I thought i was pretty happy with the TP Kasa KP115 smartplugs. Wifi and not local but ok. Unfortunately they go offline once every month or so. Really not that big a hassle, but still. And the more i get the more often i need to reset them. I’d like to remove that completely if i can.
Should i go zigbee? I do want energy monitoring on them and they should be rated 13amp at least, higher is better even. But the most important thing is they shouldn’t go unavailable on me.
I have lot of shelly devices and cannot say wrong word about them. But I use them through manually configured mqtt (plus configured devices using http api) so likely avoided all hassle with other ways of controlling them
Shelly Plug S (10A) and Shelly Plug (16A), Wifi, local (Shelly cloud optional but no must!), stable, reliable, overheat/overpower protection, consumption metering, built-in timers, full HA integration.
Better than any other Wifi / Zigbee plug I’ve come accross so far (I’ve also tried Kasa, Osram, Hue, Innr, Aqara)
