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.

The Yolink is based on LoRa connectivity and i have found this to be way more reliable than any of my WiFi connected devices. The switch interfaces nicely with Alexia and has been super reliable.

Instead of binding directly to the router, these program-able plugs bind to the YoLink hub, thereby relieving the router of too many and less stable connections . Each hub can handle 300 different connected items. Best remote control plug on the market.

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.

I use YoLink products in my home and my ice cream shop. It was so easy to set up these products using the QR codes. The new long range technology is incredible and so reliable! I even have temperature sensors inside freezers that are linked to the hub!! I am so excited about these products that I bought five kits for Christmas gifts for my family!

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.

Used it to turn on/off a intex 14 Sand pool pump. Works with alexa, you can also monitor your power history... kinda nice. Contol this device with the YoLink app or your Alexa. Called support to ensure product will work with what I was trying to do. Very knowledgeable and kind. Solid unit.

Great to link with the temp sensors for easy automation of heaters. Nice 12.5 amp upgrade, older model was only 10 amps. Get it! Its the best.

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

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.
