We asked Alexa to turn on the light from a nearby room. We wanted to test the range of the smart plug, so we moved it into a different room than the Amazon Echo. To test the timing feature of the Amazon Smart Plug, we plugged the lantern into the device and said, “Alexa, turn on the First Plug in 20 minutes.” In precisely 20 minutes, the lantern turned on. We used the plug with a novelty lantern and a TV, and both worked as expected. The plug automatically connected to the Wi-Fi, and within just a few seconds, it was obeying voice commands. All we had to do was plug in the device, open the app, navigate to the “connect a device” page and select the Amazon Smart Plug. Setting up the Amazon smart plug was very easy however, we already had the Alexa app installed on our smartphones. The Amazon Smart Plug is a user-friendly device that works with Alexa to provide voice control of electronics without needing a home hub.
Installation is easy just insert a smart plug into an outlet, and you can use voice commands or an app to turn ordinary home items on or off. How does a smart plug work?Ī smart plug is a cost-effective way to use smart technology with various electronic devices in your home. Luckily, both of these smart plugs served their purpose well.
Our aim was to find a smart plug with reliable performance that worked with our smartphones. We wanted to put two popular smart plugs to the test: the Amazon Smart Plug and the WeMo Smart Plug. There are several smart plugs out there that allow you to turn everyday electronics into smart devices. Many people want the convenience of smart devices at home but don’t want to purchase a hub like Amazon Echo or Google Home.
