KMC Smart Plug Duo, 2-Outlet Wi-Fi Smart Plug, 2-Pack, Multi Plug Adapter, Independently Controlled Smart Outlets, Works with Alexa & Google Assistant, No Hub Required

I ordered this KMC Smart Plug 2-Outlet Plug because I wanted to have the flexibility of two female plugs on one outlet. I didnt quite realize how complicated it is. To begin with, both Outlets have a switch on the device to power them on or off. I really cant see any advantage to this; Id rather that they were both perpetually on so I dont have to check the power indicator and switch them on or off each time I use it. This is not a major inconvenience, I just dont see the need for it. And the device has an App you can download to your phone, so you can control the output with Alexa or Google Assistant. This allows you to set parameters according to, time, sunrise/sunset, weather or more. Personally, I cant think of a single use I would have for any of these functions. As I said, I just wanted a Dual Outlet on one plug and thats all I was really interested in. I suppose the extra functions are nice, I just wont ever use them. I do like the functionality of this device for the purpose I ordered it and I cant say it doesnt work well. I do recommend this Smart Plug for whatever the reason you want it and my rating is Four Stars.

Could not get them to connect. I have 2 or 3 other types of plugs that you plug in, add Wi-Fi password and name in the Alexa app and done in 5 minutes. After an hour of trying it keep’s timing out. App is no help. Ordered for myself and for Christmas gift, but definitely returning and will reorder the ones I have that work.

I use these to turn off the fans on my porch and bug lites in yard. Works everytime, set up was super easy

Ive got more appliances, lights etc. in my home on the Smart Life app. Adding another was a breeze. You just press the button until the light flashes and then do a standard discover new device in the app. If you are new to Alexa or Google smart devices its a good idea to get this smart plug set because once you see how convenient it is to control lights, and a whole slew of other things with just your voice, you will get the fever, and want to automate things all over the house. The other advantage to this KMC duo smart plug is that it installs into your outlet sideways. I cant tell you how many outlets I have completely tied up with only one smart switch that hogs the footprint blocking the ability to plug something else into the same outlet. They are not all that way, but it happens frequently enough to really appreciate this one. On top of that, this set is engineered to be a double stack with twin doubles side by side; great idea. All in all, a 5-star combination.

This device functions well, but does not suit my application. The basic problems are physical. I want to control two LED aquarium lights that are powered with wall warts. The first issue is that there isnt enough space between the sockets for them both to be plugged in. The second issue is that the power block pushes the devices switches and turns them on an off.

First of all I like the package. Each receptacle is independent so you can control two different devices and at different times. Thats pretty unique. Once setup it works great with no problems and the app couldnt be simpler. There is a different button for each side of the receptacle. Now notice I wrote once set up that is my issue. I tried for a good hour trying to get the app to pair with the Duo plug. I tried everything: plugging and unplugging, manual scan, auto scan, pressing and holding each power button (the led was already flashing) - nothing worked. The app would not discover the device and timed out after two minutes. Finally I unplugged the Duo and restarted my Pixel 3 smart phone. Once the phone booted up I plugged in the Duo and the app found it instantly. Since Im using an android google pixel 3 I dont know if this is an android issue or a KMC issue but Ill give them the benefit of the doubt.

Syncs up with SmartHome quickly and offers a fully programable experience. I love that you can control the outlets independently. This is a great little dual socket. Just plug it in, and hold in one (either one) of the socket arrows until the light starts blinking fast. Then open the universal SmartHome app, and hit + to add a device - it takes care of the rest. We are very happy with it.

The price can be reduced. It’s worth buying. So far very good.

Easy to get up and working through the app. Does work great with app. I can not get Alexa to recognize it.

Good product for the price.
