How did you get that price? It's showing me £12.85 for two? Thanks.

Sorry, got it. Have to use the D points. Thx.

IBrows89 · 17-08-2018 10:23am

Just got 2 of these, great price. No idea what I'll use them for but can't turn it down for that price. Thanks OP!

Cheers OP.

Didn’t need.

Bought 2.

The essence of a good BA

I have 2 already in use (actually the older S20 model) bought 3 then realised about the D point and bout another 3! At this stage I think i'll have more wifi switches than sockets!

What are you using them for? Only thing i can think of is controlling lights.

I lost the remote to my TV and the switch broke on the TV, so I had to unplug the TV each time to turn it off. I can now just ask Alexa to do it.

I also have a radio in an awkward place in the kitchen. I can ask Alexa to out the radio on. If, go one better and get a Bluetooth bar connected to Alexa and you can play Spotify through it, without leaving it on all the time.

Electric blanket is a great one as Basq mentioned. Also, if you have a dehumidifier or plug in heater, you can use it with them aswell!

If you use Plex, set up some webhooks with homebridge and get it to turn off your lamp and turn on some mood lighting behind tv

Eh, would the food not be rancid sitting all day in the Airfryer, or what would you be cooking?

Sure, he might only be gone from house for 2 hours, he hardly works there

Doh!
True enough.

My Airfryer doesn't work like that, though - the digital version requires you to set timer and temp on powering on - presumaby the analogue version does, though..

Roberto_gas · 17-08-2018 7:41pm

Don't forget max output wattage of 2200 watts before using it for any devices !! Dont want to damage the plug !

Just be aware that these are only rated to 10 amp. High current devices such as rapid boil kettles, heaters, etc... cannot be used with them.

I am surprised that they have not designed these for 13 amp devices. The previous S20 version is also only rated to 10 amp.

vectra · 18-08-2018 1:35am

Just ordered another 3.
No idea what I will do with them

I bought 6 which came to just under $69 (€60ish), will this me on the customs radar?

Not sure who they ship with, but certainly you're liable - should have split the order in 3..

If you get on to them through your account and either cancel and re-order or ask to have order split in 3.
I bought 2x2 @ €11.56 each order.
How did you pay that much?

Cancel and reorder.Order 3 and then use the points from that on second 3.No customs and save a few cents.

Use a different email address and sign up again if you've lost your discount on existing account.

Is running a PC and 2 monitors attached OK for 10 amp?

mrcheez · 18-08-2018 6:14pm

Anyone know how to use the points?

I just get a message saying "You have 150 D Points (of which 149 D Points can be used for this order)."

and then an empty input box underneath.

This is on Chrome if that matters.

yabadabado · 18-08-2018 7:05pm

Yeah I just typed in the number of points and it worked.

Payton · 18-08-2018 7:13pm

Thanks OP, i picked up 3 and then another 3 so hopefully the shipping wont take long.

It's a weird way of doing it as normally you just have a "use your points" option (like on Amazon).

Didn't even realise that you could type in that box

xpletiv · 20-08-2018 3:49pm

wonder when these will ship out... im still at 'processessing'

CaSCaDe711 · 20-08-2018 4:58pm

Ordered 3 last week, but have no idea what I'll end up using them for

Wondering what would you people here be setting these up to do?

Ive my house kitted out with these, theres a sonoff thread over in DIY somewhere.

Set up on the ewelink app on your phone, Pair with alexa and google home, assign voice commands.

Ive my immersion, tv, electric blanket, lamps all on an app. Control them with voice commands through alexa dots or with my phone through the app from anywhere in the world once you have internet.

Yep, mine is still at 'processing' too. Doesn't look good

clint_silver · 20-08-2018 6:03pm

to be fair these are a GREAT bargain, the sonoff basics are about a fiver delivered can get them and the others from ebay, (this ebay shop is just an example)

https://www.ebay.ie/itm/Sonoff-ITEAD-Smart-Home-WiFi-Wireless-Switch-Module-Fr-Apple-Android-APP-Control/332599444186?hash=item4d7078c2da:m:mFtlQcz6O06xiL1wij21rVw

Ive done my whole house with them, but messy having to cut lamp wires, crimping and screwdrivers, for 2.50e extra for a uk plug, this is a no-brainer.

head over to the sonoff page for ideas and help installing.

Correct.

mrcheez · 20-08-2018 11:52pm

phew glad I ordered two plugs separately

wallaby72 · 21-08-2018 9:22am

I queried with customer support before they had shipped mine to ensure the paid value was displayed on the package. They responded with this:

Thank you for contacting us.We checked that you have 2 orders on our website.
Please rest assured that we have declared your goods at the value that you paid.

Thank you for your patience and kind support.

Do you mind me asking where you diagnosed before you became a soldier or after. I went for it years ago and passed everything I needed to but on one of the forms I was in two minds about putting down the Diabetes. Figured I would never be able to hide it so wrote it down and then all of a sudden I failed my medical but no explanation given (even though upto this I appeared to be ahead of the curve). Years later I was told by a person I knew in the army I wouldn't be allowed even if I had been diagnosed after as I wouldn't be OK for sending abroad.

Shipping email says my 3 cost $44.97, Order Confirmation was $23.64. I'll be having fun with customs come delivery time.
