Im using them for a couple of small fans. Worked fine with Zigbee2MQTT - just set it to allow devices to join and plugged them in, then they joined instantly. They show up as eWeLink SA-003 in Zigbee2Mqtt and Home Assistant.

> 3 dayI bought a pair of these. Im using one of them as a Zigbee bridge to reach devices far from hub. The other is being used as an outlet. Im using them on Hubitat, and they were discovered immediately; I didnt even have to press the button. Nice!

> 3 dayI like zigbee products because it is a mesh network and it doesnt take up bandwidth from the wifi. As I build out my zigbee network it will become stronger and stronger. Soon my network will overtake my neighborhood and then the neighborhood coffeehouse. I will be the envy of this city.

Greater than one weekThis works well with Google assistant. Dont has to find skills like Alexa not that you need skills to work them but there are skills to work all the other features. Maybe when Matter or Thread is fully out that may go away

> 3 dayTheyre cheap smart plugs. First one just died after 19~20 months of being continuously plugged in and on. Here I am ordering another pair as replacement. They follow ZigBee standards well enough, and serve as repeaters for the network. These stop my cats from burning out the pump motor in their drinking fountain when they splash all the water out.

> 3 dayThis works reliably and well, but the max current makes it good for lights, no good for appliances and heaters. If you need a heater, get the Sylvania Zigbee smart plug instead (good to up to 15A/1800W)

> 3 dayAfter receiving the items I found that they didnt connect properly to Smartthings. I contacted the seller and they immediately responded. They apologized and sent me an updated version which works perfectly with Smartthings. I would not hesitate doing business with CMARS again. Great people to deal with.

> 3 dayThey work wonderfully, paired effortlessly, and even show up as on-off lights in the hue app, so you can control them with the various automation features.

> 3 dayThis is the easiest outlet I have ever integrated into either a Alexa or SmartThings. Literally plug it in and the rest is just a couple of app taps. It’s just great..takes two minutes or less.
