Satechi Dual Smart Outlet with Real-Time Power Monitoring - Wi-Fi Smart Plug 2.4Ghz Enabled - Works with Apple HomeKit (USA, White)

It works!!!

Works great! Works as two different HomeKit plugs. Always works, and it doesn’t disconnect, which I appreciate.

This dual outlet was super easy to set up. I was worried with it being 2.4ghz only and my network has the same SSID for both 2.4/5ghz. It had no issues connecting to my network and setting up in HomeKit. Will absolutely buy some more.

Constantly disconnecting and non responsive, only smart home device I own that behaves this way. Get the Meross dual outlet instead.

I was looking for a smart home plug to replace my second WeMo Insight that died (thats the second one in two years, so caveat emptor: WeMo Insights have a really short lifespan), and this one seemed like it might do the trick. Installation and set up in the app was quick and easy. It was also quick and easy to see that the only way you could find any information about power usage was to open the Satechi app. It doesnt even report in use/not in use status with Apple HomeKit the way the WeMo Insight does. So its obviously possible to have that functionality, but that might actually take some programming that goes above and beyond checking a feature list item. Why is it useful to know whether the switch is in use/not in use (which is not the same as on/off, its more like, drawing power/not drawing power). Its useful for reporting when appliances that are doing stuff for you have completed their chore. Like the clothes drier for example. Using the WeMo Insight, when the clothes drier completed its cycle, the WeMo app would send me a notification that the switch was no longer in use (not drawing power), so I knew the load had finished. Likewise, the Insight and the WeMo switches are supported on IFTTT, so I could run some automation integration with HomeKit, like playing a drier finished tone on my HomePods to alert me to the fact that the drier had stopped. Its too bad. The Satechi switch seems really well built, and heavy duty enough to last. But as often happens with hardware companies, they fail to recognize the potential value of taking the software to the next level of functionality. In their rush to get a well built hardware product into the world and start making sales, they deliver something run by software thats not truly useful to their target market. Then they end up having to turn that sale into a refund.

Works great with HomeKit. Easy to control

Works great, no issues. Just plugged it in, and looked for it in home

Works with eero Pro mesh network—first time. Way better than iDevices.

Its nice to have two independently controllable smart outlets in a relatively small package. (This product is wide but not tall, so it leaves either the top or bottom outlet free, on a standard 2-outlet receptacle.) Power usage isnt reported separately for each outlet, which, while typical for multi-outlet products, is still disappointing. Id like to know the power consumption of each device I plug in, not total power consumption for the pair. As other people have mentioned, network disconnections do occur, and this requires reconfiguring the product in the Satechi app (terrible) or in Apples Home app.

Geared towards Apple users and doesn’t disappoint!! Easy to set up, just remember to connect to 2.4Hz instead of 5Hz and you’re set. I like that it easily integrates with the Apple Home app or the Satechi one and works flawlessly with Siri.
