Wagos rock and take up very little space. Need that for smart outlets and switches because they take up so much more space then traditional switches and plugs.

[@ModernDayReviews]

Yep, they are awesome! Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@Christopher_Ago]

Huge fan if EVE devices but disappointed that the switches and outlets only come in white!

[@ModernDayReviews]

True, they need a few other colors. You could always spray paint them like I did with the Aqara double rocker. lol

[@RedicL]

Just ordered one before watching this video!! Thank you for the review. I am VERY excited to get this installed next week!

[@ModernDayReviews]

Hope you enjoy it! Where and how are you going to use it and with what platforms?

[@RedicL]

@@ModernDayReviews I have it installed in my bedroom to control Dyson fans and air purifiers. I currently have it in Apple Home.

[@frank__r]

Can you monitor the energy consumption for the individual outlets if you plug for instance an Eve energy, smart plug into each?

[@ModernDayReviews]

Why have this outlet if you're going to have a smart Eve Energy in each plug? Just use a normal outlet.

[@Shawn-rq4py]

Tried dozens of times today to make my Eve plug work but it will not connect no matter what I do

[@ModernDayReviews]

Have you tried to turn off your 5 Ghz Wi-Fi?

[@Shawn-rq4py]

@@ModernDayReviews I just read something that suggested that a few minutes ago. It’s midnight right now so I’ll try tomorrow. Thank!

[@ryan.swanstrom]

Thanks for this I have some smart power strips, but not any smart outlets Does it have any surge protection in case of a power outage?

[@ModernDayReviews]

Hey Ryan. Smart outlets are the way to go for the cleaner look but no this does not have surge protection and its rated for 15A.

[@mdvdschultz]

I have several Eve Matter devices and none of them work reliably with Home Assistant or Google Home

[@estusflask982]

Google Home is at fault

[@2QRh6g1I]

I have several Eve smart plugs ... all work fine with mixed Apple / Google home though doing the setup correctly was very tricky to figure out.

[@BondByPythons]

I can’t add it to homekit! It keeps giving me an error message 😭

[@nancypotts9877]

Why do you feel you need to have all this technology for some thing that is simple, simple and easy and works 100% perfectly without the need of this nonsense

[@ModernDayReviews]

To each their own.

[@RedicL]

People like tech, including myself. If you know how to use it right, it saves time, potentially money in the long run, and makes day to day life easy with automations. It's also really fun when you have a good attitude about it....
