TP-Link 𝗧𝗮𝗽𝗼 Smart Plug Wi-Fi Mini, Energy Monitoring, Compatible with Alexa & Google Home & Samsung SmartThings, Timer, 15A/1800W Max, ETL Certified, 2.4G Wi-Fi Only, Tapo P115(4-Pack)

Very happy with this smart plug. It works well right out of the box. The app is easy to set up and use. I also connected it to my Samsung SmartThings home system and that worked really well and easily. And through that I connected it to my Amazon Alexa system pretty easily. Probably the best part of the app is that you can tell it what your electricity rates are. And even if you have rates that are split between certain days or certain hours of the day, you can tell it that. And then it'll tell you how much the electricity used on whatever device you are measuring cost you per day or per month or per year based on the actual costs that you had entered. I've got it set up to turn on at 8 p.m. when our power gets cheaper on our electricity plan to activate the plug for our EV. And at 6 a.m. it turns that off. And so we're only charging the EV during the time when the rates are the cheapest. That timer was very easy to set up in the app. Solid product, highly recommended. Very good value for the money.

Works well, have it connected to smart things with other devices since was trying see usage of every device compared to light bill. Don't have them set to come on and off since most of the devices they're on can be turned off and use no power recorded when turned off so far. Have messed with it before and are able to turn off and on the power which could be handy if wanted something like that if wasn't home, was easy to set up and hook to wifi.

These smart plugs have been pretty useful since I got them. They work well for my 3D printer and seedling grow lights, which is what I bought them for (I don't even bother with those fancy hydroponic setups). Setting them up was easy enough, though the app took a bit of fiddling around to get working properly. It does have some cool features though, like energy monitoring and scheduling. One time it showed me that my printer was using way more power than usual - turns out I had left it on all night by mistake! (I'm too busy thinking about new designs to worry about turning things off sometimes). The plugs themselves are small enough to fit into most outlets without any issues, and they have a nice clean look. The fact that they can be controlled with Alexa is a bonus - I don't even need to get up from my desk to turn on the grow lights now. They're pretty decent overall, though sometimes they take a while to respond to commands. Still, for the price, you really can't complain too much.

I am so so happy with this purchase. Easy to setup, works very well. Application even showing kwh for day or for months usage. Awesome!!!

We purchased the Tapo Smart Plugs to better understand how we use power in our home and to reduce our power consumption. The Tapo Smart Plug is an excellent tool for this. We installed 8 plugs around the house to monitor our power usage by area or device, e.g., refrigerator. Read on for our impressions. -- EASY INSTALL: The app installed on my Android phone quickly found the devices and paired with them. You can rename each device to make future power usage analysis easier. One issue with the instruction was that they stated to use the find method of Wifi or Bluetooth, depending on the model. My box noted Wi-Fi; however, it did not work. I had to use Bluetooth to pair each plug. -- FAIRLY ACCURATE: We compared power measures of the Tapo with other meters and found the Tapo provided a reasonably accurate number. -- A BAD ONE: One of the 8 units we ordered was bad. Amazon replaced it quickly. -- EASY TO USE APP: The app is easy to use, providing both instantaneous power measurements as well as kWh daily or monthly. -- CAN EXPORT DATA: The data can be exported as an Excel file to save the data and for editing for further analysis. -- WORKS REMOTELY: When using the app while away on a trip, it opened and provided the real-time power measurements of each plug. Update after 3 weeks of Use: 2 of the 8 Plugs stopped communicating. I unplugged and replugged with no success. I pressed the button for 5 seconds to reinstall, and 1 one of the plugs was immediately recognized by the app, and I reinstalled the plug, and the past 3 weeks of data were recovered, which I was very happy to see. The other plug WAS NOT immediately recognized, and I had to scan for a new device. It did reinstall, but as a completely new device,e and all past data was lost. For that, I removed one star from the review.

I highly recommend this energy monitoring plug. The build quality is fantastic, and it has already helped me keep my electric bill under control. If you are looking for a reliable way to monitor your power usage, don't hesitate to get this one—it's the best I've owned.

These function as crucial telemetry nodes for my localized home-server infrastructure (Sanctuary Sentinel). The granular power draw metrics provide excellent visibility into hardware loads. Integration into my existing automation stack was entirely frictionless. Having voice actuation routed through my AI assistant means manual switches are completely obsolete. They hold a solid connection to the 2.4GHz band without dropping off the routing table.

I spent the better part of 2 hours attempting to get these 4 plugs connected, then finally did, only to have 2 fail to stay connected and refuse to connect again. Will not buy Tapo again. As others have said, the plugs do not appear as a wifi hotspot, so you can only use bluetooth to attempt to connect them. This is not my first rodeo with this type of thing. I have ensured that I was on the same wifi network, only 2.4gHz, because these are only 2.4gHz plugs. I ensured that I was not connected to a VPN, I ensured that my wifi password had less than the maximum number of characters and no special characters. Bla, bla, bla ad infinitum. It looks like Tapo, Tp-Link, and Kasa may be the same company now? I don't know, but it sure has degraded from what it used to be. I would never, ever buy this junk again. Even when I did accidentally manage to get the plugs connected, 2 of the 4 failed to stay connected and would not reconnect after a power cycle. I used their Tapo app, as instructed. I believe that I tried Smart Life first, as I have stuff on their and have had good luck with it, however it did not work with these plugs. I have subsequently purchased "AiSeek" brand that uses the Smart Life app and they would immediately connect and have stayed connected for several hours so far. I worked on both brands in the exact same location to ensure a fair comparison. I trusted the brand from previous experience, now I wish that I had read the reviews. Be forewarned!

Works perfectly, easy set up with an easy to use app.

He visto opiniones de que no soportan tanta potencia pero en mi caso no quería usarlos para equipos de alta potencia, funciona bien para cosas de uso doméstico comunes, mide el consumo, ademá tiene distintas funciones de programación y rutinas.

Si quieres un control cuando no estás en casa o simplemente a cierta distancia, está es la opción perfecta Pros 1. Fácil de configurar 2. Se usa la misma app que focos o algunos otros aparatos de la marca 3. Programable en horarios 4. Controla cada uno de los dos contactos independientemente 5. Se puede usar con timer Contras: Ni encuentro ninguna si acaso pudiera serlo el tamaño puesto que no es un contacto pequeño o discreto pero para tener dos salidas y por su estética no es un gran inconveniente. Otro pudiera ser el precio pero lo compré en oferta y así resultó ser una gran compra. Si te gusta la tecnología, quieres hacer tu casa un poco más inteligente o simplemente quieres poder controlar fuera de casa algunos aparatos tal vez para aparentar qué hay alguien en casa o prender algo antes de llegar o apagarlo después de cierto tiempo sin molestarte esta es una gran opción sin duda

Muy funcionales, muy rápida respuesta de encendido y apagado
