Best/Cheapest Outlet for SmartThings?

[eleazar]

I will definitely do what I can to help flesh out the wiki

Do you happen to know the answer to my question above?

My only question…can anyone confirm whether the Dragontech PA-100 support energy consumption monitoring? I’ve searched high and low, and I can’t find any mention of it.

I’m guessing it doesn’t support it, since I don’t see it mentioned anywhere, but I figured I would check with you since I’ve seen you recommend it a few times

It does not. This is just a basic value device. I’ve recommended it when people were looking for a budget price Z wave plus repeater, as it is one of the least expensive for that purpose.

Great. Thanks for the info!

Hi all,

I’m looking for wall plugs but for Europe (220v). All I see are mostly for US using 120v. Can someone recommend me a wall plug for Europe ?

Thank you.

As you’ve noticed, the device selection is different in different regions.

There is a section of this forum for those using the UK version of the SmartThings hub. That is where you will find discussions of EU Devices .

For example, see the following thread (this is a clickable link)

Cheap Plugs? (UK) (zigbee or EU zwave)

As of October 2016, what does the UK community suggest are the the cheapest zigbee plugs that work with the SmartThings hub? With Christmas coming up, I have a number of ‘dumb’ devices in the house that I’d like to control e.g. Christmas Tree / Outside Lights etc… so I think now would be a good time to buy a few more plugs and when Christmas is over I can just move them around the house. Ideally I don’t want to spend an awful lot of money, but at the same time I don’t want a plug that is terrible / overly bulky. So what do you guys suggest?

Thank you so much. Did not notice that.

Best Regards.

Mike, cool graphs! How did you generate the graphs?

[michaelahess (Michael Hess)]

Grafana and influxdb on a Ubuntu VM. There’s a write up on here somewhere. Search for Grafana.

[kkaiser (Karl Kaiser)]

Thanks for the pointer!

[bfellner (Bill)]

What did you use to get the graphs?

[michaelahess (Michael Hess)]

Grafana, search the forums and you’ll find some write ups.

Are the Iris plugs easily discoverable? I don’t want to spend a lot of time setting them up in ST.

[michaelahess (Michael Hess)]

Very. The ST outlet is the same minus the z-wave relay. There is a device type on the forums here with a more fleshed out version, but ST should detect and make it work right out of the gate.
