The price on the page initially displays as $56 but if you click the Price Match button on the page, it displays $39. Unfortunately no click and collect available anywhere near me so I paid the $3 Australia Post tracked delivery. I think this may be an all time low price however unsure on this bit.

These are the non-energy monitoring ones and are not Matter-supported versions but still pretty good price at $10 a pop if you buy using 5% discounted gift cards (comes to $39.90 delivered)

I have roughly 7 around at home and so far none of them have failed for me, infact never missed a beat (Thankfully). I do acknowledge that a few people have reported failures so this is my way of making sure I have replacements at hand when the time comes.

    Nice but if you want Matter compatibility then grab the P110M model off amazon

    What are some of your use cases guys?

      I use similar devices to automate fishtank lighting and bedside lamps

      I use them to turn off stuff that only goes into standby mode (e.g. TV, etc.) so there is little power usage / less change of the psu's giving up, however I've found that the Kogan branded ones I have only lasted around 6 months before the solenoid dies so they stop switching off/on..

        So you device stand by power is saved, but surely this plug also will consume some power all the time to be connected to internet; what am I missing?

          Yes it will consume some power, but not as much as the multiple devices connected through it (Tv/androind box/mini pc/playstation/tuner, etc).. Also as mentioned it saves the PSU's being powered on all of the time on the TV and other devices which potentially improves longevity.

      Turn any non-smart plug in electrical device to smart basically. I use it on floor lamps, Pedestal fan, TV and soundbar outlet, Recliner sofa, etc. Have timers set to On at sunset for some lamps.

      I’m using some of them around the house for automating some tasks, such as watering my garden (I’m planting a lot of vegetables), lighting and turning on the CO2 system for my planted tank, timing my oven, or turning the heaters on/off in different rooms.

      Connecting them to the system of temperature and humidity sensors, I can automate the heaters and humidifiers if the levels drop to a certain level (like ~18-20 Celsius or 40-60% humidity), especially during the night.

    • krisspy on 20/11/2024 - 13:20

      This can turn on/off based on su rise/sunset, use it on my ev to only charge when free

    • MyEducation on 20/11/2024 - 13:41

      Favourite use for it is turning on the coffee machine in the morning, so I don't need to wait for it to warm up for 5-10mins.

    along with other people, I have had these specific model fail, and the TP-Link support was terrible - I would strongly suggest not getting these - check previous deals for info about peoples failure experiences.

    Update for clarification - P100 and P110 have failed, newer P110M have been fine.

    • noshopping on 20/11/2024 - 13:08

      Yep deployed a few off these and found about 40%? go bad after a year. Hopefully the new P110M last, but I stopped buying the previous models, only P110M in the hopes it won't have the clicking issues that develop after certain time.

    • bigbadboogieman on 20/11/2024 - 13:12

      I am quite surprised. I have 8 at home since May-2023 excluding the 4 I ordered today. Literally not a single one has failed for me. May be I got lucky 🤞

        Mine have been fine also. We must be running on cleaner electricity

    • darkly on 20/11/2024 - 14:09

      Ive had multiple with the same point of failure, where they suddenly start clicking on and off. Doing a littrle research I found it was a common fault where the 10V 470UF capacitor fails. I went as far as replacing it myself with a better quality solid capacitor and they have been reliable ever since.

      This ones an overseas model but its the same component

    Where is the price beat button?

    Great plugs

    Damn, missed it

  • GuniGuGu on 20/11/2024 - 13:53

    Do these work with tuya \ smart life app?

      Nope.

      • GuniGuGu on 20/11/2024 - 20:33

        Ahh god… I got a couple of these by accident, spent forever trying to work out why they wouldn't connect… Thinking it was like my older ones that did.

        • bigbadboogieman on 20/11/2024 - 20:59

          Silver lining is that both Tuya and Tapo work with Google, Alexa, SmartThings and IFTTT

          • GuniGuGu on 20/11/2024 - 21:01

            @bigbadboogieman: yeap, only reason i didn't return them… But it does mean one more app to keep on the phone incase i need to reconnect them or troubleshoot :(

  • smarter_fool on 20/11/2024 - 14:04

    Called GG to price beat and the bet they could was $45 pick up from the store.
