Not much besides the cloud/app that controls them, and imho SmartLife/Tuya is better.
The Brilliant ones are Tuya.
Or 2 for $39 @ JB https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/tp-link-hs100-smart-wi-fi…
I brought this a while ago from an ozb post for $10 so not really a bargain.
Where did you bring it?
I received two from last promo don't know what to use.
electric blanket is my top usage. lights are pretty common. kettle for coffee/tea, if you wake up at regular times. TV to reduce standby power.
Christmas tree lights.
I just purchased an arlec grid connect socket for this purpose. Set up a timer as well as a command to enable Christmas mode from the chromecast. I think it was $18 at bunnings. Grid connect system seems pretty good so far.
Got a link?
@muttman: I guess this

I have one as well, paired to the Tuya app.
Yep, sorry, that's the one that theguyrules has linked.
Haven't tried any other apps except the Mijia/Xiaomi app as that's all I had previously. How does the Tuya app compare to others?
I had mine hooked up to tv/amp/gaming consoles to save on the standby power when not in use.
I have one on my coffee machine to help pre-heat it (dumb machine with power switch turned on all the time).
I have the electric blankets hooked up for pre-heating the bed without going upstairs to it.
And one for a dumb rice cooker. Prepare the rice and flick the switch. Start cooking the rice over the internet.
Lamps when I go on holidays to keep some lights on and off via a schedule.
Do these also monitor power usage?
edit just found its a different modelAh, was excited thinking were the HS110 model too.
$27 isn't horrible for the HS110 though (at JB HiFi)
$10 should be ideal pricing. Tenda, however, not recommended, usually prices at $10.
These are great for setting the christmas lights on a timer; to turn off at midnight… Can't think of anything else use them for
And fish tanks, swimming pools. Heaps of uses via the app. And integrates to Google home. I'm using them well. Had them tucked away for a year now found ways to use them.
Christmas tree, Christmas lights, pool heater, pool Light, AV equipment, kettle, coffee machine, phone charger, powertool Battery charger, PC…
Yeah I have a problem hahaI paired up my kitchen bench LED strip light with this (socket hidden within cabinet) and activate it via Alexa.
Bought one for that same price $20 at Bunnings over a week ago.
I have a few to control my Christmas lights and to control artificial spotlights for my indoor plants. 100% happy with them.
No native Homekit? Better off getting the other smartplug in the four pack, works out to be cheaper per plug,
What differentiates these from the normally priced Brilliant Smart Plugs?
