QUBO 16A Wifi + BT Smart Plug from Hero Group, Energy Monitoring, Suitable for large appliances like ACs, Geysers & Water Pumps (Voice Control with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant)

Very happy after purchasing the plug. It is more helpful and can automate your time consuming activities like water motor, mobile charging, ev vehicle charging etc. it prevents over charging electronic gadgets and protect battery.I'm using it for my misting system for plants. I set a schedule for it on wifi and it works even device is not connected to wifi network.App interface is super friendly younger to elder ones can handle it very well.Good device, one can be very quickly dependent on it.

I have been using this smart plug from Qubo for almost 2 months. I am able to optimise the heating time of my geyser there by reducing waste of energy. Thisc can be paired with Alexa which makes it very useful to control using voice commands. The Qubo app also provides scheduling feature to control the turn on time & turn off time. But I recommend to use it paired with Alexa which give more flexibility. This can also be controlled from anywhere if connected to WiFi. However, the Qubo app integration still needs improvement. The status are not updated realtime. Need to re-lauch the app every time to get the accurate status. Overall, a very good product to optimise the usage of high power consuming appliances like geyser which generally we forget to switch off after use and consumes a lot of power.

Just steer clear of this one mate. Wanna know why? Here's why:1) The app is a steaming pile of freshly made excretion. Features? None working seamlessly... But it will bombard you with advertisements about more Qubo products as soon as you open the app. Read on to find out why you would hate that immediately after trying to use this one thing you bought.2) The energy monitoring although is realtime but it's just a fancy dumb energymeter at best. Want any useful statistics out of this? Better keep your eyes peeled on the screen and jot down the readings on a piece of paper because all this will show you is the cumulative energy used on a given day and that's it.3) Even if all you want is to remotely switch it on or off, you can't because this manufactured e-waste never connects to wifi reliably. What bloody use remains then?So yeah just spend that extra ₹100 and go for the Tapo P110 (speaking from experience). I would not go for this even if someone gave it to me for free.

The build quality is good the app feature is also good remote control feature is working very good and its compatible for every devices it's a value for money and switch is functionally working very good

The product maybe satisfactory but may not suit your circumstances ie. 5amps plug points are generally all over a house but 16amps plug points are usually restricted for exto heater in a toilet, kitchen or inverter connections. These 16amp plug points may not receive the wifi signal and hence cannot be used "smartly". This was my experience with first received plug AND it's replacement.Qubo and Amazon have kindly accepted to refund my amount.Just think and assess number of walls / metal objects blocking wifi and strength of wifi signal before buying, to avoid inconvenience.To Qubo my suggestion is to improve the product with a built-in antenna or something like that.
