YoLink Smart Plug with Energy Monitoring, 1/4 Mile Worlds Longest Range Smart Home Mini Outlet Works with Alexa Google Assistant IFTTT Remote Control Home Appliances Anywhere, YoLink Hub Required

Product is dead on arrival. Not sure I will attempt a return as I had it reshipped out of the country to my home in Costa Rica and no way to return. I have quite a bit more YoLink gear at my home here, and I have been very happy with their products so far. No issues at all until this DOA plug.

I have used various smart plugs and these are by far the easiest to set up and get working. I also love that there are other products available that allow you to monitor / control them all from one app. These are great. May order more for vacation home.

Yolink products are just fantastic. From how easy they are to setup, support, to usability. This Christmas was a yolink Christmas all our lights are easily configured to turn on and off automatically. Integration is fully controlled by Alixa.

In the past couple months, Ive been trying some YoLink devices because of their range and because some have the ability to do things when there is no power. I put this particular plug on my refrigerator so I could monitor the energy usage. I discovered to my surprise that it has the ability to return to a pre-determined state in the event of a power outage or a blip in the power. I dont want my refrigerator staying off on a power interruption as some others do but return to the on state. I tried it and it works. I found the setup quite easy, too. BTW, I have absolutely zero connection to the company or Amazon but am just a happy customer.

Works find as a Yolink controlled outlet but as far as a smart power monitor product it only provides Wh (Watts/hour?) on an hourly basis. There is no amperage reading which is what I was really after. No granularity, no min/max. Not sure this is worth the extra cost over a normal plug Yolink sells.

I have been holding off on a home automation solution because I couldnt find a brand that had all the functionality I was looking for along with ease of setup and affordability. I stumbled across yolink and cautiously gave them a chance since I never heard of them before. Im glad I did and have since recommended them to a number of my friends. Everything works as should and I love the smart IFTTT integrations. The possibilitys are endless. Ive since setup water detectors, motion detectors (Mailbox w/alexa integration), garage doors controllers and 12 wifi light switches so I can easily control all of my outdoor lights. All works great. The wireless range on these devices is amazing too. I was hesitant because I didnt want to add a hub but after learning more about LoRa and the range it broadcasts Im glad I did.

This is a very good smart plug set based on more than 3 month of daily use . First of all , the design is is modern and beautiful. Instruction for installation is clear and easy to follow . The plug is 12.5A, suitable for most of my appliances. I’m using the two plugs to control the lamp and the space heater in my master bedroom . They’re very responsive when I control them through the APP. Their statuses change instantly without any delays . Setting schedule and timer works great just as advertised. I can also check their energies daily, weekly and monthly.I set the turn-on time for the space heater as 7pm as I usually get home by 7:30pm. It executes well . But for days when I get to the house late , I just power on the plugs via my App. I don’t really use other bedrooms in the house . But before I started to use space heater +smart plug, I had to keep the house heater on for the whole day or it would so freezing. Now I can turn on the space heater in my master bedroom ahead of time . That’s a lot of saving on electricity bill without sacrificing comfort . Lol With only two YoLink plugs, I can just make automation between them. I think it will better if I have more YoLink devices to improve convenience of living. Actually I have already purchased the garage controller set. Excited ! By the way , the system works great with Alex. It makes my life much easier specially when I can turn on/off my the lamp while I’m being lazy lying in bed .

The WiFi setup is probably the most challenging step in setting this up, but once you’ve determined your modem settings for compatibility, the installation process is quite simple. The app is also very versatile and you can use it to set a timer for the device you’ve plugged on. A nice feature on the app is power consumption for your device, I’ve attached a snapshot for your reference.

We live rural and are on a well water system. Due to the distance our well is from our house we have a booster pump located near the house for increasing the water pressure to the house and the lawn irrigation system. I have our booster pump plugged into this smart plug so I can turn it on and off remotely from my phone as needed via the Yolink app. It works great and the app tells you when the smart plug is on or off. This plug can be used for many things like seasonal exterior lighting, water fountains etc...

Good but the power monitor feature is not as expected. The energy monitor report the power on daily basis instead of hourly (similar to the temp monitor)? I would like to monitor the activity of device (Sump Pump for example) throughout the day and thats not possible now. Update: It seems that even the energy history is delayed. Only reported the following day so the current day remains zero
