Good price for these. If you don't know them, these are smart power sockets which you can link direct to Google Home or Amazon Alexa (uses eWeLink) without needing extra bridges/hubs/hardware like the Xiaomi range.

Some notes I gathered from previous deals:
* These are rated up to 2000W (instead of Aus standard 2400W), so high power appliances like heaters/AC will not work with these.
* Native Google Home, Alexa and IFTTT integration and can be flashed to support MQTT
* These are technically Chinese sockets which are upside down compared to ours - keep in mind when deciding where to use it
* They have not been tested for Australian safety specs. That said, teardowns and user reports state decent build quality.

    They work ok, using with google home with them. I brought 4 from BG and had 1 faulty one, BG sent a replacement eventually, Sonoff wasn't much help at all. Your mileage may vary. *oh and the led's are very bright

    • KnifeEnthusiastBoi on 28/01/2018 - 20:30

      I had similar problem with bright LEDs with my jackson wall plugs. Just put a tiny piece of nitto tape or gaffa tape on it. Or an opaque piece of card with magic tape if you dont like the sticky residue.

    • Trip on 28/01/2018 - 21:57

      I just received a Sonoff SV and its faulty. Have 2 of these sockets coming from another deal so I'm hoping they will work.

      I have both. Linked to alexa and can't tell the difference other than another app to setup Like a comment above said though the leds are bright.

  • asa79 on 28/01/2018 - 16:29

    So they monitor power usage as well?

      Haven't used one personally yet but as far as I know, no, they don't.

      A similar product called "Sonoff Pow" does but it requires hard wiring, which puts it beyond most home users and makes safety and compliance a much bigger factor. I wouldn't touch one of those personally.

    if you can't get them working do you say sonofab****?

    • Trantor on 28/01/2018 - 16:41

      Actually, you can use that phrase for through Google home if you wish to turn off and on!

    Thanks, OP. Already running low in stock, it seems!

    Thanks OP, just bought 5 😀

  • Remorhaz on 28/01/2018 - 16:44

    What the heck - grabbed one to try (and compare to my Xiaomi ones)

    • kirt on 28/01/2018 - 16:56

      Do the Xiaomi ones connect directly, or do they need server software or a bridge etc?

      • asa79 on 28/01/2018 - 17:47

        Wifi one doesn’t monitor power or zigbee that requires gateway monitors power usage

  • mlakmlak on 28/01/2018 - 18:04

    A pain to get working with homebridge but it does work. It may just be the ewe-link NPM plugin I chose https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-ewelink
    Had to break SSL & rip out the authorization bearer.

    These work great. The only thing I don't like is that their base is quite wide, so on some power boards you may have to leave the plug next to them vacant.

    Can someone tell me why i would buy the S20 when i can get the S22 for the same price

      S20 isn't ugly.

      • Tater on 30/01/2018 - 15:20

        This. And the S22 has an input for the AM2301 Temperature And Humidity Sensor

    Wait until they get SAA approval incase they burn your house down.. insurance won't pay out otherwise!

    • kipps on 28/01/2018 - 22:59

      I keep seeing comments like this. Can anyone point to a particular exclusion clause in a typical home & contents policy to show that this is the case? For example, I have briefly skimmed the CommInsure PDS at https://www.commbank.com.au/content/dam/commbank/personal/ap… and could not see a clause to such effect.

      For example, I looked at fire, and there were only three exclusions stated, none of which have to do with "unapproved" electrical items.

      • tap on 29/01/2018 - 10:16

        It's illegal. Maybe that's why?

        • kipps on 29/01/2018 - 10:29

          Again, I want a reference to the PDS. I am sure some of us have components not certified for use in Australia and may not even know it. If the insurer wants to exclude that risk then it must be in the PDS.

        • tap on 29/01/2018 - 20:07

          @kipps: if you think insurance companies are going to payout willy nilly after it's discovered illegal unapproved, uncertified devices were the cause of fire then you're not living in reality. Itead are about 4 weeks off being SAA approved so why not wait? Otherwise give your insurance company a call to confirm if they'll pay out if you're using illegal electronic products? If you do let us know what they say.

