TP-Link smart plug: how they work ?

The smart outlet connects to your Wi-Fi network. And to it you connect the device you want to control.

On your mobile device, we install the Kasa app, through which we will control the smart sockets. Next, you just need to configure the outlet, add it to the application. How to do this, I wrote in the instructions for setting up TP-Link HS100, and TP-Link HS110.

Once set up, from your cell phone you will be able to control the outlet. Turn the power on and off, set the timer to turn on or off, customize the mode of operation. And if you have a TP-Link HS110 model, you can also see the power consumption.

Important! You can control the power of the device connected through this outlet not only when you are connected to your home Wi-Fi network. You can be anywhere, even in another country. The main thing is that you need to have internet on your mobile device. Everything works through the cloud

I’ve been using the TP-Link HS100, and TP-Link HS110 outlets for about two weeks now. Cool devices that you can find a practical use for. I’ve never managed to do so, though. There are actually a lot of possibilities. You can turn on the heating system, for example, an hour before you get home. You can turn on your iron through this socket, and you don’t have to worry about leaving it on. Since you can check it at any time.

In the application you can customize the time of turning on, or power off. There is also a “no home” mode. When the outlet automatically turns on and off devices. Like a light fixture, for example. It’s like you’re at home.

Of the controls, there are only two buttons. The first button, which is small (with a gear icon) is needed to customize the smart outlet and reset settings. And the second button, which also contains an LED indicator, is used to turn the socket on and off manually.
