Bad Wi-Fi Receiver in Electrical

Setup is pretty easy, especially since we already have a couple of feit light switches. The Wi-Fi receiver in the outlet has a limited range and won't work consistently, likely because our router is downstairs (although the outlet was placed in a room directly above the one with a router). What we ended up with was a different type of router with two hubs instead of one, and the second hub was close enough to the Wi-Fi jack to fix the problem.

Pros
  • Easy Setup
Cons
  • Security

Great device to turn on and off, wifi, no bluetooth.

They are ideal for switching sockets on and off (outdoors). They are Wi-Fi only, not Bluetooth. This gives more range and better programming, but limits the interactivity a bit. Feit software is simple and highly customizable. Macros make it easy to turn regions on and off. The only issue was the Wi-Fi range on one of the devices. 3 out of 4 devices had a WiFi range of over 100 feet through walls, 1 device only worked within 25 feet of the router. He was probably wrong.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • I'll get back to you

Not easy to set up good for electrics

On the lamp I bought 1 and no problem setting it up, I bought 3 more and can't set them up, tried for an hour, exhausted, then tried the next day and nothing. It's for vacation rentals and I can't checkout until 9am and Faith is in California so a 2 or 3 hour difference if you can get to work there is great but not an easy feat. I also have outside lights and it wasn't difficult, next time I have a day off I'll call them to see if they can help me.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Fully working with a moderate click

Bought a used version from Amazon warehouse and it worked with the press of a few buttons once plugged in. No problems adding it to the house so far. Didn't test it after installing. A clear click can be heard when remotely turning on and off; Which won't be a problem as I plan to place this particular connector in an inconspicuous corner for the lamp. However, due to the loudness of the clicks, I wouldn't install it in a bedroom. Instead, I would opt for a smart lightbulb for silence.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Empty

It just keeps turning off.

As I said, the thing keeps going out. It's a plug, it's simple enough, and connecting to Wi-Fi and Alexa was very easy. That. Sometimes after 5 minutes, sometimes after an hour. It just won't last. I spent a small fortune buying waterproof boxes and plugs, thinking the problem was getting wet. I called an electrician and checked all the wiring. , No. connector problem. Based on other reviews I've just read, I'm not the only one having the same issue. The return date has already passed, so thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • High price

They work but are not reliable

I have already installed several Feit floodlights and security cameras. I can control any device from an app and also send commands via Google Home. I use one of these outlets to power a heater in my basement office. I can just press a button in the Feit app or say "Ok Google, turn off the office heat". However, to use any of the Feit products, you only MUST have a 2.4GHz network and they are very susceptible to interference. Coming from a tech background, I've been able to hook up a bunch ofโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor applications such as holiday lighting, landscape lighting or other outdoor applications and indoor applications such as heaters, fans, lamps, electrical appliances, kettles, coffee makers
Cons
  • Available in white only

I wish I could return this smart outdoor socket. I've had it for 3 months now and use it for our outdoor landscape lighting. Over the past few months or so, I've noticed when I look out the window that sometimes the light doesn't come on. Then I go to my Nest cam and see that it turns off at odd times. And there are no triggers in my Google activity that can be turned off by a random routine or spoken phrase. It's so frustrating I'll just call it a loss and just order another brand andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Combines indicator lights, household and garden electronics; Remote on/off, schedule and timer settings via app
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others

Must be installed at least 55 inches off the floor

See image for instructions that require the device to be placed vertically at least 55 inches off the floor. For this reason there are probably no images listed for the actual product used as it will be mounted to a wall or pole rather than being shown next to an outlet at ground level. Most people have GFCI sockets outside the knee or below. Height. The requirement that it has to be 55 inches means I either have to have it very prominent, which I didn't want, or very high if I can't reach theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Control your electrical appliances by phone with Feit Electric App, Alexa and Google Assistant; Siri Shortcuts
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide
