Lepro P1 Smart Plug Mini 15A, Smart Home Wi-Fi Outlet Plug, Compatible with Alexa & Google Assistant, APP Control, Safety Lock, Timer & Group Controller, 2.4G WiFi Only, UL & FCC Certified, 2 Pack

Update 12/27: Alexa integration is finally working.
Pros:Easy to setup with app.Easy to get working.Both outlets can fit in one place.Cons:Failed to work with Alexa. [Update] it now works fine with Alexa.Other thoughts:[Update]Now that it works with Alexa, i can give it full rating.[Old]I got this specifically because I automate multiple things with Alexa to turn on/off. Unfortunately, these outlets are not good for me as I cannot get them to be recognized with Alexa. I have multiple system automations in place which I control with Alexa, and if these outlets cannot integrate with Alexa, then they are useless to me. It seems to have worked at some point in time, but as of December 2024, the skill will be enabled but no outlets will be recognized.Raised my issue with their support, but haven’t heard anything in a couple of days other than (so sorry, we will have our support look into it). It is clear that the integration is broken, and we do not know if it will be restored/fixed. If they fix this, I will update my review, but for now, steer away from this, unless the Alexa integration is not an issue for you.

Works as advertised
This is my first time using smart plugs, and the experience was good. I wanted a timer for my Christmas tree lights, and in the future I plan to use these plugs to turn on house lights for security when I’m away at night.Setup was straightforward. I used the app instead of controlling via Alexa or Google Home, although I might try those methods later.I created a schedule using the app, and my tree lights not come on as scheduled. There’s also a manual “button” in the app so I can turn on/off the lights outside of the schedule.There’s one thing I don’t like about the app. Creating a schedule is straightforward and easy to figure out, but there are additional toggle switches in the app for Off Time and On Time. These correspond with the same times I set up in the app, and I have no idea what these app switches are for and how to use them.This points out the need for some basic instructions, which the app doesn’t provide.Other than this minor thing, I’m very satisfied with these smart plugs.

Schedule feature doesn’t work.
I got these to control Christmas lights using the schedule function in the app. I set the on and off times for both outlets for every day of the week at the same times. They turned on and off only one time. The schedule function only seems to work just once, then they stay off.In the app, there are two places to set up the schedule and the procedure is exactly the same for both. So I tried to set the schedule again using the other method… and again, it worked on day one. But it no longer observed the schedule passed the first day.I’ve looked everywhere in the app and I can’t find anything that would prevent the schedule from working.

Good with app. Not so much with Alexa.
These plugs were easy to set up and connect to my home WiFi using the mobile app. You can also control the power and create schedules using the app. However, even after connecting the app to my Amazon account with the Lepro Alexa Skill, the plugs never appeared in my list of devices. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting several times but the plugs couldn’t be found. Although the plugs work well with the proprietary app, without Alexa support, they aren’t really useful to me.

The Smart Plug Mini 15A is an excellent addition to any smart home setup, providing convenience and efficiency with its user-friendly features. What stands out most is its seamless integration with Alexa and Google Home, allowing for effortless voice control over various devices. This capability has made managing my home electronics simpler and more efficient. The ability to create schedules and timers is another feature I find particularly beneficial, as it helps automate mundane tasks like turning lights on and off or starting appliances at specific times, thereby enhancing energy efficiency.I also appreciate the group control feature, which enables multiple plugs to be controlled simultaneously, offering a more streamlined approach to home automation. This is particularly useful when coordinating devices in the same room or those that need to network together for a particular function. The fact that no hub is required and setup is straightforward using a 2.4GHz WiFi network is an added convenience, making these plugs accessible even for those new to smart home technology.On the downside, the reliance on a 2.4GHz WiFi network might be limiting for some users, especially in environments where dual-band WiFi is prevalent. Additionally, while the compact size is generally a positive, in tightly spaced outlets, it may still cover adjacent sockets. Despite these minor issues, the Smart Plug Mini 15A delivers reliable performance and seamless connectivity, making it a valuable tool for enhancing home efficiency and convenience.

These smart plugs are quick and easy to set up and get working with the Letpro+ app. They connected to wifi easily using the same wifi my phone was connected to. With the Lerpro app I’m able to set schedules and timers.Unfortunately while they work with the Lepro+ app they dont appear in either the Google Home or Alexa apps. I’ve tried adding them multiple times. I’ve tried using different wifi networks and tried connecting and reconnecting the Lepro+ skill but without any success. I’ve got several other smart devices from other companies that worked and appeared in my Google and Alexa apps almost immediately so this is unusual. Alexa and Google recognize Lepro+ so perhaps the problem is these sockets aren’t supported yet but might be in the future. This severely limits the usefulness for me since I control my smart devices with voice commands to an Echo Dot and a Google Home Mini.

The Lepro Smart Plug Mini 15A was a disappointment.Here are the PROS:* ETC Certified, safe to use in Canada* Good design allows for two plugs to be plugged into wall socket* Seems to be well made* Nice it works with Alexa and Google Home AssistantCONS:* Won’t work with Smart Life, Smart Things, Kasa* Have to install YET ANOTHER app* Have to make an account to use that app and the deviceNothing else matters as far as any benefits these plugs may have. The requirements of the consumer to use a plug is beyond reasonable, in my opinion. I would be looking for something that did not require another app and making an account.
