Been using tp-link smart plugs for a moment. Not really had any problems with them but i want to move to something such as z-wave or a ZigBee. Something that is totally local and does not require a different app on my phone.

    Give em to me!

    I have a dozen or so, zero issues.

    Having said that, I do prefer zwave to WiFi. Glad theyre starting to head in that direction. Just dont understand why zwave gear is always 20% more expensive.

      IIRC, ZWave costs the manufacturer a license to use and they must meet certain quality guidelines.

      In the end this results in higher quality products, but there’s an overhead.
