Power consumption & related costs of the plugs themselves, for anyone who wants to know or calculate...
The PDF Datasheet says they use between 1.48 - 1.88W, so for simplicity let us round it off to 2W of power...
2W of power equates to 2p per day if left on 24/7 or 60p per month or £7.20 per year - for each plug This is calculating @ £0.35 a kWh, the upper limit of all energy companies currently: nimblefins.co.uk/ave…-uk
The equation-calculation The energy E in kilowatt-hours (kWh) per day is equal to the power P in watts (W) times number of usage hours per day T divided by 1000 watts per kilowatt E(kWh/day) = P(W) × T(h/day) ÷ 1000(W/kW) Multiplying the above result by the cost in pence (35), gives the rate per day of each plug

Good price but the p110 are energy monitoring whereas the photo shows are p100 variant which aren't.

Thanks, I’ve removed the mention of energy monitoring from the description.

Let's hope Amazon do these for the same price on Black Friday. Heat.

This has been available previously for £17.98 in Costco. So if not in rush then maybe it will come down especially on BF

Aren't these the plugs with the horrific access requirements? I.e you basically agree that they can access ALL of your data including WiFi passwords etc?
Wouldn't touch this with a barge pole.

Do you miss not having the power monitoring feature?

Pretty sure the P100s don't have the energy monitoring feature. That's the P110's. Still good price for these though 🔥
Edit P100s not T100s (edited)

Reading through this post , I am more interested in the validity of the comments made about what these smart plugs report back to the manufacturer! I have tried looking for information elsewhere , but find nothing saying that such plugs give manufacturers access to information.
I don’t own any smart plugs as yet , but am very interested to read more and find out suggested security steps/ settings to ensure that my information remains secure. Anyone have any views / information ??

They still had them in at Gateshead last week, you can always ring the Oldham branch and ask them to check for you if they have them.
