@@GeekStreet That's too bad I guess.... It would have been nice. I don't understand... the device makes the connection directly with the power source. Maybe the scheduler it is placed online and not in the device itself... figures... Anyway, you got a new subscriber. Thanks for your reply. :)
Thanks for the review, Im going to be traveling and wanted these so, at night I can turn them on to make it look like I'm home, when my security camera sensor goes off

Nice video, I’ve got 6 working here with no problems, I like the scheduling function very handy for Christmas lights and the winter months for our dehumidifier. In my opinion much better than the amazon smart plugs. Thinking of adding the energy monitoring one soon.
Great work, thanks for creating this video. One note TP-Link have model that monitor the power consumption. Kasa Smart WiFi Plug with Energy Monitoring I believe it's called
Thanks for the comment much appreciated. I'll keep a look out for that one. I've actually got a good product coming soon where you can monitor live energy usage and set thresholds so you can avoid overloading it!
What happens if you cut the power from the plug and connecting it again to the power will it switch on the lamp or it will wait your order to switch it again
Hi Brilliant video . Looks easy to switch on and off via the phone app. Will it work exactly like this if the phone is not on the same wifi network or roaming say 10 miles from home but with a good mobile signal on my phone . . I don’t need Alexa or Google Home can I just use it like in the video by just using the phone and a switch
Great review loved it, very simple to follow, do you know a reason I can't see the (Schedule, Timer, Away +) at the bottom of my App it's the HS100 too.
Excellent review! Does it need WiFi all the time for the scheduler to work? I want to use them to automatically switch the WiFi off at night and on in the morning.
These worked fine until I needed to re set one up and I found the software had changed such that you had to have a WiFi password. Sadly my system uses no password and as such I could no longer set up the software. I would add a password to my system but I have many different devices connected to my network and reconfiguring every one to add a password is too much trouble simply to get this smart plug set up again. Is there a way around this to allow me to join my Wifi network that does not use a password?
I've got the HS105 any smart people here know if its possible to change the default device port from 9999 to something else? because this can be easily exploited.
Geek Street. Nice review! Stupid (but for me, important) question time: I presume that "through the plaster" overhead lights as my house has will NOT work under any circumstances as they are hard wired rather than terminating into an outlet?
@@GeekStreet How could it? An overhead light that when the house was constructed, the carpenters broke through the plaster. It has no cord. A ceiling lamp. The cable is often in the attic. Sorry if I can't explain it better...Unless the bulb itself has a receiver on it that connects to wifi, lol? Not impossible I guess...
Greet Vid, why is it necessary to have an account? Seems like just another way for the manufacturer to be nosey. I see no purpose in having an account with the manufacturer just to use a timer. I canceled my purchase of this item. Thanks for posting. I needed to know this.
Thanks, the account is needed for the remote connectivity, as soon as you setup wifi it connects to their servers at this allows you to remotely control it.

Hi, the schedule function still works if the device is out of internet?
@@iulianhriscu no it won't work.

@@iulianhriscu thanks for the support much appreciated.
@@GeekStreet Meanwhile, Techtonic UA-cam channel replied that it does function the timer if there is no internet. Now I am confused... :)

If only all unboxing and set-up instructions were as clear and comprehensive. Thank you.

Bonjour, est ce que le wifi de ma box doit être allumé en permanence pour que la prise fonctionne ?

Cool ghost can also use it to play with the lights.
My HS100 didn't have left or right arrows. I had to slide the hour and minutes up or down.
What happens if you cut the power from the plug and connecting it again to the power will it switch on the lamp or it will wait your order to switch it again
It will stay in the last position, so if last on it will be on when turned on.
Can you control socket from samsung smartthing app?
Iv'e got one and works great with Alexa :-) Even on a extension socket :-)
Thanks for the comment, I saw it on sale so thought I'd give it a go. Definitely a good one!
why would an extension socket make any difference
@@speedbird737 to control the extension socket via the smart plug.
Geek Street ah ok cool
Can you have multiple have the devices registered onto an app so everyone in the house can control the plugs?
Yes you can do that.

Great video, quick question; will this smart plug work in the US on a 240 volt outlet for my ac?
I really appreciate this information
Thanks

Good review and I've learned a lot. Thanks!
Excellent review! Does it need WiFi all the time for the scheduler to work? I want to use them to automatically switch the WiFi off at night and on in the morning.
Thanks for the comment. Unfortunately not you need the internet to be constantly on for any timers to work.
7:23 how many events can you schedule per day? Is it possible for example to turn it on and off 10 times per day?
I'm not aware of any restrictions, so you should be able to do that.
timer works multiple times per day ?
Hi, quick question; will this smart plug work in the US on my ac with a 240 volt outlet?
Very clear video - thank you very muxh
Thanks for the comment much appreciated.
can I use this on local network wifi only (not connected to internet)?
Does it have HTTP management, or just smartphone app?
Very nice I got one today for my heater did setup Alexa just now and will make schedules too. Very nice review.
Thanks!
If the internet falls of for like 5 minutes will the schedule still continue? And can i plug a 700 watt device into it?
Can these be plugged in side-by-side in a power strip? They look a bit too wide.
Really depends on the powerstrip some are spaced out wider.
These worked fine until I needed to re set one up and I found the software had changed such that you had to have a WiFi password. Sadly my system uses no password and as such I could no longer set up the software.

I think i just felt in love
How do you make Google NOT repeat the instruction tho?
Can you connect directly to the plug from phone or do you absolutely need WiFi to communicate with it? I currently do not have wifi in my home.
For this one you need wifi, but if you want a Bluetooth controlled one check out this:

@@GeekStreet ahh THANK YOU!!!👍
you can turn off and on remotely while you at home only ?
You could control anywhere in the world as long as you have Internet access.
Hi
Does it work with 5ghz wifi?
Bro awesome video. Has anyone ever told you that you sound white haha
Lol... thanks for the comment!
Nice video but what's the power consumption of this plug it self?/
Generally quite low.
Sorry
I want to ask whether the password of my WiFi router is ever needed at any setup steps?
All shown in the video did you watch?
Does the smart plug include a motion sensor ??
No
Can I use with smart life?
No
Does this work with te new nest mini
Yes
so can this be power on off even when i am in another country as long as i have internet?
Yes
@@GeekStreet Thank you for the clarification! :)
@@alexchu2542 You're welcome!

No why would it matter. Don't expose it to the internet

Thanks. Sorry don't understand your question, do you mean will it work under wifi? If so then yes

Can i use this for a home device via WiFi if I’m at work?
Yes
Thanks.
@@baracuda121 you're welcome 😊
Hi Tony from the UK . Wonder if you got your device to work from your phone just like in the video but when your away from home please ?
Hi, will it connect to 4G network?
No wifi only.
@@GeekStreet u literally showed it can

türkçesi yokmu ?
Don't border buying this really lousy, after a while it cannot be off remotely, power will by pass.
Try readding the device and test. Just to note they say it comes with a 3 year warranty....test that out ....it may be a faulty product.
Unnecessary long video... 👎
Have it over a year absolute rubbish , better options out there
What sort of problems have you had, would be interesting to hear as is may help other people decide whether to buy or not.
Yeah your comments are useless without reasoning or evidence
Stupid comment,,
