Enbrighten 55256 Z-Wave Plus Smart Receptacle, Works with Alexa, Google Assistant, Tamper-Resistant, 1 ZWave 1 Always On Outlet Hub Required, White

There work fine with my zwave system. Disappointed they both failed in just under 4 years. Triggered on and off once a day.

Ive got about a dozen of these 55256 receptacles in my business. Every single one has failed at least once, and I just finished replacing three more that failed as of last week. (08/10/21) These 55256 receptacles last about 1 year before they internal relay fails and they start randomly clicking and fail to respond to Zwave commands. E-mail sent to GE/Jasco about replacement of failed outlets is never answered. Over the last 5 years I have collected enough of these failed 55256 Z-Wave Plus Smart Receptacles to fill a standard pillowcase halfway, and that will come in handy should I ever encounter a Jasco IoT engineer in the real world. If youre given the choice between buying a 55256 receptacle and hitting yourself in the hand with a brick. Find a nice brick.

Bought this act as a z-wave repeater / extender and extra smart device for controlling a security light. Found it easy to fit and link to our Smarthings hub, and it has helped to stabilised comms with some of our outlying smart devices. Setting up the app was a breeze.

Connected right up with my SmartThings hub and has been working great. The only thing I dont like is that this is a TR receptacle which Im not a big fan of because of the difficulty in plugging things in.

I replaced an older Smarthome technology with this unit. It has the added benefit that off means off. Ive had issues with some smart on/off modules where they leak current when ostensibly off. Thats a real problem if the load is an LED light as they will glow at a low level. In a bedroom thats no bueno as it disturbs my sleep. This unit is fast and when off leaks no power. Very happy!

Works as advertised, but I had to go buy a wall plate since none was included.

Somewhat difficult to follow the included instructions. The diagrams are accurate but the wording is vague. Make sure to get the add-on switch if you are doing it as a three way and read it carefully so that you don’t connect wrong and ruin the switch.

I replaced nearly 20 outles in my house with these and the smart switches. They worked wonderfully for awhile, but then about a year and some change in two of them just died. You could hear the little solenoid inside clicking constantly. Now several more years later and I have had to replace all of them. These things are terrible. DO NOT BUY. Several of them died after power failures from the electric company. When the power came back on, they were just clicking. Several of them died while not even in use. Most of my outlets are completely unused, so the failures are not attributable to anything even being plugged in at the time of failure.

I have installed one of these outlets in almost every room in my house and like the ability to automate lamps that are plugged into them using my Z-Wave hub and its integration with Google Home. I run timed automations via the hub and its software (Trane Home) and use Google voice commands to turn lights on and off. The outlets generally work well and are reliable (unlike some of the more portable plug-in modules which often are unavailable right now according to Google). However, beware a power outage! I have now had my third unit fail after a power outage (which are increasingly frequent here in Texas). Im assuming the surge when power is restored fries the internal relay. At now nearly $40 each, these units are fast becoming more costly than is warranted by their convenience and unobtrusive appearance.

Had little trouble paring this to my system...apparently I had a gap in my wireless web. Once I got it paired, it has worked flawlessly over the past several months.
