The product works great the only problem was the delivery delay..!

Looking to convert your existing low voltage lighting system to a smart system? Look no further. This LightKiwi plug is exatly what I was looking for. I needed to have the plug on the side to fit in the enclosure so this one works great. Also, skeptical at first about enclosing it in the metal box, but it works like a champ. I set it up through the Smart Life App, then added the device into my Alexa app, plugged in the transformer, and I was all set. I used the Alexa App to set up a routine to turn on 20 min after sunset and then off at 1am. Super flexible with Alexa routines.

The idea is great. The issue is the wifi connectivity is non-existent when the transformer door is closed (which it has to be or its not isolated from the elements). The moment you open the door the smart plug connects back to the wifi; however, the moment you close the door it loses connection almost instantly. Essentially makes the product useless for a low voltage landscape lighting transformer. Ended up purchasing a photocell from Lightkiwi which works flawlessly so far.

As many have suspected, when you put these inside the Lightkiwi transformers and close the door, the range is significantly reduced. This should really have a wire antenna that you could bring outside the transformer through a hole. I have this down by my pool, an area that has wifi, but it does not see the network with the door closed (but does with the door open). I then installed an outdoor WiFi repeater, and this device now works about 90% of the time with the door open, but sometimes the lights will flash on and off repeatedly as it gains and loses the signal. So if you can bring a wifi extender or repeater REALLY close nearby this is great. Otherwise you'll want to use a timer or light sensor

I bought this because a zwave plug I attempted to use wouldn't work with the kiwi transformer door closed (gah Faraday Cage). The plug is easy enough to configure using the ehappy app. I'm just disappointed I can't use an existing home hub such as smartthings. I'd have to pair the app with google assistant and then to smartthings?? not at all ideal. I'll continue to work with it to see if there's a generic device adapter that would work with this wifi plug device

I loved these Lightkiwi’s and installed 3 of them. Installation and programming is easy. I actually have various makes of Wi-Fi devices totaling over 16 at a vacation home. The bad news is, after a power outage, all the Wi-Fi devices reset and work while all 3 of my Lightkiwi’s are disconnected (offline) and will not reconnect even when I reset my Wi-Fi router remotely.

Not sure why so many negative reviews. Once you have it added to smart life app it works perfectly. Scheduling and on off switch works instantaneously without delay. Definitely recommend it and the lightkiwi low voltage transformer

This product does not do what it is intended. In principle it sounds good but it continually loses the WiFi signal. The unit was located not more than 20' from the router. It would cause the landscape lights to blink sporadically. I tried to make this work...it just doesn't. Many other reviewers stated the same.

Does not stay connected when door is closed

Worked great turning my landscape lighting on and off for 1-1/2 years, then quit. $30 for a device that quits 😖
