Smart Power Strip, WiFi Surge Protector, Voice Control with Alexa & Google Home, 4 AC Outlets 4 USB Port with 6-Foot Cord, App Control Appliances, Individual Control, Timing Schedule, No Hub Required

These power strips are great. I needed 7 total, so I decided to be patient and use Amazon's Subscribe & Save to get the price even lower. I've been using them for over 2 months now, and I have not had an issue with connectivity or malfunctions.For reference, I have a UniFi AP providing my wireless, and I have split the 2.4ghz and 5ghz radio SSIDs (wifi switches (any brand) and many other devices do not like combined 2.4/5ghz wifi with the same SSIDs).It takes only a few seconds to pair with the Smart Life App, and a few more seconds to name each output. Scheduling and setting up automation for outputs is easy in the Smart Life App. You can base activation or deactivation of any output based upon weather, humidity, temperature (all internet based), sunrise/sunset, a different switch or output activation or deactivation, time schedule, or based on some energy management information on outputs that have those features (these don't, but they're much cheaper).As an example: I have a dehumidifier that I needed to schedule to run during off-peak times when power is cheaper and turn off at all other times. The unit itself doesn't have a clock (it can do 1hr on, 1hr off, etc, but not a true schedule). I hooked it up to one of the outputs on these (it draws ~450watts) and set it to follow a custom schedule. I had to modify the power board so it would actually turn on when powered up, which may be too involved for most people.Another example: I have a large ceiling mounted projector, and at the media cabinet I have a powered subwoofer and phase-coupled activator. I have another brand's single outlet (also uses Smart Life App) at the projector, and one of these Pinlo power strips in the media cabinet. When I ask Google to turn on the projector, I have a Smart Automation set up to follow that output and turn on the Subwoofer and Phase-Coupled Activator outputs. I could have set up a Routine in Google Home, but it's actually easier in the Smart Life App.Another example: I have a dual smart switch installed by the kitchen, and I have a lamp on one of these outputs in the media room. One of the smart switches controls the kitchen light, and the other is just an output with nothing wired to the output side. I have 2 Automations set up: the first is to turn on the lamp output when the switch is activated, and the second to turn off the lamp output when the switch is deactivated. Now I can turn the media room lamp on and off from a non-physically-connected switch by the kitchen, as well as voice commands.Pairing Smart Life to Google is easy, the only issue I have (and the issue is between Google and Smart Life, nothing to do with Pinlo) is that you basically have to add the devices a second time in the Home App (you don't need to pair them again, just "include" them to the Home/Room that you want). First world problems, am I right?I use these to reduce some vampire drain on many of my electronics when I'm not using them. These use ~1/2 watt total when not activated, and ~1.5 watts with all outlets turned on, which is less than any one of the things I would plug into it.The outlets are spaced well enough apart that you can get at least a couple of wall-warts plugged into it no problem, depending on the size, orientation, and whether they all have ground pins (mostly an issue with sideways type transformers) you might even get 4.I'm very happy with the performance, design, and functionality of these, I plan to get several more.

Because smart home devices are clearly here and here to stay, it was amazing to buy a product that just works. And it works with the ecosystem I use. Setting up is easy to a little frustrating. The mobile app is fine - could use a little tweaking- but I'm not complaining because you really ever need to open the JinVoo app when setting up or changing the names of your devices (you don't really need to do this if you change it in Google Home).Each outlet works individually. There are multiple USB ports that work individually of the outlets but not of each other. I purchased this item when it was on sale and I have kept it in my cart's "save for later" section in case it ever goes on sale again. The white version looks sharp, the black version looks even better.There hasn't been one time (and I mean this) in the last 8 months of owning and using this device that it didn't work on the first voice command. That isn't something I can say for some MAJOR company's products. I have purchased three so far. - one for myself and two for my sister.As soon as this device falls under $25 USD again I am going to purchase another one.Just as an aside - the reason I keep this item in my saved for later section is so that I can purchase the same JinVoo smart power strip I did before. If you do a search for smart power strip there are MANY MANY MANY options and if you accidentally purchase two products that look exactly the same but from two different companies you will then have to install two different apps on your device. I don't know about the other company's products because I bought JinVoo first and then stayed with it because it worked.

I bought 2 of these so that we would have adequate outlets for each side of the bed - The main reason for wanting this SMART item is because her fan freezes me almost to death at night, so I named one of her outlets "the fan". Now when I wake up with icicles coming from my nose I can just say - HEY GOOGLE - TURN THE FAN OFF and voila! It's off.So the warning:on my side of the bed I have a desk lamp that has outlets included which I plug my alarm clock into. Well, the smart item sees "desk lamp" as a light and lumps it in with my smart bulbs in the room and was turning the desk lamp off when I would tell it to "turn the lights off". This didn't work for me because I REALLY need my alarm clock to work 24/7. So I renamed the socket to "night stand outlet" and now it does not interfere with the lighting and the possibility of missing my alarms. BE CAREFUL what you name it, but name them...this way you don't have to remember which socket number you chose for certain devices. I named one on mine and one on my wife's "phone charger" so we would never turn those off. There is a red led indicator for which sockets are active. If the light is red - you can plug something into it and it will work. If that led is not lit at all at each socket, you need to turn those sockets on through the app (the smart life app works well for this and the google home app also works well for this and immediately recognized it.) My set up was simple - the 1st protector didn't want to read, so I unplugged it, held the button for 5 more seconds and the next time I tried, it worked right away. The 2nd surge protector went in and with no issues. I have named each surge protector differently due to needing to control them based on what's plugged in. I also named all my sockets so that it is simple to figure out which ones I need to use or not - otherwise you have a big list of "outlets" in google home and the smart life app.I have been feeling it for temperature based on others' reviews and have so far not felt heat at all, let alone overheating. I am happy with these currently. Most likely will buy more as needed throughout the house. The extension cord on these is what sold it for me so now, I can plug something in beside my bed vs. moving the entire bed to get to the outlet on the wall - that is OVER now! I am happy with my purchases.
