> 24 hourThe reason I decided to try YoLink and their devices . 1) The price of the hub is very reasonable, unlike other smart hubs I have been looking at. 2) All the different smart devices that Yolink has. 3) After reading up on YoLink devices, the hub and devices are extremally easy to setup. Open the app, scan the bar code on the side of the device (in this case, the plug) and it is connect within seconds to the hub. Then a few seconds later I get notification that Alexa has found new smart device, without needing to open the Alexa app and scan for new devices. This is great, at least to me it is. Makes it much simpler. 4) YoLink had motions sensors that would works with Alexa and my other smart devices. 5) Everywhere I searched, included youtube, YoLink received very high rating. Now to the reason I decided to try (and now love) these YoLink smart plugs. The first Yolink plug: Up until lately I only used WiFi smart devices in my home. The drawback is that if you lose internet connect, NONE of your smart devices work. I purchased one of these plugs to test. Connected it to the YoLink hub, then using the app set it so that when the motion sensor in my garage or utility room sensed motion this plug would turn on a light in the utility room. This is because every time I lose internet, it is at night (and dumb me, have wifi smart switches in the utility room and garage), and I have to reset the ISP box. It works great, I walk out there and the light comes on, leave the area the plug turns off the light, with or without internet service. Great it works as everyone said it would and it was extremally easy to setup the automation via the app. The second plug purchased: I liked how the first one worked. The second one is connected to my ISP service box that needs to be reset at least once a week. (that is what my ISP keeps telling me to do when the internet goes down) I have this plug turn off the power to the IPS service box, around 4 am every morning and turn it back on ten minutes later, fully resetting it. Problem solved, no more fumbling around in the dark trying to reset my ISP service box. It works great because the hub, not the internet is controlling the smart devices. So, Yes, I highly recommend the Yolink smart plugs, hub and their other devices for the reasons stated above.

> 24 hourI have been very happy with the Yolink devices. The use of LoRa for connectivity means much longer range and from my experience a much more reliable connection. The app is very easy to use and pairing the devices consists of scanning a code which could not be easier. The devices integrate with Alexia without an issue and unlike some of the IoT devices I have used have proven to be very stable over time. I like that I can put a switch on my mailbox on the street and get notification on my apple watch when the mail is delivered.

> 24 hourNo more wondering if my girlfriend turned her curling iron off! And my living room lamp comes on and goes off the same time every day, or I can turn it on from bed if I need to. Customer service is absolutely THE BEST, Eric will help you with any issues. He even emailed me months after to check on how everything was working.

> 24 hourThese work awesome! I used these to track and set times to allow LED lighting on in our barns for animals. Easy to set up automated times when it is on or off. The range on this product via the Yolink App and Hub is absolutely amazing! Our barn is from 1840s so solid stone bank barn that wifi is horrible in. Yolink is the only product that can work because it doesnt truly rely on wifi as long as the Hub has wifi access which we connect to our Erro hub for direct connection. These can also be connected as an automation to a motion sensor as you walk into a barn or room! great stuff!

> 24 hourThese portable electrical outlets work really well, just like all YoLink products. Easy to setup, easy to use, nothing but smooth sailing. You can setup a schedule for when these outlets are ON/OFF. You can also turn them ON/OFF via the app you install on your phone, from anywhere you have an Internet connection. They also have an ON/OFF physical button on the side of the outlet.
