Pros & Cons
Pros
Ik highly recommend it. I love that the app makes it easy to control the device and has some powerful features like grouping devices together.
Meross plugs are very easy to configure with the matter. G and then configure. I have my fan plugged into this device. The app is really simple and easy to setup.
The only downside is that they stick out from the wall further than the outlet. We are using for a lamp that can not take a hue bulb and also for outdoor holiday lights on our porch.
Smart wi-fi plug mini is no exception. Turn off your mesh network, configure the plug to work with the separate router.
Cons
Judging by some other internet feedback, it appears these are just not reliable with the kit.
