TP-Link Tapo Matter Outdoor Smart Plug 2 Individual outlets IP65 Weather Resistance Works with Apple Home Alexa Google

I'm extremely impressed with this Matter outdoor smart outlet. From the moment I plugged it in, the setup process was incredibly smooth and simple, easily one of the quickest smart home additions I've ever made. A standout feature for me is having two distinct outlets, which can each be controlled completely independently. This level of flexibility is fantastic for managing different outdoor lights or decorations without needing multiple devices. The fact that it operates using Matter over Wi-Fi is a huge plus, ensuring broad compatibility and a straightforward connection. What truly makes this device a winner in my book is its seamless integration with Home Assistant. It connected without a hitch and has been performing perfectly, allowing me to manage my outdoor setup exactly as I want. There's no need to download or use any additional manufacturer's app; everything works directly through Home Assistant, which is a major convenience. If you're looking for a dependable, easy to configure outdoor smart outlet, especially one that plays nice with Home Assistant, I highly recommend this one. I'm very happy with this purchase.

This smart plug works great with HomeKit. I have some outdoor lights that plug into it and it works flawlessly. Having two separate outlets that are independently controlled is a plus! I have this included in an automation routine with other devices and it is perfect! Easy to setup and use, and there is no delay between command and operation. It is holding up nicely to the outdoor elements as well! Read more

These things are heavy duty and easy to use. Bought two to use indoors because they are rated to handle large appliances and they're elegant in form. Well made, heavy body and cord, clean appearance with solid buttons to control each of two outlets directly or via the Tapo app, Very easy for even a layman to connect to the internet and setup and plenty sensitive to receive full bars even when set behind a metal appliance. I use one to turn on and off a Bunn commercial coffeemaker to save energy and another for a 150w 5-channel amplifier that doesn't have signal sensing capability. Has worked like a charm, on/off commands via the app whether on a schedule or manually entered on the phone are instantaneous as is status feedback. Only possible improvement would be to make them in the US; otherwise very happy. They are a wise investment to reduce severely inflated electricity costs and manage equipment that isn't close at hand. Read more

I got this smart plug for some off grid property that is solar powered. I use star link for the internet and got this so we can turn on the fridge and a few other things before we get there. When we hit the on button from 300 miles away it turns on instantly. The instructions and clear and easy. The switch works flawlessly so far. So much so that I'm going to order a couple more right as soon as I finish this review. Read more

Works very well for over a year now. It's a little sensitive to weak wifi, so make sure you have a strong signal outside where this accessory will be installed. But otherwise the homekit setup, scheduling and everyday use is flawless. Great little smart outdoor plug, definitely recommend. Read more

I have other TP-Link Tapo devices, both indoor and outdoor. This plug has worked flawlessly. This plug is in my garage, but I do have this same plug outside, and it too has worked flawlessly for some time. You do need the Tapo app, which you can get from the major app stores. Setup is straightforward using the app on your phone. It only takes a few minutes. You do need internet service and a wifi connection. Once the plug is set up, functionality can be controlled via the Tapo app. The plug outlets do have covers for those times when an outlet may. not be in use. They are somewhat loose-fitting, which I don't like. However, Tapo recommends the plug be installed with the outlets facing down, which prevents weather from entering the outlets. I've been very satisfied with all my TP-Link Tapo devices. I would buy this plug again if needed. Read more
