Can’t help you there I’m afraid

The Wemo can also send you an email once a month with all your usage data on it too

Lesmor

No problem you have really helped with the wemo at least there is no guesswork as to unit cost

Just ordered a Wemo should be with me tomorrow
Coincidentally just got my monthly report email from Hive and they now have GU10 bulbs but at £15 a pop
They have add a few more useful features to the app though which is good news

Just had a Google Home Mini arrive.  Seems pretty decent and the free calls thing works well

That's a plug I find myself buying every time I see a deal going and will probably end up with more of the same product at home.

Yeah I have 5 of their plugs, I tend to pick up one or two when they are on offer. I also have a Wemo Maker which is quite useful. Have to say I’ll buy Wemo plugs over TPLink every day. I have found them to be much more reliable. My Wemos never miss a beat, the TPLinks occasionally fail to turn on/off. Last time I was in the US I looked at the Wemo light switches. If they ever launched a non-decora UK version I’d buy them in a heartbeat, some of the best switches I’ve ever used.

Well guys good to know that Wemo is so well regarded
Although it was reduced I don't think I got a deal at £42.76 but it is energy monitoring and you could wait forever
To be honest I am very happy with the cheap RF ones I bought they are not smart but they do work with Google mini via my broadlink

I use these, which work with Apple Homekit and do not require any extra hub.

ive got three Wemo Insights and one of the original larger Wemo plugs.....

What would be nice if you could change the "type" of the plug as Alexa sees it.   WOuld be nice if I could group a Wemo plug and a certain rooms Alexa so I can jsut say lights off ifor the lamp I have plugged in.

It must be posible as one of my cheaper smart plugs at home does it just fine.

Lesmor

would have thought that was possible,if not in the wemo app then definitely in the Alexa app maybe under groups
Anyway my Wemo has been delayed so it won't be today
A shame for Amazon as it was a compulsive buy so might end up cancelling and wait for a deal
