Almost perfect!
I love seeing more smart devices get Matter support and TPLink has been slowly giving it to a lot of their smart devices which makes setup through Apple HomeKit a breeze. These plugs are a great value and may be the only ones I’ve found that support Matter and also provide power metering. Unfortunately, you can’t see any of the power info through the Apple Home app. That’s probably a limitation of the HomeKit API/Home App in general though. The Tapo app is intuitive to use and shows helpful power metering data for these plugs. I have mine connected to my home server UPS so I can monitor the power used from all of my home networking devices, NAS, and proxmox mini PC cluster. If power metering can be visible through the Apple Home app one day, this will be a perfect product. It’s a bummer that I have to deal with another app for that functionality but it’s by no means a deal breaker.

Excellent, get the 4 Pack!
These plugs do it all. The Tapo app already has my cameras so adding these was very easy. I highly recommend this model because it shows power usage monitoring and statistics. They only cost a little more then then the other basic tapo smart plugs so its worth the money. The plugs respond very quickly compared to other brands I own. The adapters are average size and tou may need to buy socket adapters if your using a UPS, surge protector, or power bar. Cyber power sells great ones for $3. These are the best smart plugs ive found so far and the app works great with them.

No power factor
Working fine, setup was easy. A little disappointed that the power measurement does not report current, voltage or power factor. I have Other smart plugs that report current, voltage and power, which lets me compute the power factor.

BEST smart plug I’ve ever owned, with excellent software
I’ve been using smart switches, plugs, and outlets for over 10 years and these are THE BEST I’ve ever used. To get the most value out of them, you need to use the Tapo phone app, which is easy to use and works great. The app can update the firmware on the plugs, which is a must-have for security. The app can also create scheduled routines to turn on and off the plugs, but I use Google Home for that. Overall these hit all the key quality categories like high quality build, easy software setup, and easy to follow instructions for setup and energy monitoring.PRO TIP: plug in only ONE plug at a time and set it up (i.e label it in the app for the location and/or appliance). If you plug them all in at the same time during setup, it will be much more confusing.

Better than a Kill A Watt, integrates easily with Apple Home.
Seamlessly integrates with Apple Home. One click QR code setup. App is simple, easy to use. Setup is clean. I was going to buy a Kill A Watt, but I get 4x the monitoring.On the app, you can set your actual power cost, including anything related to time of use metering, so you can calculate your actual power cost per outlet to track electricity use. The ONLY thing a Kill A Watt will do better is show you power factor for reactive loads. That is interesting from an academic perspective, but doesn’t really give me any information I need.

These are great, especially for overnights away from home.
These thing are great for controlling lights when away from home overnight. This brand as well as Kasa are all one company and I have several of both. The TP-Link Tapo app works with all of the Kasa products but not the other way around. The set up is easy as is the app. Scheduling on/off times is very easy and you can set up multiple on/off times for the same day and on specific days. I do actually like Kasa a little better but these work well (they are just a little different, but nothing significant).

Power monitoring _and_ control, Matter and HomeAssistant compatible
I was looking to identify the power consumption and on-off duty cycle of a few appliances in the home, all of which plug in to a 120V outlet. Side note: I’d like to find something similar for 240V, but there are so many 240V outlet configurations…Why these -I thought briefly about buying one of the self-contained power monitors (plugs into an outlet, provides an outlet, has its own display, etc.), but what I really wanted was to monitor the power over time, and for some use-cases compare that with other activity in the house. For this I needed to integrate the data (logging) into Home Assistant (HA) – an open-source smart home application I use. This combination brought me to choose theTP-Link Tapo Smart Plug Mini.Out of the boxing -The pair were well protected in the box on arrival, and easy to install. I did install the Tapo app. And connectivity was easy – joining them to the home network, where I next tested out the Tapo features. Control of them was easy, and I could name each one to clearly know what I’m looking at and controlling. Combined with the Tapo app, there is quite a bit of functionality in these things that I need to explore further.Because of their physical size, it is possible to put plug two of them over/under each other (in a typical duplex outlet). I didn’t have the need to, but they are too wide to plug them in side-by-side (e.g., in a quad outlet).Home AssistantI next found it was easy to integrate them into Home Assistant, which was easily done using the provided QR codes, my phone, and the HA app on my phone.From HA, I could also turn them on and off, set schedules and so forth. Some of this capability overlaps with the TP-Link app, but that was not my specific interest. I wanted them always on, so I could monitor the behavior of the thing plugged in. In HA, it wasn’t long before I had interesting data to look at.The pictures show 3 of the screens from the Tapo application, and you can see from one that it matches that from the time-history graph in Home Assistant, except in HA I could overlay other outlets into a single graph for time-history comparison (which wasn’t relevant in this specific case). With these outlets, I learned within about a day that the whole-house dehumidifier draws a lot of power _and_ runs at a nearly 50% duty cycle. The power consumption was in the specifications for the dehumidifier, but the high run-time was more unexpected. The overlaid graph shows power of the network center – multiple PoE switches, Pd end-points, two servers, one of which only comes on to support a backup operation. If you do want to check the power of something like a network or computer system, I’d recommend having the equipment on a UPS, and the UPS plugs into the TP-Link outlet (just to avoid an unplanned shutdown).Control of these outlets was easy (by both the TP-Link app and HA), but again, that was not my objective – so I named the devices with a “DO NOT TURN OFF” label as a reminder.SummaryThe main functionality of interest was the power monitoring and data logging, and these were a great solution at a reasonable price point. I’m likely to buy a few more.Because of the convenience of using these for power monitoring, I do wish there was a convenient way to “lock out” the ability to turn them off.

Glitchy at times.
It is convenient and server my needs. there are times when the plugs won’t connect to the app or when i set up the timer and it did not follow through. Used them together with my old Tapo Cam as well.
