HBN Smart Plug 15A WiFi Bluetooth Outlet Extender Dual Socket Plugs Works with Alexa Google Home Assistant Remote

I’m really impressed with the HBN Smart Plug 15A WiFi Outlet. Setup was incredibly easy—just plug it in, connect through the app, and it was ready to go in minutes. Even if you’re not tech-savvy, this is one of the simplest smart plugs to get up and running. It responds quickly, works flawlessly with my routines, and the connection stays stable. I love being able to turn things on and off remotely and set schedules without any hassle. The plug itself feels sturdy and well-made, and the 15A capacity is great for heavier appliances. If you want a smart plug that’s easy, reliable, and user-friendly, this one is a winner! Highly recommend. 🏡✨ Read more

Easy to use and still working a year later. The app is simple and easy to create different schedules with multiple plugs. I bought these to run Christmas lights and they are now starting their second year and going strong. I have one in the garage that sets there all summer long in Florida and continues to operate Read more

Bear with me, and I’ll explain four stars when in the specifics I rate as three stars. For a Internet / Bluetooth integrated home automation switch that does not require any mainstream voice activated device; these are fabulous. 2.4GHz WiFi, a smartphone or tablet on the same network, and your good to go. These work great, the app is simple enough to use or as complex as you may require. I now have eight of these, with six in use, and two that I haven’t found a spot for yet (bought in the 2/pack option as it is the most economical at the time). My initial purchase, with NetGear wireless router was easy to set up with the Tulia app. But this was an old router and we were having other issues, so I replaced it with a Linksys. This is where my issues with this product begin. You CANNOT just change network connection devices, the plugs have to be removed from the old one and added to the new one. Also, the first four I bought worked with the Tulia app, the second purchase of four more will not. I had to change to the companies other app, SmartLife. Same layout, same features, just a different name in the surface; yet, obviously, different programmatically. As I had named each plug, and each individual socket, changing apps and routers was a giant pain. Honestly, this didn’t take a long time, but it’s 30-45 minutes wasted for lack of thought. And longer wasted renaming and setting back up the schedules I had created. Once configured, these things are awesome! 1 outside for Christmas Lights (at the time I’m writing this) 1 in the front room for the tree 2 in the living room for standup lamps on opposite sides of the room 1 in the bedroom for night stand lamps 1 in the back bedroom for decorations All of the Christmas lights are in a group, with a schedule to come on twenty minutes before sunset (local time by location) and go off at 2230. My wife night stand lamp comes on and goes off at a set time, so she doesn’t have to turn on the overhead light when going to bed. The living room lights are set to come on thirty minutes before sunset, and off 2230. And a second schedule to come on before we get up in the morning, and go off after we leave for work. Plus, these are on different schedules for the weekend vs week days. These are perfect for giving the house a lived in look of people being home, even when we’re not. We don’t usually stay out late, so we come in to a lit home. Now that things are set up, I can control the switch or individual socket from anywhere in the world that I have internet service. Or they’ll run their schedule for the days set. *My MAJOR Gripe* The switch in the master bedroom has two lamps, both with low wattage LED bulbs. They will not both stay on at the same time. I don’t know if this is due to an overload and auto shutoff safety feature, or I have a bad switch. But I can turn both on, and a few minutes later they shut off. Turn one on, and it stays on until scheduled off time or manually turned off. Read more

I bought these to replace some older other brand units that had gotten wet or otherwise failed after many years. These were easy to setup and work great. I was able to move a few around where I had two in one outlet and now use the double and reuse the two units elsewhere. These are great for the bedroom where you have a light on each side of the bed instead of using two single units. I was able to add them to my Tuya app which controls all the different brands I have and Alexa finds the new devices immediately. Read more

I landed on this product for three reasons: 1) the price, 2) the reviews, 3) the fact that some smart plugs came with 2 outlets. I bought four of the 2-outlet type, and 4 of the single outlet type. I also bought a 2-outlet outdoor smart plug. All 3 orders are on their way back to Amazon as I type this out. I've been an IT network engineer for almost 30 years, so I'm very technical. I bought these products to be able to turn on/off my Christmas decorations outside, as well as 12 window candle lights that have been working just fine with RF switch plugs. I wanted a solution whereby I could just hit a button on my phone and turn all candle lights and outside lights off at once, rather than going room-to-room hitting a button on a remote. I also wanted to be able to see if the lights were on while I'm not at home, so a cloud app was a necessity (I'm able to monitor the temperature of my upstairs and downstairs HVAC systems this way, as well as my outdoor cameras, which I love!). My WiFi router is currently operating in dual-mode (a.k.a Smart Connect). That is to say that it broadcasts a SSID for both 2.4Ghz b/g/n and 5Ghz a/n/ac 802.11 spectrums. So if something only transmits/receives in 2.4Ghz, like these smart plugs, it will accept those connections. I have a wireless AP in my closet downstairs, and a separate AP upstairs. All wireless devices in my house have no issues with signal strength at 5Ghz, so naturally 2.4Ghz is never a problem since that signal strength reaches further. My transmit power is also set to 100% for both spectrums. The set up for these devices is pretty straightforward. The instructions for all devices were identical and not very easy to read, so I just watched videos online. The app did not have a selection for my outdoor smart plug, so I had to take a guess on that one (again a video helped). Now here's where things got unpredictable and sporadic. Units that were farthest away from my AP, but in doors, seemed to connect very easily and stay connected. 2 units in rooms neighboring the closet (where the AP is) constantly showed "offline". These were clearly defective because I moved them into a room where it had clear line of sight, 10 feet from the 2nd AP, and they still showed "offline". The outdoor unit, which sat only 15 feet from the closet, just outside my front door, barely was able to initialize much less stay on the network and respond when I tried to interact with it. Some devices showed "offline" but would then come "online" when I walked into the room. I ended up spending at least an hour or two trying to get these devices to consistently show online, but just gave up in the end. I didn't bother with support, because I already wasted enough time on something that should not be that complicated. Seriously! They make thermostats, refrigerators, cameras and garage door openers that communicate better over 2.4Ghz or even 5Ghz, and can be accessed from home or across the country. But for some reason they can't do that for these smart plugs!!?? These were made cheap for cheap reasons. Buy these if you only have 1 or 2 devices, keep your AP on some table out in the open near those devices, and only operate them from your phone while in your home and maybe you'll get what you pay for!

Great item. My son-in-law has two lights in his living room with un-switched outlets up near the ceiling. With these two units he can now keep the lights the he put near them plugged in and no longer has to stand on the furniture to plug them in so they can be used. He just has to tell Google to turn them on and off. Read more
