Kasa Outdoor Smart Plug, Smart Home Wi-Fi Outlet Timer, Max Load 15A/1875W, IP64 Weather Resistance, Compatible with Alexa, Google Home & SmartThings, No Hub Required, ETL Certified(KP401)

I use this for some outside string lights and it works great. Connects well with Google assistant and the phone app is designed intuitively. I love the timer settings. This was a good purchase.

I bought this device to control a string of outdoor lights on my balcony. While it was a little tricky to set up the app, it did not take that long. The app works very well, and my lights are on a schedule that I created in a few seconds. I can also press a button that turns them instantly on or off. Very satisfied. Highly recommend and would buy again.

this is perfect for high humidity in my mushroom tent, I have over 20 kasa plugs and this one fit the bill for inside my tent with 95% humidity, I can dim or turn off my led lights inside, been using kasa plugs for over 2 years now with zero complaints

This thing has seen two years of outdoor use without being unplugged. Its been completely under piles of snow and was still connected to our WiFi. Incredible!

Im always amazed by affordable gadgets that serve their purpose so reliably that you forget theyre even there. This dimmer/timer works flawlessly and the phone app makes everything conveniently controllable if you want to adjust your lights. A winner!

Does its job as a weatherproof smart plug. The picture, as of March 2023, is incorrect - it shows a straight plug (the male end), but TP-Link support informed me that the new hardware version (v1.26) of the KP401 has a bent plug (90 degrees from the direction of the cord), and the old hardware version with the straight plug isnt being made anymore. 4 stars instead of 5 because it wasnt as pictured, and getting an answer from TP-Link support was unnecessarily difficult.

I had some difficulty getting the device set up on my network. The customer support person, Jacky, provided detailed troubleshooting instructions and followed up with me regularly until I was able to connect. The switch works really well on my Edison bulb string lights around my deck.

This is a great little smart plug especially if youre in the Kasa family. The set up is simple just like all Kases smart devices. It is probably 75 feet away from my wireless router with 4 walls in between and has good signal. I use it to control my swimming pool pump and I can set up schedules on my phone and also use Amazon. Alexa to turn an off and on.

I used this to power up string lights in the pool area. We already had a couple of the wall plugs and theyve worked well. The Kasa app is simple and easy to use. Wifi setup is about as painless as it gets with your phone app. Setting schedules is much easier than the Lifx app, and overall Kasa is better at making it simple. I dont have any color lights, so cant comment there. Ive got this plug and an interior wall plug on schedules. Both come on at sunset and are timed to go off at different times. The sunset/sunrise adjusts on its own with internet data and is accurate. You can set this to come on with a delay, or just set it to a specific time. This is also dimmable. I didnt know if the string lights were, but this plug handles it no problem. You set your percentage of brightness and it stays that way. If you schedule, setting them up to fade in and out is also available. It can be a fast or slow fade, too. The plug itself isnt much different than any heavy duty extension. The cable and housing are rugged. This would be perfect for Christmas lights, yard lights, or anything else you want on a timer or just the ability to power on/off with your phone. Also works with Google Home / Assistant. Tell it to shut off the lights and everything is out. Nice product.

I bought two of these for my holiday lighting where I didnt have a programmable switch. These smart outlets worked perfectly.
