Smart sockets or smart plugs are the first basic step in creating a smart home. There are so many different uses for this easy to use technology, that you’ll never know how you survived without them! If you have never used one before, this is a device that sits between the electrical outlet and whatever device you are plugging into it. They can be purchased in a variety of shapes, sizes, and different specifications, but all come with a control option, which is usually a timer. This is what really makes the smart socket a smart choice because it allows you to set a plug to turn off at any pre-determined time. Try out different uses for your smart socket to maximize your smart home technology.
