These Kasa15A Power Monitor Plugs Work!
By SubSailor on Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2022
I have a few of these now and I couldn't be happier with them. They are small and take up just one space on a two connection outlet so I can still plug in something else with no problem. The Kasa App is easy to use too and I have no complaints with it. In the App tap on the device to open it and then I can see the power usage now and over time, run time, schedule on and off times for the plug and then a settings gear where I can change the name of the plug and add my own picture from my camera roll or from the camera itself. It also has device information. It has a grouping feature that I have never played with. One thing to note on setup. When setting up a new plug it asks you to connect to the device WiFi in the the phone settings. On the iPhone, after the device connects, I get a popup at the top of the screen that says I'm connected and if I tap on this popup to go back to the App it has always failed to connect to my network after that and I don't know why. The way I have success is after I connect to the device I exit settings and open the Kasa App again and continue from there. I have always had success with connecting to my home network this way as I continue setup of the plug. For me I'm using these inside the house to control night lights on a timer and an "away light" for security while we aren't home. I have one plug that amazingly can connect to my WiFi about 200 feet away at my garage to control a security light mounted on the outside. I also have three plugs in a little solar shed about 60 feet away from the house that are on all the time to tell me how much power my solar panels are producing. This is why I like these plugs so much. They just work and work well.

Pain to pair. reliable otherwise.

Worked fine, until it came time to swap to a new network. It seemed like it fixated on the old network that had gone away. So it would not pair for the new network & threw it out.
