After using the BN LINK Smart Plug Power Strip for a few weeks, I can confidently say it's a great addition to any smart home setup. The setup was a breeze—just plug it in, connect to WiFi via the BN-LINK app (or Smart Life/Tuya), and you're good to go. No complicated steps or headaches.
The integration with Alexa and Google Assistant is seamless. I love being able to say, "Alexa, turn on the lamp" and have it respond instantly. The ability to control each outlet individually or group them for unified commands is a game-changer for managing multiple devices.
The USB ports, including the 20W USB-C, are a lifesaver for charging phones and tablets. I’ve used them to power my Kindle, phone, and even a small fan simultaneously without any issues. The surge protection gives me peace of mind, especially during storms.
However, there are a few quirks. Some bulkier plugs don’t fit easily due to the tight spacing between outlets. Also, like other users mentioned, the WiFi connection can be finicky if you’re far from the router (though devices already connected stay functional).
Overall, this power strip delivers on its promises: easy setup, reliable smart features, and solid charging capabilities. If you need a budget-friendly smart power strip with voice control and USB ports, this is a solid pick—just double-check your plug sizes!
