TOPGREENER TGWF115PRM Wi-Fi Plug with Energy Monitoring, Smart Outlet, Control Lights and Appliances from Anywhere, No Hub Required, White, Works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant - Amazon Vine

These were so handy for easily turning off and all my Christmas lights! No more crawling beneath the tree to plug and unplug, or going out in cold weather to turn off outside lights. Just a swish of my phone and I was able to turn any of the plugs off or on in seconds. looking forward to finding more uses for them throughout the year.

I bought this primarily to turn on and off pool pumps as well as monitor their energy usage. When I dove into the statistics for energy monitoring I saw my pump is using 2012 mA. That’s 2.012 amps. Volts is 121.3. We know that V*A=Watts. 2.012*121.3 is 245.14 watts. Watts on the app says 146.4. (See pic) So, one of these values is incorrect. I contacted the manufacturer and they said “Currently something is wrong with the calculations, we are working on a solution. I apologize fir the confusion” It took them 2 days to even respond. I have no idea if the kWh is correct since I’m not sure if is based off of watts or volts*amps. I don’t know if any of the numbers are correct since the math says they can’t all be correct. As for the on off functionality it works pretty well. I can control it from my phone. It’s really unfortunate that the energy monitoring does not work though since that’s half the reason I bought it. I can turn my pumps on and off from anywhere though.

The device has the same exact model number as the earlier flashable devices. I believe it still utilizes the ESP8266 but has the new Tuya firmware. Works Ok as a Tuya device.

I bought these to see how much energy my fridge and another appliance was using. These plugs worked good. Now I am currently just using them as a scheduler for my indoor lights. Would by again.

I purchased a two pack, one to do general energy monitoring on any appliance, and one dedicated to charging one of our cars over 110v. Conclusion: Easy to setup, works with Google and Amazon voice assistants, lots of features for the price making it a great value. I really like the hardware (5/5): + Supports 15 amps (allows for a buffer around my cars 12 amp charger) + Energy monitoring + Easy to setup and use. Plug it in, hold the only button for several seconds to put into pairing mode, short presses to turn the switch on and off. + Responsive integration into Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa - Does not remember power state. If you lose power, or unplug the device, the outlet will always default back to the off position. App is good, but could be even better (4/5): + No Subscription + Easy to integrate into Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa + Automation section allows On/Off based on a number of triggers (Sunrise/Sunset, Outside temperature, humidity, weather, another TOPGREENER device, etc.) + Has room management abilities, so I can turn off a whole room instead of just one device using voice assistants. - No random On/Off windows to mimic someone being home - Energy Monitoring only shows Instantaneous, Daily and Monthly totals. No hourly or weekly views. - No IFTTT integration yet (which opens up a lot more options) Notes: - Requires 2.4ghz Wifi - The size is big, and can cover both outlets if used on the bottom. But the product pictures should have given that away. I wouldnt subtract a star for buying exactly whats pictured.

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.

They work well! I was hoping the app allowed you to see all data over time, so as to look for power spikes, but the data collection appears limited to total kilowatts. Also, there doesnt appear to be a way to reset data collected, like if you want to start monitoring a different device.

What I like most about these WiFi enabled smart electrical plugs is that it has all the features that the others have, plus what I really need is to be able to monitor your energy usage. Very helpful when trying to determine if an appliance is starting to go bad, when you see the energy use increases.

If youre looking for plugs that you can flash with Tasmota in order to get them out of the cloud and use them with a platform like Home Assistant, I can confirm that I was able to do it with these, purchased on February 9, 2021 from the TopGreener store here on Amazon. If you need to know how to get started, check out digiblurDIY on YouTube. He pretty much walks you through every step, no opening the unit or soldering involved. I couldnt be happier.

This product was simple to install with the top Greener app. Was very easy to link to Alexa afterwards with the related skill. It responds quickly to smart commands. I have it running a heater in my bedroom oh, and I was able to make it on an automated timer in case it ever got left on.
