Smart Plug Mini 15A, WiFi Smart Outlet Works with Alexa, Google Home Assistant, Remote Control with Timer Function, No Hub Required, ETL Certified, 2.4G WiFi Only, 4-Pack

Wanted something that could control our non-smart bulb lamps. These were the right choice to go with, easy to pair with our wifi and alexia. Definitely a set and forget item. Have had zero problems with them since we installed them.

Someone gifted me one for our bearded dragon’s cage lights and it works amazing. This is the reason why I bought this one for our other bearded dragon. It does take forever to figure out how to set it up even with the instructions but once you get it going, it is great to be able to manipulate through your phone.

DE LOS DOS CONECTORES, UNO DE ELLOS FUNCIONO CORRECTAMENTE PERO EL SEGUNDO NO HACE EL CLIK EN EL INTERRUPTOR Y NO CONECTA COMO DEBO HACER PARA PROCEDER AL CAMBIO? GRACIAS NO RECIBO RESPUESTA A COMO DEBO HACER PARA EL CAMBIO

I bought this when I wanted to automate the Christmas tree light since we can hardly see any of it in daytime and I dont want to keep going back to the back of the tree to unplug/replug it every day. It works very well for that purpose. I used Android app called Smart Life to connect to it. It was very easy to do. It has manual on/off, schedule of when you can turn it on/off, and even random function, if Im not mistaken, to simulate someone in the house when you are away. It has audible click on the device when it turns on/off. Other than that, its a silent operating outlet. My only concern is whether the electrical savings from auto on/off is greater than the WiFi component of it to justify using one. I would say that this device is good enough to use if your outlet is very tedious to access or you need timer for when certain things need to be on/off.

There are about 8 different “Smart Life” apps in the AppStore. All seem to do the same thing. Possibly the hardware is sold under different names. Ultimately I scanned the QR code which took me to Tuya.com, and I downloaded their version of the app. No mention of Tuya in the docs and no mention of HBN in the app. Setup - it was not obvious how to get past the screen where you confirm the flashing LED. The “next” button isn’t highlighted... you have to tap the tiny line of text that says “confirm....” Also, the illustrations in the app don’t match the plug. The app shows an LED on the face of the unit; in reality it is inside the button on top. So is my unit older or newer than the app?? Once set up the modules are very easy to use, with no issues so far. They boot up much more quickly than WeMo modules (and are less than 1/4th the price.) Recommended.

Seem to be working as intended. Much better than another brand I purchased and had to return.

I only used one unit for my patio lights works great along with the app turning them off and on when needed. Haven’t set a timer sequence only want them on as needed

I have now used 3 of these. I bought one a few months ago and it worked well! I had a lava lamp plugged into it and it worked well with the app for a few months. I decided I would buy a second one for my salt lamp, thats where the issues started. On the other side of the room I plugged in this other socket to a surge protector, it worked for maybe a few days, then suddenly stopped. I couldnt reconnect it, I was in the return window still so I decided to try for a replacement. The replacement didnt connect either, and I accidentally lightly nudged my lava lamp plug and it decided to stop connecting and couldnt reconnect either. Im not sure whats up with these, I wish I could go back in time and not buy a second one I guess.

I was unable to get the app that comes with it to recognize it- which then made my Alexa app not useable. So I cant really say- but if nothing else the ability to set it up was not there. so as a normal plug with a on off I guess its ok.

You must have a separate 2.4 ghz channel on your wifi. Most routers now combine the channels and you have only one named channel. If that’s the case, these won’t work, they must have a dedicated 2.4 ghz channel. Ended up sending mine back
