merossSmart Power Strip, WiFi Power Strip with 20W USB Ports, With Timer, Compatible with Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, Voice/Remote Control, 2.4GHz

Fantastic tool. Such great quality and works a dream. The one limiting factor is not being able to set timers on individual sockets easily. Connecting the device was easy but I would recommend doing the app sign up before linking to HomeKit. Very good price. Would highly recommend.

I use this behind my TV cabinet to power my amplifier, subwoofer and TV. Much neater and cheaper than buying them each an individual smart plug. I would have liked the USB sockets to be more powerful so that I could connect my HomePod Mini there, but it’s not a show stopper.Adding to Apple HomeKit was straight forward. Scan the logo and waiting a few seconds. All of the sockets appeared and could be renamed (name them after the appliance they’re connected to, then saying “turn on the amplifier” and Apple knows what to do).I did then try the Meross app. I didn’t notice any additional functionality that would be useful to me so I uninstalled it. Doing so removed the device from HomeKit so I had to re-add and re-configure them. Not a huge issue but worth knowing.These have worked flawlessly since. I even connected my Christmas tree which saved me scrambling around.

Really great! Very easy pairing and HomeKit support. I used it to replace an existing Meross single plug, which ran a dumb power strip, to control Wi-Fi routers, PC, and laptop equipment. Enjoy the convenience of having a timer, e.g. when I’m only at home, to turn my devices on/off individually. The only downside was that it’s initially trial and error to figure out which physical socket corresponds to which on HomeKit or your smart home app of choice. Trial and error was annoying when disabling the wrong plug meant cutting off the home Wi-Fi! A simple label on the device could’ve solved this. Looking forward to seeing Matter integration on future devices.

Works well, handy to have app control of all sockets individually, scheduling on/off periods is really convenient.It is only possible to switch on/off all sockets with the single button on the device.

Another winner from Meross. I can't tell about longevity, but this was easy to set up and control via Alexa and the app.

Very useful piece of kit.The USB ports give my iPhone and Apple Watch a good quick charge when used.Good to turn on individual sockets as and when needed.Very solid feeling, and good quality.Only issue is naming each port, find it can revert back which is irritating, other than that little niggle, I'd consider buying a few others for the house.

Once I hooked up the plug to Apple Home on my ipad mini I can control lights, laptop and other devices without going over to the power strip. I haven't ye synced it with Meros as it does not have he power strip recognised yet so maybe that is something for future as the timer works through there I think not Home.

This generation of Meross power strip is proving unreliable.They regularly drop off the network despite showing 100% signal.USB charging cannot cope with more than one device without regular resets. Annoyingly making screens of connected devices come on in the middle of the night.