        • kipps on 29/01/2018 - 20:41

          @tap: I am not interested in your misconceived assumptions about insurance law. The PDS must exclude it in order for them to avoid the claim at law.

        • tap on 29/01/2018 - 21:24

          @kipps: I'm interested in your "briefly skimmed" misconceived assumptions though. Please get back to us when you have actual confirmation.

        • mskeggs on 29/01/2018 - 21:27

          @kipps:
          I have asked this same thing previously, to deafening silence.
          There is no regulatory requirement to have certified items as consumers.
          Vendors based in Australia must ensure products they sell are approved. I would love to see what law says imported electronics are illegal for consumers.

          The easiest example I can suggest is that travellers from all over visit Australia (as we do overseas). If them plugging in an appliance voided insurance, surely there would be at least one example somewhere of somebody being refused insurance payout because of this. There isn't, despite me looking at length, because it is made up and repeated by people who want you to take their word for it.

          @mskeggs: It's better to be safe than sorry. Assumptions are dangerous when you're dealing with your family home so I just finished asking Budget Direct (because they have online chat) and Lolly (chat agent) confirmed they'll replace your house but not the device that caused the fire. Internet, you're welcome but I still suggest making sure you double check with your actual insurer!

          @tap:
          Cheers, nice to see a fact.
          It is important to be cautious, but it doesn't serve anybody to say there are laws making personal import of electronics illegal or that insurers won't cover personal electronics from overseas, when they will.
          It is prudent to check what a policy covers, but as kipps says, the PDS describes the cover.

        • kipps on 29/01/2018 - 23:15

          @tap: I’m a lawyer. I read the PDS. What you’re saying doesn’t exist. But by all means, keep assuming you know everything and purporting to tell people what insurance doesnt cover without a clue. As to “illegal” electronics, you also are failing to distinguish between the levels of legality for a manufacturer, distributor and end user.

        • ilikecheapcrap on 30/01/2018 - 05:15

          @kipps: wait, your a lawyer, and yet your asking people not skilled in your profession to comment on legality that your suppose to be skilled in? Why arent you just telling us "yay" or "nay" for insurance as you "read the pds" and given your so clear on the levels of legality, surely your in the best position to ensure you put this topic to rest. my partner is a lawyer (im not), and yeah i havent asked her.. lol but suffice to say, your comments are coming off a little hostile, yet your suppose to be in a postion to educate us on what IS the law on the use of non Australian accredited electrical equipment in terms of any consequential impact on insurance policys.. if your so clear that regarding that if its not explicitly stated as an exclusion under Aussie law in a pds, then just possibly state the artefact/law that says that in regards to pds definition, and lets move on! You would be doing a great service for the ozbargain community, given we all own now a plethora of xiaomi products :) Also.. where are the insurers in the ozb community, surely they too, can put assist here! As per Kips comments, I will ask the question "IF pds does not specifically state an exclusion, does that mean its automatically assumed to be included", my GUT feeling is this is not the case, however I am NOT authoritative, just sounds TO ME illogical, i.e. why would we have safety standards if we are saying they are not required to be adopted from an insurance perspective, but the law is the law, and some factual references would be ace! Lets put it another way, if i had made my own electrical plug, and this was the cause for my house to burn down, are we saying insurance companys have no recourse in arguing that my negligence in electronics and my lack of knowledge in australian electrical standards was the major cause for the house fire and hence they should not be liable to pay up? Or do we continue down the path of "well if its not explicitly excluded in a Pds then the insurer has to pay".. either way, just site something tangible to us simple folk and educate us please.

          @kipps: A lawyer that "briefly skims" through legal documents. You sound like a quality professional. The fact of the matter is, I'm still not sold on the ease of receiving a payout from an insurance company that finds your negligence the cause of a disaster. I recognise the points you raise and the logic that others have presented but without concrete evidence (other than the brief online chat I had with a "sales rep" who has a vested interest in commissions), I'll continue to play it safe. That's my logic. Not yours. But you're a lawyer, so maybe you too are heavily biased because you're trying to sprook up business with people needing a lawyer to fight insurance companies that are refusing claims. Not that I'd trust you being my lawyer but good luck ;)
