Ring Outdoor Smart Plug

Works great!

We finally added Ring bridge and lighting to our alarm system. Landscaping lights can now be scheduled and control via the Ring App. We've had Z wave switches in our system but these do not connect to ring bridge and do not have scheduling functions. Note that you must have the Ring Bridge module in order to use the Outdoor Smart plug. These units have two outlets that are individually controlled. they are called 'A' and 'B'. thus you can control two different power functions be it lighting, fans or small appliances etc. There is a button on the top face of the unit which has a slight toggle function left or right. Each side controls plug A or plug B toggling on and off manually when needed. They are very easy to setup via the Ring app. Click add device, Scan the bar code and follow the instructions. Once connected there are the various options to create lighting groups and schedule on off times. The units are a bit large and heavy so be aware if you are trying to conceal them. They have a hefty high quality feel to them. Heavy duty power cord with right angle plug end. Very Nice

I purchased this smart outlet to control two sets of outdoor lights in my backyard, around my swimming pool. Although, Amazon claimed it would work with/through one of my echo speakers I was never able to connect the smart outlet to the rest of my Ring devices without first buying a Ring lighting bridge. You can’t buy a Ring bridge by itself on Amazon, however, you can buy one at Lowe’s. What I like about this device is that you can control both outlets independently, as well as set up timers on each, or have them turn on automatically based on events, such as motion sensors activated on other Ring devices.

I am very pleased with the item itself for the most part. It was easy to install in the Ring app. The reason I purchased this was to connect my string lights. I was hoping to be able to connect this cord with the Ring motion detector so whenever someone passes by my string lights will light up the area. However, I was wrong or unable to connect the two. The Ring motion detector only worked for our cameras, and it appears that this product only works with Alexa. Personally, I don’t care for Alexa. Nonetheless, I still like it. I have the Ring app. It connected to the Ring bridge easily. I enjoy that I can have certain areas light up around my home; as it allows you to control the two ports separately.

Great it allows me to turn my pot door lights on or off from my phone! However it requires a Alexa bridge so be aware of that

Does not work with the Ring Bridge Gen 2. Does not work. Do not buy. I spent 52 minutes with Ring customer service in India to finally be told by a guy in phoenix that they are not compatible.

I have 5 of these strategically placed throughout my yard. One runs my fountain, another one runs my gazebos lights, another I use for my light strips on my awning, another for an LED light strip on a fence and the last for a halogen projector. All hooked up to one bridge. They all work flawlessly through my Ring and Alexa apps. Have never had an issue setting any up or losing connection. Great that they have 2 outlets than can be controlled independently or as a single unit. Very versatile.

Great product ! Overall, this smart plug is convenient, reliable, and integrates seamlessly with other Ring and Alexa-enabled devices. If you want more control over your outdoor electronics, it’s definitely worth it.
