Recommendations - UK multitap power with Thread/Matter support
Recommendations - UK multitap power with Thread/Matter support
I say I'm looking for recommendations, but I'm not even sure if such a thing exists yet... possibly my Google-fu is failing me.
What I'm on the hunt for is a Thread/Matter 4-or-more-gang UK power strip where I can control each socket individually. Zigbee would also be workable, but I'd prefer Thread (not for any technical reason - I just currently don't have any Zigbee kit).
I'm aware of the Eve single socket wall-warts, but they're not exactly cost-effective or compact!
Any recommendations gratefully received :)
There are few generic 4 gang UK plug power strips with Zigbee, they are available key under various brand names. They claim to have individually addressable sockets but I haven’t used them to test it. Here’s an example on Amazon.
I’ve been on the look out myself for a UK power strip with Zigbee and individual power monitoring but there don’t seem to be any for the UK market. I’m having to make do with dumb power strips and individual smart plugs for now.
I have red heard of any Thread based power strips for the UK market yet.
Only individually controlled gang sockets that I've come across were the LIDL ones but unfortunately I don't think they do them anymore.
For individual smart plugs I can see that IKEA do some but I got mine from AliExpress.
