GE makes a great product, I tried others and they just led to disapointment

Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2019

Personal Experience:
This spring I set up some patio string lights so my family wouldn't have to use our flood lights at night. After getting the lights set up I wanted to add them to a smart switch so I could use Alexa to turn the lights on and off. Originally I purchased the iHome iSP100 Wifi Outdoor Smart Plug and was disappointed beyond belief. I have a full review of the iHome product but long story short is that I gave it a 2 star review rather than 1 star because the iHome stilled turned on my lights when I pushed the manual button. After I removed the iHome I went to find a GE smart switch because I already had 5 in my house and I was pleased with their performance. When I received the GE Enbrighten Z-Wave Plus Outdoor Smart Plug Switch it honestly took me more time to unpack the product than it did connecting to my SmartThings Hub. The setup was so simple, plug into wall, have the SmartThings Hub search for a new product, Name new product, Done! I honestly cannot state how easy the GE switch and SmartThings hub were to pair. I have learned my lesson and will not buy poor quality "Smart Products" like the iHome products. GE switches have been 100% reliable when connected to my SmartThings hub.

Recommend:
Yes, if you value your time don't buy other crap just to come back to this like I did.

Pros:
Easy setup
Worked the first time
Good build quality
Designed for outdoors
Connected to Alex in less than 5 minutes from when I took it out of the box (honestly)

Cons:
Cost $5 more than iHome (but I wasted more than $5 of my time trying to get the iHome to work)

Works perfectly with SmartThings. Good for damp locations but not meant to be rained or snowed on.

Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2018

Verified Purchase

Previously, I was using an Aeotec switch not made for outdoors to control things like my Christmas lights. I loosely wrapped it in plastic wrap to protect it from the elements, and haven't had any issues yet. When the price dropped on this product, I decided to pick one up since this one was made to be outside. The instructions say it is okay for damp locations, but not where it will be exposed to water or snow directly. Well, I guess I will still be wrapping it in plastic to be safe.

The outlet has a nice, thick rubber seal on it to protect the outlet when not in use. It also has a mounting hole and comes with a wall anchor and screw, for mounting it to a wall and keeping it in place.

This paired perfectly in SmartThings, and can now be controlled like I had my other Christmas Lights outlet. I usually have my lights turn on at sunset, off at midnight, back on at 5am, and off again at sunrise. Although I am not using this full-time yet, I tested it in my outdoor GFI outlet to make sure the hub can communicate with it at a relatively long distance and the hub had no problem communicating with it.

This product is a must have for anyone who wants to safely control outdoor lights, fountains, etc. via their Z-wave hub.

Tip for Pairing - Must be Close

Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

It is my understanding that during the pairing process only, the devices need to be very close to each other. Once they’re paired you’ll get the full range plus mesh networking functionality. I was told this had to do with pairing security as the devices are performing their handshake under low power/range. This was also the case with this device. Once I hooked it to an extension cord and brought it near my controller it paired instantly. I previously tried at the closest outlet and it didn’t work. After pairing it has considerable range and works perfectly. I just wanted to mention this for those who are having trouble pairing. Note this is easier to perform with this device than with a switch or outlet because it can be plugged directly into extension cord.

For switches and outlets I made an extension cord with exposed conductors to bring the devices close and have had good success pairing every device. Just be sure to wire the extension cord adapter thru a nonmetallic jbox prior to plugging in so you’re not exposed to the current on the side terminals of switch/outlet.

Works great for Christmas lights

Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2020

Verified Purchase

I got this to integrate my outdoor Christmas lights with my Smartthings hub so I could control them without using traditional timers.

Setup was pretty easy. I plugged it into a wall outlet near my hub so it would have an easier time of find the hub. The biggest issue with setup that made me actually think I got a dud is the power button was nearly impossible to press. I finally figured it out after several tries. This is why I am knocking off one star. The power button should have been better designed.

Over the Christmas season though, once setup, it's never had a hiccup, never shown as disconnected or missing and has never failed to turn things on and off as scheduled.

Great Z-wave outdoor switch

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2019

Verified Purchase

I have 2 of these & ordered a 3rd one to control outdoor lights. These install very easily as Z-wave devices on my Qolsys IQ2 alarm panel. I can turn on/off the switch via the IQ2 panel or remotely via Alarm.com.

Yes, I could have purchased a different, cheaper power strip with day/night timer. But I love to be able to set schedules to turn on/off the switch and remotely control it.

Just wish it had 2 outlets like I've seen with some other smart Wi-Fi switches, but other than that, works great.

I do recommend this plug. I have installed it on a backyard tree. It's been there for 2 years now, and didn't have any problems.

The alexa integration and response is really quick. I use smartthings and the hub is far from the plug, and the signal is just fine.

Long distance Zwave connection

Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2018

Verified Purchase

I connected this to my smartthings hub then put it behind my big shop / garage where my landscape lighting transformer is all the while being very skeptical that the zwave mesh would penetrate the heavy stucco walls and reach back there. IT WORKS PERFECT. I am talking 90 feet to the nearest zwave repeater (zwave plus plug in the master bedroom) through a bunch of obstacles. Setup was near instantaneous, speed of response is great. I have zero complaints. I tries some of the cheaper z wave devices with nothing but trouble. These are more expensive but so worth it.

Solid build, very reliable

Reviewed in Canada on December 30, 2018

Verified Purchase

Let me start with only complaint -- the price. Maybe I would expect after so many years that a zwave is out that things should come down in price. Neeeope. Maybe it's the licensing.. or lack of supply. Maybe this product is so well made the price is justified.
And I guess it doesn't matter because I'm still buying these plugs so let's get on with the review.

I mean, they work. Always. In the winter, minus a zillion, one solid inch of frozen rain. Buried in snow. Pouring rain. Powering 20w of lights or 1500w of heated snow melting mats. They pair easily, though I can only vouch for SmartThings. I've been using these almost 5 years with no issues.

It's on the bulky side, but is very solid. If form factor is a real issue there is also a zwave outlet option which I will review once I test it.

Upgraded to include the z-wave functionality. This unit was easy to install and setup. Product looks great. I've connected this with another smart sensor so when I'm in the garage and out of its line of sight, the lights don't turn off on me.

cette prise fonctionne plutôt bien mais à -20C le petit bouton mou en plastique sur la face durcit et elle n'est plus capable de changer d'état.
On entend commuter dedans mais ça veut plus rien faire. Je vais essayer de faire un protecteur pour ce bouton afin de l'isoler un peu et voir si ça corrige ce problème sans couper la liaison zwave
