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

Compared to the Bluetooth eve units I have, the on-off response is nearly instantaneous. Easy setup.

12/27/19 I do not recommend this product. Trying to set up and both the HomeKit app and the Satechi app pop up with a message telling me I have to use WiFi or cellular data to add the product. Triple checked that I have data for both apps turned on and also checked that data is working. Still get that message. Beyond frustrated. (If the company wants to put out a quality product and works to have quality customer service, I will update if this fix the issue) Will return this product if the issue is not resolved. Edit on 1/1/2020: I purchased a new iPad and was able to get the outlet to work on this device, thank goodness as I did not want to return this product. I raised my rating from one star to three stars. My reasoning behind this rating, the outlet does not work on my iPhone X at all. If I had known this I may have gone with another product. The company needs to specify which devices this product work with and if WiFi is the only option, that this product will not work at all on cell data. I double checked and did not see any reference to not working on data.

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.

Good product

Really, really, really bad. This outlet is so buggy, I can’t believe they would release not only this cheap hardware, but the app is absolutely unusable.

Works flawless with Apples Home system. Use it to turn on/off my printer. The only negative is the price. But not much competition.

Pros: Fast on/off Cons: Manufacturers app is missing some logic. I can set different schedules for same outlet from iPad and iPhone and have now idea which it right one. Nether one see other schedule. Besides iPad app doesn’t have landscape mode so impossible to use if iPad is a Hub and attacked to the wall horizontally.

Bought several Satechi products before so didn’t hesitate with this purchase. It was easy to set up, just downloaded the app and scanned the Satechi outlet. Being able to plug in two things is a big plus and the energy monitoring is a nice touch. Recommend for any smart home!

Ive used this device for three days. This product was just as I had hoped for, with regard to two individually operated outlets. It doesnt cover the other outlet, as other reviewers have pointed out. I downloaded the Satechi app from Apple for installation (iOS for iPad). Set up was very easy. The device was running in 4-5 minutes. The instructions mention to turn off 5GB wifi on ones router before installing, which I did. After installation was completed, Siri commands work as expected. My only question is for the company: How do I update the firmware? I found the details button for the device, which shows the firmware as v. 3.3.6. But how do I know that this is the latest version? I cant find an update button on the app to confirm. Im happy with the product.

Super easy to setup and begin using with HomeKit. Less than 5 minutes from plug-in to using. Independently controlled outlets make this a real great deal.
