On the device is a button where you can turn the socket on and off manually and there is a status light to see if it is switched on or not.
It supports power metering and has overcurrent protection.
The device only supports the type F socket, and not the type E which is common in France and Belgium.
The size of the unit is a bit bulky: 2.55 inch x 3.11 inch (6,48cm x 7.9 cm), which can block sockets next to it.

You can connected to it through the Smart Life app. Here you can turn it off and on, set a schedule for on/off, or set a countdown to power off. In the "electric" tab you can see the current (A), power (W) and Voltage (V) it is delivering at the moment and historical. The app can send you a notification if the device plugged into it draws too much current and that it will switch off.

Custom firmware

You can flash the device with Tasmota, only the newer versions no longer use the ESP82xx module, but the Tuya WR2 module and are not supported.
