Ever wish you could turn a particular outlet on and off without using a physical light switch? Maybe for an outlet that isn’t even hooked up to a light switch? With smart plugs, you can!
And right now, you can grab a two-pack of Kasa Smart Plugs for just $13 on Amazon, which is 35 percent off its normal $20 price. If you don’t want two, you can get the one-pack for just $8.
Imagine it’s time to sleep, so you leave the living room and lay down in your bed, get comfy, and you’re ready to drift off — when you suddenly remember that you didn’t turn off the lamp. (Been there, done that, grumble grumble…) If that lamp is plugged into a smart plug, you can remotely disable the smart plug from your phone and call it a night.
The Kasa Smart Plugs also support voice commands, allowing you to exercise hands-free control over your home devices via Alexa or Google Home Assistant. (Kasa also has a variant that supports Apple HomeKit and Siri, and that one’s on sale for $18 per two-pack.)
These smart plugs also have a nifty scheduling feature that lets you set up timers and routines that automatically turn your outlets on and off. That can be useful when you’re on vacation and you want your lights to turn on at night so your home isn’t an obvious target for burglars.
They’re really easy to use, too. Each smart plug fits right into a single wall outlet and doesn’t block space (so you could plug two into a single wall outlet if you wanted to). Simply connect them to your Wi-Fi network using the Kasa app, and each smart plug has a physical power button that you can use to manually turn on and off if needed.
Smart plugs are a cheap and effective way to begin smartening up your home without investing a lot in expensive smart home devices. Get this two-pack of Kasa Smart Plugs on sale for $13 and start today!
