Smart plug
The TP-Link Tapo Smart Plug Mini 15A has been a fantastic addition to my smart home setup! This compact plug offers a remarkable blend of functionality and ease of use. The setup was a breeze—just plug it in, connect it to my Wi-Fi network, and I was up and running in no time through the intuitive Tapo app.One of the standout features is its 15A capacity, which handles high-power devices effortlessly. I’ve used it to control everything from lamps to space heaters, and it works flawlessly every time. The ability to schedule on/off times, set timers, and control it remotely from anywhere is incredibly convenient.The design is sleek and unobtrusive, fitting neatly into any outlet without blocking other sockets. Plus, the integration with voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant makes voice control a seamless experience. It’s reliable, efficient, and has truly simplified my daily routines. I highly recommend the TP-Link Tapo Smart Plug Mini for anyone looking to enhance their smart home setup with a dependable and versatile plug!

GET THESE – For power monitoring, safety, Charge Guard, easy setup: SO WELL DESIGNED
It is rare that I see a TRULY well-designed product – software, and/or consumer electronics. But these are the rare gem: clearly well thought out, designed, and tested. SUPER easy setup (if you have the app installed and open, it will automatically prompt you to add when one is plugged in) – total of 75 seconds to setup, beginning to end INCLUDING a firmware update. (not including entering WiFi information – only needed for the first device)I originally got it just to monitor how much power devices were using (WAY cheaper than those Kill-A-Watt type meters: smaller, records history, AND remote monitoring!)But found so many more great, useful features when I started setting up the first plug:- SCHEDULE: you can set absolute times (i.e. ON at 5:03pm, OFF at 11:17pm), or RELATIVE times to Sunrise or Sunset, WITH OFFSETS – BRILLIANT! (other plugs only give you right AT Sunrise/Sunset). My living room gets dark about an hour BEFORE sunset – so I can set the ON = SUNSET-(1 Hour), OFF = 11pm, and it will adjust automatically throughout the year! Always 1 hour before sunset. No changing it with seasons, or Daylight Savings Time!! May use for low-voltage lights and Christmas lights (i.e. a little before sunset until a little before sunrise)- CHARGE GUARD (Beta): it will turn off whenever it detects the power dropping below a certain level (currently configurable 1-20 watts) for a certain period. GREAT to protect your battery, device, and HOUSE. I just set one up for my eBike charger: <20w for 10 minutes, and it shuts off when done charging. Safer, and better for the battery. Will be using them for charging my drones/quadcopters/RC stuff, drills, phones, cars, 3D Printer (ie when done printing), etc.- TIMED OFF (Auto-Off Timer): it will turn off after a set period of time, *every time you turn it on* (i.e. after pressing the power button on the plug, OR by remote)So use on things like: iron, hair curling iron, hotplate, soldering iron, EBIKE (mine is set to 10 hours), etc. This works IN ADDITION to "Charge Guard" and Power Limit.- POWER PROTECTION (LIMIT): turns off if your wattage limit is exceeded (short? failure? fire? etc.). I set my eBike charger plug to 300 watts, as it normally draws <200w.- AUTO FIRMWARE UPDATE: I'm tired of updating devices manually! And I have A LOT lol (time window configurable)- NOTIFICATIONS: I've only tested the "Charge Guard", but it sends you a notification "Charge Guard turned off Device X" - I expect similar from the other modes- Quick response: plug turns on immediately from the app (at least when I'm local) - some other devices have a few second delay- Good sized, long-term company. TP-Link has been around for years, with lots of networking equipment - so they'll be around for a while, and maintain their app - unlike the little no-name brands. This also suggests these should be well-designed for reliability and longevity.I feel much safer about charging my EBike with this (set to max 10 hours, 300w, and auto-off when the charging power drops below 20w for >10 minutes). A VERY low price for peace of mind!Oh – and I can see how much power a device is using – my original goal 🙂 Current/real-time, past (history), which days, cost (if you enter your $/kWh), etc. All nicely graphed out.Additional features I haven’t explored:”Smart Actions”, like geofencing (turn things on/off based on your location, like lights on/off when you’re home vs away)Device integration with things like leak detectors, contact switches (eg on doors), humidifiers/hygrometers, Smart Buttons, Group actions (when one device is turned on (or off), turn other device(s) on/off), cameras for motion detection

Easy to pair and works well
TP-Link Tapo Smart Plugs are easy to pair with Bluetooth. After they are paired, they work with WiFi nicely. Directly paring with WiFi is not easy.With the smart phone app, they show recorded the energy usage of the plugged in device(s). They can be scheduled to power off plugged device(s).Comparing to SONOFF S31 WiFi Smart Plug with Energy Monitoring, the Topo plugs are far easier to pair with the phone. The Govee Smart Plugs, while easy to pair, do not record the energy usage.

There are plenty of other brands out there, but I selected Tp-Link H105 because it’s the most compact version, as in it doesn’t block the other plug hole, and it comes with a great App that is full of features.The WiFi in this plug is solid, so it’s great for those times when you need to reset a remote camera, or a light, fan, TV… whatever…The scheduler option is great, specially the Dusk and Dawn function, it’s great for lights you want to auto come on at night and off during the day.but the most important thing of it all, the H105 is reliable, it always works even when your WiFi is unreliable.The Kasa App is easy to use and intuitive, unlike other IoT Apps.I’ve had these for several years, then I recently decided to add even more of these plugs because they work so well.

Nos encantó, es súper fácil de vincular con la app del celular.
