Smart Plug Mini 15A, WiFi Smart Outlet Works with Alexa, Google Home Assistant, Remote Control with Timer Function, No Hub Required, ETL Certified, 2.4G WiFi Only, 4-Pack

I bought my first Echo (the original) in February 2016 and (anticipating smart home use) ordered a couple of then available WiFi plugs at the same time. Those were from an American company and are still in service. The problem was that they were too large and they did not have high wattage capacity. I recently bought an air fryer but, while it was not cheap, it had no on/off switch and each time I used it I was obliged to unplug it...very uncool design. So I bought one of these switches to use as an on/off switch for that appliance. The challenge was finding a WiFi switch that would handle the current. The fryer is rated at 1700 watts..yeah, I know thats not current...and these switches are rated at 1875. So I took the plunge. I bought a pair and I use the other one with a radiator-type space heater in my den (1500 watts). They are both working very well with these switches. But thats not all, the switches were the easiest to set up of the (now 15) switches I have in the house AND they automatically connect to Echo/Alexa. They can be switched on/off physically by pushing a button, or with the phone app, or by commands to Alexa...Perfect !! So of all the switches Ive bought in the past four years, these are (surprisingly) the best...also much cheaper than their domestic counterparts. If my opinion of them should change, I will make an addendum to this review, but at this point I am totally satisfied...great value, ease of use, AND high wattage capacity. 7/8/21 Addendum: Just bought #3. All of the above still applies. Im using it on a large fan which has high start-up current but moderate running current. The plug is working just fine with it...both from iPhone & from Alexa. Still the best value in a plug that does not require a separate HUB to function.

Product was very easy to both connect to our network and to our smart speaker. We had 1 of the 8 plugs we purchased fail to install, but one email to the manufacturer and a replacement was at our door within 3 business days. Highly recommend the company and this product! Steven was our support rep, and he was amazing!

If you are not tech savvy and you have a dual band router you may never get these plugs to work. Once I got the correct 2.4ghz wifi connection to show, I downloaded the Tuya Smart App (The one from HBN never worked) and from there it was easy. I give it three stars only because it was not easy from the start.

Ok. After we got our tree up the power button ended up being at the back of the creed. Made It very difficult to turn lights on and off . Decided to buy another power plug to plug lights in so we could use Alexa to turn lights on smd off. It worked just like we expected. We were already using one for our living room light. Do It only made sense to use It for the Christmas tree lights lights also. Worked like a charm. My grandchildren could put the lights on and off. When they wanted.

Once I got these working, they are great. I got 3 out of 4 working. The problem is when pairing, the light is suppose to flash, but if it is it isnt noticeable. On two of them, I said it was flashing even though I could not see it and I managed to get them hooked up. On the last one, I finally gave up after trying over 25 times. Why do most of these things say, it will flash blue, or green, but it is usually in red. Another problem with all smart plugs, why cant you design for two to work on one wall receptacle.

I dont like how these only work with Alexa and its not easy to get programed...but also, Im a little technology challenged sometimes. But the ones Ive got to use with Geeni work much easier.

One in the 2-pack worked and the other didn’t. I emailed the company BN-Link and they got back to me in less than an hour with the tracking number for the replacement. FYI, Amazon had the wrong contact information of try and get support. The correct website is bn-link.com.

I just wanted something to turn on and off all our window Christmas candles with the touch of one button and these work perfectly. Very easy to understand and program using only WIFI in our case, havent tried the Alexa integration.

I had a problem with the set up program regarding getting it to recognize the blinking light status. ( you have to touch the text for “confirm light is blinking” this allows the next button activation and the tethering process to continue. Kudos to Darren and Diana from support. They were great at following up with me to clear this up allowing me to program my plugs

Havent been able to use with 5G internet
