Amazon’s self-branded smart plug connects to Alexa via Wi-Fi, and enables on/off control for appliances like fans, heaters, humidifiers, and coffee makers. A key selling point is “Frustration-Free” setup that requires little more than opening the Alexa app.
The premise is really simple with the Amazon Smart Plug. It acts as an intermediary between the wall plug and your current electronics. Let’s say you have a traditional lamp you want to turn into an intelligent one. Simply plug the Amazon Smart Plug into the wall, then connect the lamp to the smart plug. You’ll then be able to control your lamp using Alexa.
The only tricky part here is that you must leave the electronics on, and let the Amazon Smart Plug act as any switch would, letting electricity through or stopping it from running. That’s not much of a sacrifice, especially considering how little money you can get this little accessory for! People often use these with lights, fans, coffee makers, Christmas lights, electric kettles, and more.
This is part of the Amazon Prime Day craze, but you should probably sign up for this deal sooner rather than later. Sometimes products go out of stock during these events.
