Manufacturers recommend using the WeMo Insight Switch with TVs, washing machines, lighting fixtures, and various heating systems. But what exactly is the effect? And listen to the decomposition below!

The socket itself is of a rectangular design, and when inserted into the mains socket, it will visually form a protrusion of approximately 2 inches (5.08 cm). So far, the inconvenience caused by the heavy design of various smart sockets seems inevitable.

For testers, inserting it into the socket on the countertop of the kitchen does not cause any trouble, but if the user needs to insert it into a concealed outlet behind the furniture, he must think twice because it follows the general rules. From this point of view, the user needs to move the furniture so that it has a space of at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) between the wall outlet and the mains outlet on the wall, which is sufficient to accommodate the smart socket and the various device plugs to be plugged in thereafter. .

In addition, there is one point to be pointed out: WeMo Insight Switch itself will occupy a certain area, so need to consider in advance how to arrange the plug to leave the original stay. After solving these problems, users will find that the WeMo Insight Switch works with various devices is still very straightforward.

First of all, download the WeMo application, then plug the WeMo Insight Switch into the mains outlet and insert the various device plugs into it. Afterwards, the user will see three green Wi-Fi beacons flashing on the smart socket, which means that the device is searching for a signal, and once the green power symbol is lit, it means the device is ready.

With the application open, after completing a number of steps, the user can enter his own price to accurately track costs. In addition, users can add photos for different devices to make it easier to manage when managing multiple devices.

With the WeMo application, users can control home appliances, track energy usage, and customize notification messages. In the device menu in the upper right corner, clicking the appropriate power button turns the power on or off. After performing the corresponding operation, the user can hear a slight click from the socket. The green power indicator is in a steady state during the normal working period of the smart socket, which helps the user to quickly understand its working status. The operation response of turning on and off the power of individual devices is quite rapid, which fully reflects the reliability of the device.

The entire system can operate on 3G and 4G networks. For example, when a user is in a supermarket, he suddenly has to worry about whether he or she forgets to turn off a heating device. At this point, simply open the application and feel free to close it. Users can even control the lighting of their living room thousands of miles away, to avoid giving the uninvited guests an impression of long-term absence in the home.

If the user inserts a washing machine, television, or boiling water plug into the smart plug and sets the default mode to "off," the application will display a "standby" state until the user actually turns on the devices.

In the application of the main screen, the user can view the general situation regarding the energy consumption of these devices, such as the energy consumption of a day when the boiling water is heated at a constant temperature, or how much electricity is required for the “gentle washing” procedure of the washing machine to be completed once the water temperature is 40 degrees.

Users can also view their average monthly electricity bills, and the longer it takes to use the WeMo Insight Switch, the more accurate this type of data will be.

The above data is based on the real-time status display and can be accurate to the minute, which obviously can indirectly help parents understand how long the children spend on TV or game consoles.

The WeMo app has a special and intimate function, that is: When the device is closed, it can send a notification to the user. In fact, WeMo Insight Switch can identify the status of the device stopped working.

For example, the user may receive a notification prompt immediately after the washing machine finishes the washing procedure or after the boiling water boils the water.

Such notifications can be set on the application's "Rules" page, where users can also create timers to allow specific devices to start at a specific time, and then have the smart socket send a notification when it senses a change in the status of the power switch.

If users need to get rid of the limitations of the WeMo application and achieve more features, they may consider setting up the IFTTT rules themselves, or even try to use them together with other smart home devices such as the Nest thermostat or the Amazon Echo speaker.

In the settings menu of the WeMo application, the user can find the menu item for the IFTTT function. After clicking, the application will prompt accordingly. Users can then set up their own rules, for example, "Turn off the device after xx minutes."

The rules for turning on the heating device when it is detected that the user's mobile phone is positioned not far from home are quite practical, and the idea of ​​having the WeMo Insight Switch working in conjunction with the WeMo Motion Sensor motion sensor is also very good.

Users can even have the WeMo Insight Switch talk to Amazon's Alexa through IFTTT, which makes it possible to control various smart home devices via voice, provided you have an Amazon Echo speaker.

Concerned about the negligence caused by a certain appliance will burn the entire house? In order to save power and frequent switching of an appliance? The area in the home is too large. There are often no rooms in the room but the TV is on. There is a large population in the home. Washing the washing machine from day to night is endless. Belkin WeMo Insight Switch smart sockets can definitely improve the above issues.
