Before you buy these outlets, learn about the potential safety issues associated with smart outlets. Start by searching for "Smart Plug Security Issue". I tried them because they were a much cheaper option compared to what I was using. The main difference between these devices is that they connect directly to your WiFi network. This could potentially open your network to a hack. I can't say for sure that these outlets are a problem, but the alarms were enough to worry me. Since they need direct access to your router, you need to provide a password for the Smart Life app that controls them. This was the first sign that I was uncomfortable as the app was clearly written by someone whose primary language was not English. And I never had to enter my password for any other smart plug I connected to my system. The first outlet connected successfully and appeared to work. When I tried plugging in the second outlet, I saw the app save my password, the second sign of concern. I went ahead and tried installing a second socket and got an error and the install failed. After it failed, the lights on the outlet started blinking strangely (like a light on your computer when it's processing something). This was the third symptom that bothered me, so I immediately unplugged and surfed the web to look for this type of outlet. It didn't take long to find information about the potential security issues of all these types of devices. After that, I decided that other than one failed install, they weren't worth the risk they posed to your network's security. Buyer Warning.
