Sengled Smart Plug Works with Alexa, Amazon Smart Plug Bluetooth Mesh, Alexa Plug Smart Outlet Remote Control, 15A Smart Socket, 1800W, Timer & Schedule, FCC Certified, No Hub Required, 2-Pack

I now have the T-Mobile Home Internet. This is 5Ghz and my Echo Dot Alexa stopped recognizing my 2.4Ghz smart plugs. I ordered a Broadline 5Ghz plug from Amazon and had to send it back after trying a dozen times to get my Echo Dot Alexa to recognize it. I finally bought a Sengled Bluetooth Smart Plug Compatible with Alexa. Plugged it in, told Alexa to discover device. In about a minute later Alexa told me she found the device (called it a switch rather than a plug). Alexa then told me how to use it. After I plugged my lamp into the device and turned on the lamp, I told Alexa to turn off the switch. It turned off! I then told Alexa to turn on the switch. It turned on. I then changed the name to Plug via the Alexa app, to be the same as my deleted 2.4 plug. Remember, this Sengled device attaches to the Echo via Bluetooth, not the internet; so, you need to be within Bluetooth distance, less than 30 feet or so. Very cool, very easy to install and very highly rated by me!!

Great wife and I are 80 and any kind of help is appreciated

Good job

I have always been wary of the connectivity of these items, having lost money in the past, but with this one, it has worked perfectly. when the electric power goes out and come back on, it doesnt trip.

I bought these plugs because I wanted ones that didnt need its own app but would connect directly with Alexa. The first plug worked fine but Alexa does not recognize or discover the remaining three plugs. Troubleshooting suggests downloading the Sengled app. Well, thats exactly what I didnt want to do. So unless I can still return them, theyre going to the garbage.

So far so good easy to install and works as it says. I would buy more if needed

Works as advertised but once you set it up with one cellphone you can’t detect it and connect with another.

For a pretty techie person, I found myself struggling to get these installed. Finally gave up and sent them back. Too confusing, too many steps, too many additional apps for my phone, and I just went ahead with the more expensive but easily installed Alexa plug.

perfect integration - took 2 minutes

I wouldnt consider these to be smart. Cant control them away from home or set a timer without the Alexa
