Works as promised, but only within the Alexa ecosystem of smart devices.
5 Stars
Works as promised, but only within the Alexa ecosystem of smart devices.
Disclaimer: I received this product for no charge through the Vine program but pay income tax on the retail value of the item.This weatherproof outdoor plug is ideal for remotely controlling outdoor lighting, fans, or any other appliance that you might use outdoors. It would be especially useful for holiday lighting where you can use the Alexa app to remotely program start and stop times without having to go outside in the cold, rain, or snow.Physically, the device is constructed well. The receptacles have separate silicone rubber covers to protect against water entry. The covers seal shut, but they feel a little loose in the closed position. The manual states the device has an IP65 rating which means it is protected from dust and water jets from any direction. To achieve that water resistance, the manual says the plug must be 4.7 feet above the ground. That seems a bit impractical as most outdoor receptacles are near the ground.The device can be controlled manually with switches located on the plug, but to use it as a smart device it must be used within the Alexa ecosystem. It will not work with Google Home, Apple HomeKit, or any other smart device app other than Alexa. If that is acceptable to you, this plug will work well.Setting up the device is easy. The only way to set up the device is to go to the Alexa App on your smartphone or tablet, select Devices, and add a new Amazon Basics device. Among the choices you are presented with is an Outdoor plug. Once you have chosen that device the app asks you to scan the QR code printed on the plug or in the user manual, but not the QR code on the box. Scanning the code then gets the device registered on your Wi-Fi Network and it is ready to go.Although setting up the device was easy, I couldn't immediately control the devices with the Alexa app the first time I set it up. I had to unplug and plug the device in a couple of times before I had voice and app control over the two receptacles. That could be frustrating to someone who hasn't previously used smart devices and discovered their occasionally finicky behavior.The two receptacles can be controlled independently. By default, they will appear as "plug 1" and "plug 2" on your list of devices on the Alexa app. However, if you have other Amazon smart plugs already on your network, they will rename themselves to "plug 3" and "plug 4" or whatever number is next in line. Of course, you are free to rename the receptacles as you please.In summary, this outdoor smart plug works exactly as promised as long as you remain within the Alexa ecosytem of smart devices.
