BroadLink Smart Plug (NoAPP Version), Mini Wi-Fi Timer Smart Outlet Socket Works with Alexa/Google Home/IFTTT, No Hub Required, Remote Control Anywhere

Ive got this hooked up to a dim/warm light with Alexa so that I dont have to get out of bed at night as Im dozing off and realize the light is still on. Working great still a few months down the line. Install wasnt the easiest in the world but definitely easier than another I had to return. I would recommend this product.

Excelente

Muy fáciles de instalar y programar. También funcionan con 220V aunque sólo diga 110v . Excelentes!!

The product advertise no app, but it still demands you provide an email to register your device through their website. I was wrong to interpret no app as no third party snooping. It is not the manufacturers fault. I was looking for a wifi device that works without registration or setup without through an external website, but it seems this does not exist. It seems rather invasive to have my thermostat or light switch on the internet connected to data systems I do not control.

I have this hooked to my power strip, which supplies my aquarium appliances. I have attached my aquarium light to this exact timer. It works and turns on at the correct and exact time, like down to the seconds, but it is kind of troublesome to use. I have installed the app to use for functionality, and it is a bit overcomplicated in my opinion, like I just want it to turn on at a specific time and off at another time but it does not exactly allow this. It also does not turn off or function correctly in my opinion, as it is meant to turn off at 4:00, but was on at ~5:40 PM on two consecutive days after setting it up. Edit: I have decreased my rating of the product as it is hard to use with the NoAPP functionality. Perhaps I am setting it up wrong, but it never turns off correctly, which can get plain irritating. Perhaps there are better products, but for now, I appreciate the mechanical timers more.

My advice to not tech savvy users: Read carefully and be patient, or just get someones help instead. These are easy to set up if you have some decent skills. I just followed the instructions in Alexa and set em up in 5 minutes, even though its my first step into the smart home world. I used one for my coffee maker. Awesome. A second one to get my laptop switching between battery and electricity (A simple routine to turn on/off every 2 hours), for the sake of battery life spam. Used the third one with the light of my daughters room so I can go to bed and it doesnt stay on all night. Soooo many different uses, Ill get more in the future.

Setup was not as easy as other products, also the scheduling was not 100% intuitive but after that it works and no complaints.

I got this for a timer for a plant light it is a little confusing on the app but once it’s done then it’s perfect. Doesn’t take up too much space on the plug either.

I wanted to like this product. After all, Im into Smart Home stuff and have quite a collection of working smart things (even one of those Smarthings). First of all this was advertised as Not needing another app to clutter up my cell phone, but step 2 of the installation instructions (after powering on the unit) was to download the app to my phone. WHAT? Well, ok I can deal with that for the other promised benefits of easy to install and all. Unfortunately, it wasnt that either. I tried all of my tricks to getting recalcitrant smart devices to tow the mark, but could not get them to even respond to any connection request. Fed up, I sent them packing back to Amazon (thank you to Amazon for their really good return procedures). I may have been having a bad day, but these things were not ready for prime time. Save yourself some time, money and frustration and get something else.

Super easy to install! Works with my alexa device so i can control it anywhere in the house (or while im away!)
