About me: I'm a Newegg eggXpert. I've been designing computers since the 1970s, I specialize in high performance systems. Newegg provides experts with review copies of the devices but we receive no compensation and we are instructed to give honest reviews even if they are bad.

Pros I love the HS110 Smart plug; I recently bought a Kill A Watt energy monitor to try and get a handle on my massive electricity bills; I found it a pain to use because the only way to read it is to get down on you hands and knees with a flashlight and try to read the dim LCD screen.

I worry about security when using cloud enabled devices; I have a couple of WiFI networks, an insecure network that uses the WiFI on my Verizon router, and a secure network that's run off of a better router that connects it's WAN port to Verizon router, I regard the Verizon Router as no different...

So, TP Link sent me this product to test and try out. I have to say, it has really helped my family out in our quest to have a good system to manage our lighting at our 2nd residence. We want to keep unwanted eyes into knowing when we are there or not and this product does it.

Today we will show you something quite interesting. It's the TP-Link Wi-Fi Smart Plug. The version we received has energy monitoring functionality, but is also available without it. Some readers may ask what is so

Really handy device; Interesting functionality; Reasonable price considering functionality; Easy to use and configure; Good quality

Nothing worth to mention

Purchased this product to work remotely while on trips. At first could only access it from local internet. After a little research realized I had not set up remote access. Made the adjustment as the product functions as advertised. Good investment.

I purchased this plug to try the whole 'Smart Home' thing and integrate it with my Echo. And if you are ever on the fence or remotely considering controlling your home appliances/lights . I can tell you that You Need this !

Great fun to use and easy to set up with Alexa

I love these The work seamlessly with my Echo and dot. THey handled the little hiccup that occurred when the echo and dot were not responding with it. The only down fall is the size of the smart plug. They do have smaller options now, but they are obviously higher in price. I still love them though.

Very fast delivery. I use this product with my Amazon Alexa. Comes with very easy instructions and is perfect for my hard-to-reach sockets for lamps and television etc. (I bought several of these) There is no hub required and now my not-so-smart flat feels like its completely voice-controlled.

TP-Link have recently introduced a range of “Smart Home Device” from security cameras to smart lighting to energy management. Following on from our recent review of the TP-Link Smart Wi-Fi LED bulbs , we now turn our attention to their Wi-Fi Smart Plug.

Absolutely love these plugs, which make it possible to control certain appliances with voice control using Google Assistant. Works like a charm and super easy to set up. But be warned (I didn't know this until I got one home) they do not work with appliances that go into standby.
