Improved connectivity and setup issues.

User reviews

Excellent for well and pond management

I have recently fitted two sockets.
One in our garden well and the other near our pond. The pond pump circulates for 3 hours per day and the well pump powers on for 0.5 hour to top up the pond water.

Easy to fit, although I did have a problem connecting to our Google WiFi points which operate at 2.4 and 5.0 GHz. However, BG have provided an alternative, the AP mode. You just connect directly to the Smart Socket from your iPhone and then once connected, you switch the iPhone back to your home WiFi and the app takes care of the rest.

Excellent product!

Magic!

I can turn the outside socket on and off at will using an app from wherever in the world. Or the sofa. It’s witchcraft 😁

Avoid like the plague

So I had things set up and working nicely, but then I stupidly went and got a new Wi-Fi installed, so I have a working Wi-Fi with a dedicated 2.4 GHz network. I’ve got a password with no special characters out for that one cause they don’t tell you when you enter the password only doesn’t work., and still nothing. Oh, and there’s literally nowhere in the app that you can actually get through to somebody for support so there is zero support like zero none not at all an email address not a postal address nothing. Absolute useless Pile of something that I’m not allowed to write here.

Working great for our outdoor pool pump and heat source pump.

Easy Set-Up

Once I got my head around setting the first one up the other two I bought were easy.
Just make sure you have a good Wi-Fi signal.
