There are plenty of good reasons to consider your options for plugging stuff in. These include physical accessibility, availability of outlets and even reducing energy waste from standby mode. When you plug into a smart plug or smart outlet, you add controllability to previously uncontrollable things — and the ability to monitor their energy use.

Just plug a smart plug into an outlet, sync it with the smartphone app, and you can control whatever is plugged in from anywhere, even away from home.

Smart plugs can make your home more efficient and your life more convenient.
