Smart Power Plugs

Buy smart plugs

With a smart plug, you instantly turn “regular” devices into smart devices: switch them on/off remotely, create schedules, and automate routines. Perfect for lamps, holiday lights, fans, coffee machines, or any household device you want to control more intelligently. In this category you’ll find both smart plugs and smart power strips / switching modules, so there’s always a solution that fits your setup.

Why smart plugs are so popular

The biggest benefits are convenience and control. You can reduce standby power by automatically turning devices off, and you can make your home feel safer by switching lighting or appliances exactly when you want. Many models also support voice control, so you can switch devices with a simple command through your smart speaker. It’s an easy way to upgrade your home step-by-step without immediately replacing fixed wall switches everywhere.

Choose the right smart plug: what to look for

Not every smart plug is the same. Start with the maximum load (important for higher-power devices or if you’re using a power strip). Next, check connectivity: most smart plugs work on 2.4 GHz WiFi (sometimes with Bluetooth for faster pairing). If you want to actively manage consumption, choose a model with a built-in energy meter for real-time insight into usage.

Popular use cases: from savings to comfort

Smart plugs are commonly used for routines like “everything off” when you leave, lights on at sunset, or automatically turning devices off after a set time. If you use energy monitoring, you can spot heavy users and optimize more effectively. And if you want to control multiple devices at once, a smart power strip with multiple outlets (and sometimes USB ports) is a practical upgrade for your workspace or entertainment area.

Practical tips for setup and daily use

Make sure your router has a 2.4 GHz network enabled (many smart home devices rely on this), and place the plug where WiFi coverage is stable. For higher-power devices, always choose a plug with enough amperage/wattage headroom and avoid continuous overloading. If you want to dim lighting via a plug, choose a dimmable smart plug that’s specifically designed for dimming, so it remains stable and safe.
