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

No pude configurarlo con la red mesh eero, a pesar de apagar la red 5 GHz seguía sin conectarse al wifi

Works great with HomeKit. Easy to control

Doesn’t support 5 GHz

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.

Great solution if you want more than one smart plug as it doesnt cover up second plug on a typical 2 plug wall socket. Each device is individually controllable and there is a physical button for on/off for each plug so you can still control it manually if you are near the plug or dont want to grab your phone or talk to Siri. Excellent quality of materials and design. This is not cheaply made and the price is reasonable for getting two devices controlled.

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

It works!!!

Product works as advertised. I’m able to control two outlets from anywhere and set up my scenes on apples home app with ease!

There’s a lot of smart plug options out there, but this ones well worth it. Had no issues setting it up and is working perfectly so far. Priced a little higher than others out there but adds an extra outlet that can be controlled individually and it monitors energy use in real time.

Like the simplicity
