Hello,
I’m looking for recommendations for an in-wall outlet designed for North America (Canada). Ideally, I’m searching for a model that:
- Allows independent control of both outlets (I’m aware some models only allow control of one receptacle, but I specifically need both to be manageable).
- Supports Zigbee or Z-Wave protocols.
- Provides energy monitoring for both outlets individually.
I specifically need an in-wall model, as this is for a new home construction. My goal is to be proactive by installing these outlets throughout the house instead of relying on smart plugs. This approach will give me a comprehensive view of energy consumption per device now and in the future.
In my current home, I’ve been using Sinopé devices for appliances like water heaters and heated floors, as well as Inovelli Red Series (Z-Wave 800) switches, and they’ve worked wonderfully. For this reason, I’m inclined to continue with these brands in my new home, but I’m open to better suggestions if you have any.
Thank you in advance for your recommendations!
