【Compatibility Tips】 Connect directly to Amazon Echo devices (must be able to recognize ZigBee), for example [Echo (4th generation); Echo plus 1; Echo plus 2; Echo plus 3; Echo Studio; Echo Show 10]. Note: [Other Amazon Echo devices require a ZigBee hub, otherwise they will not connect properly. 【Easy Pairing】No other app required, this is a smart lamp socket that automatically pairs with Amazon Alexa. Just ask "Alexa, add a new device" and wait a few seconds and the socket will automatically pair with Amazon Alexa, making setup easier than ever. 【Voice Control】 Allows you to turn the light on and off with voice commands. 【APP Control】 You can control your lights remotely from anywhere with the Alexa App/SmartThings APP and turn your lights on or off according to your daily schedule. 【Remote Control】 Configured with a handy 2.4G light smart remote control that supports full on and full off.

Surprisingly Impressed

The old fashion dial timers WORK if you want to go cheap; Go with a Wi-FI Bulb adapter and LEVEL UP; The ability to change the On/Off Light Bulb adapter schedules with your iPhone is just 2 EASY. Connecting the WiFi Bulb to your home network is relatively easy, but not brain-dead - I had to use the blue tooth feature to connect mine. I'm not using the remote. The iPhone App is either Chinese or something Asian. Are you Surprised? Sadly, not much is made in the USA anymore. The App gets the job…

Pros
  • Electrical
Cons
  • Constant Maintenance

Couldn't connect wifi or remote

Way too complicated and didn't work. I am very good with tech stuff. I bought the Lora Tap. Installed and working in 5 minutes.

Pros
  • Light Sockets
Cons
  • Users will have to pay extra to purchase the devices that the QIACHIP Remote Control Socket Adapter is compatible with, which makes it an expensive product

Works as it should with a standard 60W bulb

Works as is should and it can in fact handle 60W. That was my biggest concern as I'm using this for one of those extremely bright and bulky 4 winged LED garage lights. I would not try exceeding 60W though. A little overpriced, but this one works. I had to refund a cheaper model here on Walmart that stopped working.

Pros
  • Just the app not works like description said
Cons
  • Absolute cheap crap that will not connect thru multiple methods and attempts

Perfect! and with a remote

The instructions are printed VERY small and lacking some info but the product works perfect.1. Download the eWeLink app. If you do not have Alexa app, download it too if you want to control it by voice.2. Make sure your phone is connnected to your 2.4Ghz network. (Just for the setup)3. Open the app and click to link to Alexa (if alexa installed)4. Screw the adapter to a powered socket (ON)5. Using a pen, click and hold for 5 secs the little green light led (Yes, its a button too) until it…

Pros
  • Compatibility Tips
Cons
  • Limited Range: The ZigBee Technology used in the product has a limited range, which may make it unsuitable for large homes
