Eve Energy 2 Pack - Smart Plug & Power Meter with Built-in Schedules, Switch a Connected lamp or Device on & Off, Voice Control, no Bridge, Bluetooth Low Energy, Apple HomeKit, Bluetooth, Thread

Love the Eve Energy plugs look, but they are slow to respond Everytime I switch them on & off. Would be great to see Eve fix the latency issues.

These are the only HomeKit smart plugs that are always connected to HomeKit, and they boast support for thread and energy monitoring. As far as I know, these are the only plugs with these three features: HomeKit, Energy Monitoring & Thread support! I’ve tried and returned brands from Kasa, SwitchBot and 2 generic brands as all of them constantly were “not responding” and were missing thread support. Eve plugs are easily 2X the price of any other HomeKit smart plug, but turns out they are worth it. I now have a price watcher looking for sales!

I purchased 4. 1 refuses to connect to HomeKit and 1 emits a high pitched noise when not turned on pretty disappointing.

They are expensive, but they work reliably. So if you want a set it and forget it smart plug I think this is the brand to stick with. Also it has thread which is a nice feature that may prove useful as that grows.

This product is certainly nice. The thread connectivity is unmatched. The outlet works well for a while, then inexplicably stops responding. I tried resetting it, following all the possible solutions in the manual. I finally managed to add it back to the home, but still wouldn’t respond. After a few hours of trying to get it working again, the device failed to function properly. It had to be discarded. This isn’t the first time this happened. Clearly, the manufacturer either needs to look at the microcode for their firmware and/or the have a hardware defect. Waste of money.

It does function as it supposed to. It is compatible to apple HomeKit. The only problem I have with it is the tiny bit of the Lay one trying to turn on and off all day than that perfect.

Trying to get a replacement, this device blow out

One smart plug failed but no response from Eve support after 1 week. No way tin contact or call them.

Incorporates thread and you could download free firmware update to incorporate matter. I was interested in only thread and the price was cheaper than buying the newer version which has matter already updated. Save yourself some cash and get this model and update firmware. Response times seems quicker than outlets i have which do not have thread. Replaced W..o V2.0 recently hacked outlets which the company would not update. Go EVE.

I wanted to use my fairy lights with apple HomeKit (nothing more annoying than having to physically plug and unplug the lights to turn them on/off) and these smart plugs make that possible. SUPER easy to set up, literally all I had to do was scan the barcode in my home app, pick the room it’s in, and give it a name and it was working instantly. I do want to note that I have a Thread network in my home, and these are Thread devices so they respond instantaneously. I’m not sure how well they work/how fast they respond without thread (i.e. just on Bluetooth), and I also can’t speak to how they work with Alexa or Google home, but if you use apple HomeKit and have a thread compatible HomeKit hub (either a HomePod or Apple TV 4K) then you NEED to get these. It can be harder to find good accessories for HomeKit than Alexa/Google, so these are a must have because they’re tried and true.
