Kasa Smart Mini WiFi Plug
Every parent knows the hassle of trying to get kids or teenagers ready to leave the house. There are so many gadgets that vie for their attention. There are game consoles, the television and more.
It can be a chore to motivate anyone to get out the door when there’s something entertaining capturing their attention. So usually, a parent ends up rushing to get everyone ready so that they’re not late for work and it’s a time drain – not to mention a mental hassle.
Then, if the young people in your house get home before you do, entertainment calls louder than doing their homework, picking up after themselves or helping out around the house.
You can put parental locks on the game consoles and unplug the television in order to keep everyone on track, so you get out of the house on time. But kids know how to get around that.
You could try lecturing your kids on the importance of being on time and stopping game play or watching TV when they need to do something, but everyone knows that really doesn’t go over well.
Or, you could get a Smart Plug. The Kasa Smart Mini WiFi Plug allows you to be the one in control. You’ll be able to shut off entertainment and other electrical devices from wherever you are just using your phone.
All you have to do is tap into the Kasa app and you’re all set. You also have the ability to use the voice control feature. This feature can work with Google Assistant, Alexa and Microsoft Cortana.
So all you have to do is just instruct it with something like, “Alexa, turn off the television.”
The plug is designed small enough so that you can install two in one outlet with no hub required.
The device gives you the ability to turn gadgets off or on whether you’re home or away. Plus, you can schedule times for various devices when you want them to come on or go off.
There is a switch on the side of the plug that will allow you to turn them off if you need to. You can use the gadget to shut off the game controllers, the TV and you have the option to set a schedule for the entertainment devices.
You can use the voice activation feature to turn a coffeepot on as soon as you get out of bed, then go take your shower or whatever you do for your morning routine. You can turn lights on or off in any room of the house – even if you’re in a different room.
You can get into bed at night and instruct Alexa to have the devices turn off the lights.
If you’re ready to put a stop to trying to convince everyone to get out the door or to get off the electronic entertainment to get school work done, you can put convenience and control into your life with this smart plug.
