EMPORIA Smart Plug with Energy Monitoring | 15A Max / 10A Continuous | WiFi Smart Outlet | Mobile App | Alexa | Google | ETL Certified (Package of 4), EMSO1-4

Transitioning from another app based smart plug that didn't support the app after Threads integration. Already using Emporia for our EV charger, so using the app was not a downside. Google Home integration was a plus, disappointed that it didn't extend to Apple Home. App design is elegantly simple and easily does what is expected in terms of setting schedules and ad hoc control of the on-off switch. Being able to see power consumption is a game changer over the previous smart plug. Expanded smart plug use to our freezers for this very purpose since it also allows you to know if/when the freezer powers off. Overall, a very well done and useful device.

Pretty solid devices for the price. Easy connection to the emporia app and sync with the emporia vue. Works with alexa.

Second time purchase - excellent product to control and monitor your electricity use. Easy to set-up and so informative to see where you use the most power.I was surprised to see how much power my fish tank heater and a gaming PC use when compared to to a sump pump (which I thought would be worse).Also Emporia has great product support, and integration with their other power products.

Only in a four pack.The syncing with the wifi was sketchy on the first one but the second was easy.I'm using one for the attic fan monitoring and minimizing power usage. I use a humidity and temperature sensor plugged into this. Schedule to run once a day to evac the air in the attic if the conditions are met.Second one and third one used for Christmas lights. Scheduled to run from 6p - midnight. Helps manage power usage. On Christmas eve thru Christmast day I can turn them on from my phone. No need to go to garage to do it.The app is excellent and intuitive. Great power usage report.I recommend this purchase. No I get nothing for my recommendation. I paid full price for these.

When you can get the smart outlets connected, they work well with the Vue 3 allowing you to monitor specific items on a circuit, but there's 3 draw backs. 15amp load max which eliminates some kitchen appliances, won't connect to 5ghz wifi, so if the outlet is too close the the router or mesh Hotspot, it won't connect unless you can turn of 5ghz temporarily etc. and if power or wifi drops, the outlets have to be reconfigured...and if you had to moved a router farther away to connect it the first time...but when it works, it's great!

Works as expected. Best energy monitoring out there. I hope they come out with a surge trip soon with individual programmable ports.

Having used several other plugs, the Emporia Smart Plugs are significantly higher quality and much more reliable. The app interface is intuitive and easy to use. It is very easy to schedule the plugs and the bonus is having data logged on the power use. The data is available on the app and historical data can be downloaded as well.The one BIG item that stood out is the build quality. These plugs have a better plug then other cheaper alternatives. Worth the money.

I bought a 4 pack of these “Smart Plugs” to use in conjunction with the VUE energy tracking. I wanted to try and use them to program a schedule to power cycle a heat trace cable on a water line that draws a max of 650 watts. The smart plugs are unable to reliably turn on and off as per the programmed schedule…..about a 50% chance that it actually turns on or off as scheduled. I programmed 3 of the 4 and got the same result for each one. I also tried them in different scenario just turning a lamp on and off, within a few feet of my wifi router, with the same unreliable results, so I have to say don’t buy these if you want to use them to reliably switch anything on and off on a schedule. I did not bother to try to program the 4th plug….just seemed like that would be a waste of time since the first three out of the box could not work on a programmed schedule. Also, I don’t typically write reviews, but products that perform this badly need reviews to help stop people from wasting their money.
