I recently purchased the TP-Link Tapo Smart Plug with Energy Monitoring and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. I had previously used TP-Link Kasa smart plugs which were rather hit-and-miss, with the company breaking smart home integration functionality in the past. However, I took a chance on the Tapo smart plugs due to a fantastic Black Friday deal and I am glad I did. The app is simply outstanding, it not only measures the energy consumption, but it also calculates the cost based on the price per kWh that you enter. This makes it extremely easy to track and monitor your energy usage. It integrates seamlessly with home automation systems, be it through Alexa or API for developers, allowing you to automate various non-smart devices in order to save energy. I purchased these smart plugs to reduce energy consumption by devices and appliances that waste energy in sleep mode. For example, my TV set and HiFi equipment use 10W of energy, but thanks to the Tapo smart plugs, I was able to automate the process so that the electricity is turned off once the power usage drops below a certain threshold. I also use them to turn off my non-smart bed heating pad in the morning, ensuring that I don't waste energy by leaving it on. Should I need to turn it back on, I can simply use Alexa, which works flawlessly. Additionally, the built-in features are incredibly useful. For example, I use the smart plugs to turn off various lights when the sun sets, with an offset, so that it's not too dark during the dark winter days. The 4-pack is the most economical option and is a smart investment as there are multiple uses for these smart plugs. For instance, you can use one to monitor and turn off your iron if you're worried you may have left it on. The energy consumption of the plugs themselves is minimal, measuring at roughly 0.5W, making it an economical choice for a smart appliance. In conclusion, I would highly recommend the TP-Link Tapo Smart Plug with Energy Monitoring to anyone looking to automate their home and monitor their energy usage. It is an excellent product that integrates seamlessly with home automation systems, is easy to use, and provides accurate and useful information.

Bought these to monitor a bunch of appliances and it works well. The app works well, Android, and even the Washing machine and dryer show accurate results, same as what the washing machine reports. Same for UPS reported usage as the usage from the UPS at the plug.

Great item fast delivery service Great value for money would recommend

Very Nice and love it

I purchased the Tapo P110 Smart Plugs primarily for their 'Away Mode' functionality, and they've proven to be incredibly effective. We needed a solution to have lamps turn on and off on a schedule while we were away for most of the month, to give the realistic impression that someone was in the house. The Tapo P110 handles this perfectly, offering adjustable schedules that are easy to set up via the app. Beyond Away Mode, the scheduling features are remarkably useful for everyday home automation. For example, I use them to automatically turn on our internal security cameras when we leave the house, with the peace of mind that the cameras receive no power while we're inside. You could even integrate geo-fencing (if you wanted to delve into that aspect of smart home automation) to have the cameras activate precisely when your phone leaves a set perimeter. The energy monitoring feature is a definite bonus. It's a nice little utility for seeing exactly how much power your connected devices are consuming. While I personally haven't used it to actively change my habits, it's incredibly insightful for monitoring what your appliances are actually drawing. This data could certainly be valuable for anyone looking to identify energy hogs and reduce their electricity bill. Crucially, I've had no issues with these plugs regarding reliability or connectivity. They've remained consistently connected to our Wi-Fi and responded promptly to commands and schedules. For the price point, I am very happy with them. They're compact enough not to block adjacent sockets, and the Tapo app is intuitive and user-friendly. Overall: The Tapo P110 Smart Plugs are a fantastic choice for anyone looking to enhance their smart home. Their robust 'Away Mode', flexible scheduling, and useful energy monitoring features make them incredibly versatile. Given their reliability and excellent value, they are highly recommended for anyone wanting to add smart control and energy insights to their home appliances.
