There are 3 smart plugs, 2 smart usb ports that you can activate/deactivate as you wish. The third has multiple possible states indicating whether the wifi connectivity is operational.



Cons

Download the apc home app, this app has a user rating of 2. I feel sorry for anyone who buys this device not having any prior experience with connecting home devices to wifi networks by way of apps. Spent over 8 hours today attempting to get alexa to ...  Read More

When integrated with alexa it has a delay of at least 30-60 seconds to carry out the commands. A little green spinning wheel and then an error message saying the connection timed out and oh joy, i'm back at step 7 again. They're answer to me was to ke...  Read More

    The apc smart plug power strip is a very high quality power strip but it does not come without some minor flaws


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The instructions are pretty clear on how to setup this power strip and i was able to connect to the wifi and able to set up the app pretty quickly with all smart plugs added and customized inside the app

    While the setup was simple and it simply works it is indeed a hassle to troubleshoot when something goes wrong


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I do not believe it was a huge nuisance but it would have been helpful to have a troubleshooting guide or instructions available to troubleshoot this
