GE Lighting CYNC Outdoor Smart Plug, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Outlet Socket, Weather Resistant Plug, Voice Control Outlet, Works with Alexa and Google Home

This worked out great and helped save energy with the ability to set certain times to come on and turn off.

Updated review: The plug works perfectly with another wireless router. I worked with GE support and found it is something with the Netgear wireless router I have. So updated to 5 stars since it really works as advertised. Below is what I ran into with the Netgear Nighthawk RAX45 wireless router that I have. Worked find with a Comcast (Netgear) router, and Cisco. The Wifi keeps dropping off and once it loses connection, it will not reconnect unless you power the whole device down then back up. After that it will work for maybe a couple of hours before it loses connection again. It has the latest firmware as of this writing per the cync app. It worked well for three weeks, at that time I only had one device plugged into it. Recently I plugged a second device in and that is when the errors started happening I think. Not sure if it is 100% related but that was the only change.

Bought this for my gazebo to allow the ability to turn string lights and gazebo fan on and off. One outlet (that controls the lights) I put on a timer to turn on and off at dusk and dawn. Other outlet we turn on when want to run the fan. Very heavy duty plug. It under gazebo so protected from rain. App is very easy to use and works great!

I had an issue and called customer service. Ken was so helpful!! I love this plug. We use it for our outdoor lights.

This came up on the deal truck and I figured I could use another smart plug especially for my patio string lights so I didn’t have to keep fumbling behind a cabinet to unplug them every night. I can turn them off now from bed if I forget! The setup was super easy and I love that it can be used so easily outdoors!

Does what I need with easy setup and very little fuss.

I recently purchased the GE CYNC Outdoor Smart Plug, and while the setup process was a bit challenging, the end result was definitely worth the effort! This smart plug offers Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, making it a convenient and versatile addition to my outdoor devices. Setting up the GE CYNC Outdoor Smart Plug was a bit more involved than I had anticipated.

One of the standout features of the GE CYNC Outdoor Smart Plug is its dual connectivity options. The Bluetooth functionality allows me to control the plug directly from my smartphone when I am in close proximity to it, making it perfect for quick on/off control without needing an internet connection. The Wi-Fi connectivity, on the other hand, provides me with remote control options from anywhere using my home network, which is extremely convenient when I am away from home or want to schedule specific on/off times for my outdoor devices. The versatility of the GE CYNC Outdoor Smart Plug is also noteworthy. It has two outlets, allowing me to connect and control multiple devices simultaneously. This has been particularly useful for my outdoor string lights and my garden fountain, as I can now easily turn them on and off at specific times or even control them with voice commands through my smart home system. Once set up, the performance of the GE CYNC Outdoor Smart Plug has been reliable. The connection has remained stable, and I have experienced no issues with dropped connections or malfunctioning. The plug has also held up well to outdoor conditions, as it is weather-resistant and designed to withstand the elements.

Love this! I needed a solution for my outdoor spa in back yard (on large concrete slab 30 feet from house. Works like a charm and waterproof. We love the east on and off with Alexa devices “Alexa, turn on spa lights”

I’ve only used google assistant, however I imagine using Alexa would be the same. This product is great, my wife and I have been using this since we put out christmas light up outside and she never was a big person on smart home products but she really enjoys this one as well as the light bulbs. Highly recommend, have not had a problem with it. Very durable in extreme weather. Had two major storms and this product has very great through the storms and after.

Used for Christmas decorations. Liked Alexa integration
