Tapo Smartens Up Home Appliances

Shenzhen, China, September 30, 2019 — Tapo, a promising, new smart home brand, announced the launch of its mini smart Wi-Fi plug — Tapo P100. Imbued with AI technology, the smart plug allows users to easily control and manage traditional devices connected to the plug anywhere on their phones. Simple but elegant, the Tapo P100 plug brings new convenience to households not yet following the smart home trend — all at a competitive price.

 

About Tapo P100

 

Tapo P100 works with a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection and needs no hub, which makes it easy to install and quick to connect. It comes with the Tapo App where users can create an account and set preferences. They can nickname the plugged-in device, give it an icon, and write down its location. Another feature rooted in the Tapo App includes remote control, where users can control the plug from anywhere.

 

The smart plug’s scheduler and timer are also useful to facilitate any lifestyle. They can be used to create weekly schedules and countdown plans. All connected electronics will automatically work at users’ preset times.

 

Tapo P100’s most significant feature, however, is its Away Mode. Just as the name suggests, this feature is designed for families away from home. By turning on Away Mode on the Tapo App, users designate periods of time (e.g., 8 pm to midnight, repeating every day). Then, any lamp plugged into the smart plug will turn on and off at random intervals, suggesting someone’s home and making any would-be intruder think twice.

 

Tapo P100 is built to bring convenience. Setup is easy enough. Users simply download the free app and follow its instructions. The unique Bluetooth onboarding technology makes setup even simpler for faster connections (within 20 seconds) and eliminates the trouble of pairing problems. The Tapo plug also has a compact design that won’t block adjacent outlets.

The smart plug works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, supporting voice control such as, "Hey Google, turn on the lamp."

 

With a highly competitive price, the Tapo mini Wi-Fi smart plug is the ideal budget smart plug that’s affordable, space-saving, and intelligent.
