Pros

The s40 lite is more than just a smart plug; it's a gateway to a world of automation and convenience. Ease of use, powerful functionality, and ability to seamlessly integrate with smart home platforms make it an excellent choice for anyone looking to ...  Read More

Sonoff smart plugs work perfectly with hue and flic. They work with hue hub through the hue app. They also act as zigbee routers (range extenders) the shed is approximately 125 feet (or more) from the garage which has zigbee router.

When you plug them in for the first time they enter pairing mode and my homeassistant instance automatically finds them and pairs with them. In hubitat’s extensive “device type” drop down list for your just-added plug, change “ device type” from “ dev...  Read More

Sonoff s31 works great with my samsung smartthings hub. No need to add the sonoff app, it works native in smarthings. Then, re-downloaded these two add-on, reconfigured and the smart plug worked as expected. No issues adding the devices to samsung sma...  Read More



Cons

Upc sticker identifies it as the zigbee version, the box itself indicates that it is a wifi smart plug. I have no intention of allowing a faulty device to ruin my wife's little trees, in order to prove to a vendor that a 9 dollar item is faulty.

Sonoff products are usually good but these plugs are a huge let down. They are mislabeled. Very poor customer service, in my humble opinion. After some research, these are not ul listed.

Quick pairing with a smartthings’s v2 hub, reliable use.


Has reduced short cycling and the dehumidifiers constantly turning on and off every 5 minutes to sample the air.


Each one plugged in, smarthings app scanned and found it in a couple seconds.

Price


Although i did take one star off for the blinking led, value for money is exceptionally high!


Exactly what i was looking for and saved some money getting off brand.


For the price these function as well as any other.

Shipping


Paired quickly and effortlessly into the zigbee network and operates as intended.

Packaging/appearance


Bought these to automate the christmas tree and other items that were on display in our large window.

Competitiveness


I like the speed that it reacts, seems to be quicker than the other brands in my system


This is certainly a much better bargain than the hue outlet and i really can't see any advantage in buying one hue outlet for t...  Read More


I was using this with "home assistant" but tried sonoff's ewelink app, this also failed to link up with the device.


On further research, i found the other brands of smart plugs i own operate similarly, as do most* of my smart switches, so gene...  Read More

    They turn onoff multiple times a day on a schedule or manually


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I’ve only had one issue where one of them needed to be repaired to the hub an easy task and that was after a hub update so i can’t definitely say why that occurred


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I didnt need a zigbee plug but i did need to beef up the zigbee network in an area of my home that had only battery powered zigbee devices that didnt relay the signal like 34mains34 powered devices do


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They do work great as switched power too from my brief tinkering but im not currently utilizing them for their intended purpose


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Only downside as range is not the best it will struggle to talk to my hub a few rooms down so i have this set up in the hallway and will need to add some more for better coverage


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Id imagine that reporting saps a fair bit of power 247365 from multiple outlets


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I didnt want to use their app because i have a smart things hub to control it
