TOPGREENER Kalide Dimmer Light Switch, LED Dimmer Switch, Full Range Dimming, Single Pole/3-Way, 120VAC, 60Hz, 300W LED/CFL, Neutral Wire Not Required, Wall Plate Included, Black

I suggest you thoroughly test out each unit as soon as you get it. One way to do that is to use an old 3-prong cord with plug to attach directly to the terminals. Using such an apparatus you can plug it in near your wifi and confirm it all works before going through the trouble of installing it in outlet box.The device and the app work well... *if* the device works...DEFECTIVE UNITSOf the 6 units I've purchased, one was completely defective - couldn't be paired with wifi at all (the button that you use to pair with just did nothing - although it could turn the unit on and off).Another unit has a defective "on light", that is, when you use the button to locally turn on the outlet, it doesn't illuminate - but it works in all other respects. My experience is a 1 in 3 defect rate so far with units purchased 3 different times and that's why I have dropped it down to 3 stars.ADDITIONAL OBSERVATIONSThe light that illuminates when the powered outlet is on is quite dim. That's a good thing in my opinion, it means you can use it in a bedroom and not annoy with bright lights. Note that only one of the two outlets is controlled by wifi (the bottom one).It does make a not-subtle (but not loud) clicking sound when you turn it on or off... it might wake a light sleeper.I do wish that it also had external contacts for the switched section... so that I could, e.g. use it to turn on and off a ceiling fan on that circuit. I'd also like to see a unit that is a dimmable outlet, e.g. for string lights.It's not particularly hard to set it up to be controlled via Google Home or Amazon Alexa - which is good, otherwise hunting for the app to turn an outlet on and off would be quite the pain. In the app, however, you can set up a schedule.Curiously the controlled outlet is labeled "Smart Meter" - not sure why. I see no evidence that it actually has the ability to calculate and report the current load.EXAMPLE USES1. I have one of these outside (in a covered box) to turn on and off a fountain on a schedule.2. Another one is in my garage to turn off (and back on) the wifi router that covers the corner of my house. This one is a bit tricky because it can't be paired with the wifi it's controlling - and the whole reason the wifi is there is to extend coverage to the far side of my house. It would be better if there was an "inching" function that worked in reverse of the normal way... turn off for 1 second and then back on.3. Another controls plugs in our hutch and living room for seasonal decorations.4. I'm adding another to control the outdoor string lights... but it occurs to me that a wifi switch would be better because the string lights are dimmable.FINAL CONCLUSIONSI have a variety of different wifi controlled devices in my home... unfortunately that means a variety of additional apps so that each different manufacturer's device will work. That is quite a pain!I'd recommend these highly if they didn't have such a high defect rate because they do seem well made, and in my house, at least, have been quite reliable.

Initially purchased this for my mother's house, she hated how the WiFi plug had her one stand pushed out to far. Figured I would test it first to see how well they worked. Next thing I know purchased 12 of them and still didn't give my mom one.Have to say, this product works great. I use the usage meter since I've been working from home to measure how much electricity my home office is using. Configuration is very easy. The "Auto" mode takes about a minute to find the device, and connect it to your wireless.Have decorative lights plugged into them, as well as lights that we don't have easy access to the manual switches.Only use the Topgreener app only for the initial configuration, and use the Alexa app for everything else.I've replaced my outlet that I use for my Halloween & Christmas decorations to one of these outlets (yes it's off a GFCI outlet), cannot wait for the holidays to see how well it works for my decorations.

Beautiful

These install as easily as any conventional receptacle. They do take up the width and height of a full gang enclosure so make sure you have the space for it before wiring it up (ie the gang box is not malformed or overly crowded). One thing of note is that it doesn't monitor usage at the leads. Instead it monitors usage on only the smart switched outlet. This means that whatever is plugged into the always on outlet will not be monitored by the application. If you wanted to monitor the total power consumption of the full unit this is not a possibility with this unit. These ship with 3 colors of face plates (white/black/greyish) but only one color wall plate (white). The Wi-Fi function and switching functions will work without a ground present so if you have an older home and there is no ground in your leg they will still function as intended. Setup with-in the app is a breeze and if you wait too long to interact with the outlet and it exits pairing mode then you can long press the manual switch button on the face of the unit to re-enter pairing mode. These fit well for my needs but with them only monitoring 1 of 2 outlets they may not be a match for yours. For the price I am hard pressed to find any complaints and am happy I purchased these instead of a more expensive brand.

Pleased with the product. It was my first time to install a wall socket but it was a breeze with this product. I easily connected to it and saw my energy usage. Too bad that only the bottom socket has energy monitoring, it would have been nice if both socket has.

Completamente lo que esperaba, les puse tasmota y funionan perfecto en homeassitant

Bought this for my garage door for security reasons. Criminals drive thru areas using universal remotes looking for doors that open. I've set this to shut off at 11:00 pm and come back on at 6:00 am. The app works great. Highly recommend..Installation was a bit tough. Receptacle is deeper than normal and you need an extender for the box. Bought one at Home Depot.

Works with the smartlife app which is a big plus for me

Takes a bit of electrical knowledge to install, but be mindful of how much room is required in your current electrical box. These switches are at least 2x the size of conventional 3-way switches. After installation, works as expected. The energy monitoring is wonderful. I have found a couple of energy hungry components that were using much more power than rated by manufacturer. I now use these products judiciously.

I've used other smart home automation devices before. None have matched the quality of the TopGreener products. I will always recommend using a qualified electrician for any electrical installations. But I can say that, installation is a breeze if you are handy. I was sceptical about the App, but the interface works Amazing! So many automation settings to play with. Zones, scenes, schedules, timers, the list goes on. Works great Google assistant! I'm lazy, SO this is Awesome! LolAnyway, I will be changing my entire home to the TopGreener products. They have got this down to a science and I for one, Love it. I will never have to leave the couch again! LOL

This review is more for home automation enthusiasts that prefer to do things the way they want, and not how manufacturer's want. This product works awesome when flashed with third party software such as Tasmota. This allows local control and no longer need to use the manufacturer's cloud service / app. This gives the huge advantage that you don't need to rely on the cloud/internet for the device to still work. I use this device with Tasmota and Home Assistant and allows me to easily integrate with my existing home automations.Great overall product!

Very good product! Was straightforward to install. I will warn that the unit is fairly bulky so you don’t want to be installing this into a small electrical box, but other than that, I’d give this a top rating! It’s nice having a dedicated (always on) outlet combined with one that is controlled with the smart unit.

The first one I purchased was a breeze to connect to my wi-fi and has functioned flawlessly for several months. The second one I purchased just would not connect to my wi-fi and was returned. Obviously, defective and lead to concerns about quality control so I purchased the Tekin outlet and it connected immediately.
