WYZEPlug Outdoor, Dual Outlets Energy Monitoring, IP64, 2.4GHz WiFi Smart Plug, Works with Alexa, Google Assistant, IFTTT, No Hub Required, Black

Although these are for outside I bought these for use inside in areas where I need two plugs controlled by one outlet. I cannot believe how easy these setup and just connected to Wi-Fi, right out of the box, compared to other smart devices in my house. I did not have to play any games, drop the security on my router or any other weird stuff. They did come with a firmware that was approximately a year old. And a couple of them took a couple tries to update the firmware but, overall, now that they're all updated they're working even better. These devices were truly a joy to work with and I will not hesitate to buy Wyze devices again!I do have one, very, very annoying complaint though ... Why in the world don't these have a 90 degree plug !?!? Especially If they are designed to work outdoors and in a protected box.For the future ... Two nice features would be dimmable or three way sockets.Update Aug 2023: We had a Thunderstorm and power outage. Since then, all of these have remained disconnected in both the Wyze and Alexa apps while every other device in the house has well since reconnected. This is NOT good as they are buried behind couches, buffets, etc ... Those I can see just sit there with the blue light blinking. I was able to unplug two of them and plugged them back in but they still will not reconnect. Lowering my rating as this is an absolutey HUGE issue if this happens every power outage and everything has to be re-setup.Update June 2024: There must have been some kind of firmware update because now they seem to reconnect with no issues after a power outage. Moving my review back up to five stars.

We purchased this to use with holiday lights, wanting an easy way to schedule on/off cycles, and also control the lights directly whether we're home or away. We've found this plug delivers well for those use cases.Notes:* The cord on this is approximately 5". The "box", is approximately 2.75"W 4"H and 1.5"D.* The plugs are standard 15A at 120 volts, 60 hertz (approximately 1,800 watts)* The plugs do not have dimming capabilities, these are on/off only* The plugs (2) work independently of eachtother* All schedules or rules are created in the app, the plug does not have "controls" on it, other than on/off buttons* These operate on 2.4GHz so they will work within a 'normal' range for this band. Ours is within 25' of our home and we've never experienced an issue with connectivity.* Setup and connection to the Wyze app was simple and pain free. Creating a schedule was also quick and easy.Improvement suggestion:The plug is designed to hang down, which intelligently keeps rainwater from coming near the points of contact. It would have been great if they used a 90 degree plug rather than the "straight out" plug which causes the cord to then bend at a 90 degree angle. The cord is thick enough that I don't have concerns about it failing, but it seems like this small alteration would have been a no-brainer. I see this on many of the cheaper, off-brand versions of these outdoor smart plugs.At just under $10 and are very pleased with its construction and performance. We have other Wyze devices in our home so it was nice to purchase a Wyze plug and not have to download yet another app to control smart devices. If you use Alexa, this should work well for you, too.

The Wyze Plug Outdoor has been a fantastic addition to my smart home setup, especially for outdoor Christmas decorations. Its dual outlets are incredibly convenient, allowing me to control multiple decorations with ease.What I love most is the energy monitoring feature. It’s great for keeping track of how much power my decorations are using, ensuring that my festive spirit doesn’t lead to unexpectedly high electricity bills. The IP64 rating also gives me peace of mind, knowing that the plug can withstand outdoor weather conditions.The setup with 2.4GHz WiFi was straightforward, and the fact that it works seamlessly with Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT makes it a versatile choice for any smart home ecosystem. The ability to control my outdoor lights with voice commands or through the app adds a layer of convenience that I appreciate.Its certification as a ‘Certified for Humans’ device is well-deserved. I’ve found the Wyze Plug Outdoor to be user-friendly, with no need for a hub, and its black design blends well with my outdoor setting.Overall, the Wyze Plug Outdoor is a reliable, smart, and energy-efficient solution for anyone looking to add smart control to their outdoor appliances or decorations. Highly recommended for its ease of use, durability, and smart features.

I would give 5 stars except the first one I received stopped working after 8 days. Fortunately, I just returned it on Amazon and purchased a replacement. The new one has been working well since I got it.The plug is easy to set up. I connected it to my wifi network inside the house then moved it outside to its working location. I especially like that you can set separate automation rules for each of the two plugs on the device, allowing you to independently control two different things with only one wyze plug. I have Feit outdoor smart plugs and the rules apply to both items plugged in (which is fine because I use them for Christmas lights which don't need to be controlled independently). Back to he wyze plug... You can set persistent on and off rules, even scheduling them to take effect on different days. Or you can just turn the plug on and have it go off after a selected time duration (or turn it off and have it come on after a specific time has elapsed). You can also deactivate rules without deleting them so you can come back later and easily activate them again. The only downside is the the plug on the device is not a 90° plug which makes it a bit awkward to plug in under some in-ise outdoor outlet covers.Overall, if you're looking to add some automation to outdoor devices, this Wyze plug is a great option.
