TOPGREENER Smart Mini Wi-Fi Plug with Energy Monitoring, Mini Smart Outlet, Control Lights and Appliances from Anywhere, No Hub Required, Works with Alexa and Google Assistant, TGWF115PQM, 4-Pack

Works well. Shows amp, watt, voltage, and total kw used. Subtract one star because it only works on 2.4 ghz network. Had to find my old router. Reset user name and password, set up 2.4 ghz access point. Hooked up to my current router. Then use a old phone connect to the 2.4 ghz network. Then it worked.

I was looking high and low for a timer for my pool pump and most of them would not handle the amperage that the pump draws. I purchased a pair of these and was really surprised that it will start and stop my pool pump at the times that I select. It even tells me how much power is being used by the day and for the month along with past months.

There are a few things I like about these plugs. I liked the power monitoring feature, although the app does not work correctly on my iPad. It did work on my android phone. I did not have any trouble pairing and adding the devices. However, there are two big issues that make these outlets a poor choice for me. First of all, they do not remember the state they were in prior to a power outage. If an outlet is on before there is a power outage, it should remember and return to an on state when the power returns. The same if it is off. These don’t. If the power goes out, when it comes back the outlets are off and will stay off until you turn them back on using either the app or the button on the outlet. This is a problem if you don’t realize there was a power outage and there is something plugged into it that really needs to stay on, like a mini fridge. That’s exactly what happened to me. I had my mini freezer plugged into this so I could track how much power it was using. At some point during the day the power blinked and the outlet shut off. The next day I went out to grab something and all the food in the freezer was thawed and I had to toss most of it. Not good. My Kasa outlets don’t do that, they come back on automatically when the power comes back, and they also will complete scheduled tasks whether or not the Internet is up. These outlets will not. I didn’t think that was a huge deal because I have my Kasa outlets for things that need scheduled tasks to function reliably. But honestly, why pay almost the same price for outlets that don’t have as good functionality? But anyway, having to check your outlets every few hours to make sure they’re still on when you live in an area where there are fairly frequent power blinks is totally a dealbreaker for me.

Great smart plugs, works perfectly with Google Home mini. Use one to make sure my hair straightener is off when I leave the house! Took off a star because they are large, and take up two outlets for one.

Arrived quickly. Downloaded iPhone App, discovered plug and came on-line quickly. Alexa service could immediately control. The iPhone app works well as a remote control, too. Response time is very fast. Easy to move and re-configure, change the name, etc. I ordered as a stop gap to run a sump-pump with a faulty switch - which is why I got the heavy duty plug - and it worked exactly as I had hoped.

Love that it doesnt cover a second outlet! I dont use the TopGreener app but Kenhub or something instead and it works well. I wish I cold just have a widget to tap to turn on/off switches without it opening the app again or if I can have it for less than 4-5 smart plugs (the widget is big). I havent tried linking it to Alexa yet because Im lazy and its in a different room. I use it for a light so I can get into bed without tripping over things and dying.

Nice solid plugs that still work with Tuya Convert for OTA flashing of Tasmota firmware as of 07/01/2021. They are a bit big, but two do fit in a duplex receptacle perfectly. I bought the 4-pack that came as 2/2-packs

At first these worked great. I used them to monitor a grow tent to see how much electricity it was using and to time the light cycles. It worked for a few weeks but then the light timer just decided to stop working and killed my plants. I even chopped it up to a power surge of some sort and added a surge protector and started over. Then it happened again with no disruption in power. These are trash unfortunately, can’t trust them to simply turn off power on a timed schedule. And they are a pain to connect to the WiFi which adds another level of annoyance so my advice is to look elsewhere.

Easily and quickly flashable to an open-source and very configurable Tasmota firmware with basically no effort (besides having a Linux computer and a smartphone) as of 2021-06-06, model number TGWF115PQM 2007Ver1.0.0 and FCC ID ZZH-WF10FPM. Internal module is a TYWE2S according to the submitted FCC documentation, and supports 10 amps of current which is plenty for my needs. Cant comment on accuracy because I still need to calibrate them and evaluate their performance/drift over time, but I imagine it is perfectly fine for most folks needs.

I liked the first one so much that I bought another because I liked the energy use monitoring and how many scheduling and integration features the app provides. And then realized I had enough other IoT devices like this lately that maybe it was time to put them on a separate dedicated Wi-Fi guest network on my router that cant see the rest of my sensitive internal network … just in case the device mfr doesnt do a great job of security testing as you read a lot these days. The bad news first? - If you need to change the plugs Wi-Fi settings, you have to reset it - and you lose all your schedules and have to set them all back up again. Interestingly, my energy use history was retained as its likely linked back in the cloud to the unique MAC or device ID. Why the schedules couldnt also be retained I consider a bug. - The phone app MUST be on the same network to discover the plug. You cant tell the plug to use a different guest SSID network. So you first have to switch your phone Wi-Fi to that dedicated network you want the plug on and THEN also have to make sure that guest network temporarily allows all devices to see each other or the app times out. - At least the Android app is a bit quirky. It takes several taps on the plug icon on the main homepage to select it despite plug readily working. Annoying. The good news? - Once the plug is on your dedicated IoT network and you switch your phone back to the full Wi-Fi network, the plug still works and RESPONSIVE too. So apparently the phone app no longer needs a direct network connection and everything bounces from TopGreeners cloud servers quite quickly!
