Rated 5 out of 5 byJan P from Easy to set up and works great!I received the Wemo insight plug through a drawing by my utility company. I was excited because I had wanted to integrate smart technology with my Google Home. It was easy to set up and worked great so I bought 2 mini plugs. Now this Senior has 3 lights that work via voice control and a timer. I love it!

Rated 5 out of 5 byRickZ from Nice FeaturesFirst, I had no problem setting up the Wemo Insight.Writing here on some features not mentioned in any comments so far.Reason for using the Insight; I had purchased a Ford Fusion Energi and wanted to know how much it was costing me to recharge it. My router is on one side of the house, the WEMO HUB is about in the middle and the Insight is in the garage on the opposite side of the house. No connection issues.The cool features;Editing the Insight with your app, you can set the cost/Kwh. I get this by taking my electric bill total and divide it by the total Kwh usage on the bill. With that I get an approximate of how much it cost me per Kwh.Additional feature, still in edit mode, I set the Data Export option to email me a CSV file once a week. Your other options are Now, Daily or Monthly. Using MS Excel to read this file, the sheet contains Day's cost, Kwh consumption and several other columns of information for each day of use. It just keeps adding rolls maintaining all previous data. Given, there are other devices that can do the same thing, but I can see the current consumption on the app and when my car texts me it is fully charge, I turn off the Wemo Insight using the same app.

Rated 5 out of 5 byJimA from Extremely useful. I want more of them.So easy and useful once you get the knack. Right now I am controlling my back deck lights and my Christmas tree with two versions of these. I turn them on and off twice a day, sometimes with sunrise/sunset an d other times with the clock. We live in Ontario, yet I can randomly control the lights from our home in Florida. And, I have two security cameras that can watch or it will save motion incidents I can go back to.

Rated 5 out of 5 bybluesand379 from I LOVE THIS - for all the wrong reasons.My boyfriend never has his phone on him. Last night I was trying to get a hold of him so I used the Wemo App to flicker on and off the living room lights which is connected to the Wemo Smart Plug. Although he though the house was haunted at first he then realized it was me so he found his phone and called me back. How great is that?!?!On a side note, I'm using the smart plug for the Christmas Lights and love that I can turn them on and off from my phone. Thanks Wemo!

Rated 5 out of 5 byNadine from Very Handy!I bought two Insight Smart Plugs a week ago and was so excited when I received them in the mail. They’re bigger than I expected but the fact that they function without a hub is nice. I got two of them and had issues setting one of them up. I was able to reset it and get it working but it really brought to my attention that the reset button is awkwardly positioned. It’s difficult to hold down while plugging in.The app is intuitive and getting my plugs labeled so I know which light I’m turning on/off was easy.

I have been using wemos for around 5 years and i still have the same issues as when i started, even with all the software and firmware updates/upgrades - wemos drop off, loose connection and cant add multiple sites. I use a simple third party software to control wemos. The combination of the wemos and the third party software for me is brilliant and reliable! Wemos and orginal wemo app software not so good.

Rated 5 out of 5 byThechop from Good but needs improvementIt was a little finicky getting it programmed I had to uninstall the app a few times before it would recognize the switch. You can't control Wemos from multiple locations with the same device. Each location has to be on a separate app so you would have to have it on two different devices. Once I was able to finally get it programmed and upgrade the firmware it has worked very well.

The other I configured to light my pellet stove in my shop via a Google voice command from home. Warm shop when I arrive.

Rated 5 out of 5 byPuppy from My new "remote."With summer on the way, a remote controlled fan was on my wish list to save me a little money on my air-conditioning. Then, the Belkin offer was in my e.mail, so I decided to buy another Insight instead of a new fan. Already have an insight in the bedroom and it's been a great energy savings over the past several years. Now I can cool myself off as needed with the new "remote" without having to cool the rest of the house. I love that the Insights can be programmed to turn on and off. Now that I have an Echo, Alexa can turn them on and off too. They're so easy to use...a couple of little miracles for this old lady. Thanks Belkin!
