Community Reviews

Kasa's outdoor Wi Fi smart plug is a simple, reliable way to automate holiday lights, patio strings, fountains, and other outdoor decorations. It works well with Alexa, Google Home, and the Kasa app, and the app can handle schedules, dusk routines, and multiple devices in one place. Long term outdoor use is a strong theme, with several years of trouble free operation in covered or exposed setups. The main caution is durability in harsher weather, since one unit developed a fault after New England winters and rain. A practical pick for basic outdoor scheduling if you do not need Matter or Apple HomeKit.

  • The plug can schedule and be controlled through Alexa or the Kasa app for outdoor holiday lighting.

  • The plug has supported long-term outdoor use for holiday lights under covered areas with limited exposure to elements.

  • The dimmer-capable version can automate string lights with staged dimming and iPhone shortcut workflows via Alexa integration.

  • The standard Wi‑Fi version works well with Alexa, Google Home, or the Kasa app without requiring extra Matter hardware.

  • The plug can trip a GFCI when rain hits after extended use in harsh New England conditions.

  • The plug may require turning off during winter to avoid issues, even if it remains plugged in outdoors.

  • One plug reportedly failed after drowning, even though other Kasa plugs continued working outdoors.

I've used this plug the last few years for Christmas decorations, works well, can schedule and shut off with Alexa or the app if needed.
(Like during a snowstorm so the inflatables don't try to inflate with a foot a snow on top of it)
We also have a bunch of Kasa plugs used indoors, nice to everything in one app.

A short while back a deal was posted for the outdoor 2 port model with an ebay link I think for the same price and may still be active. I ordered a couple of those. Also for those that care the two port does support matter.

If you are just using Alexa, Google Home, or the Kasa app directly, the standard Wi-Fi version works perfectly and is super reliable. You only need to spend extra for a Matter-compatible plug if you need to integrate it with Apple HomeKit or want local network control. For basic outdoor schedules like holiday lights, these are great for the price.

i had the 2-plug version of this. After 2 summer / winters in New England, it developed a fault inside and was tripping my GFCI each time it rained. Again, tough conditions, but FYI

I've had this for 5 years and it has been rock solid. I also have the Kasa light switches and indoor plugs. No complaints. I prefer the version that has the dimmer functionality for my string lights, but it is a little more $

I have the dimmer version and it's wonderful. Since it integrates with Alexa, I can set up shortcuts automations on my iPhone (via Virtual Smart Home). Kasa devices are probably the most reliable of all the smart appliances I've used.

I have to agree with all the posts. Had these for years for Christmas lights and they just work. Easy to setup and integrate with the echo. Almost wish I needed more.

EXCELLENT DEAL - and thank you! I snagged the last two they had apparently…

Also FYI - you can manage all the Tapo and TP-LINK devices using the Tapo app only in addition to adding the matter devices to however many hubs you want locally (i mostly use the Tapo app as a last option versus my chaos HomeKit/Home Assistant/Alexa setup).

I have the two plug version of this and have used it for holiday lights outside for the last 7 years or so. It plugs in under a covered porch so limited exposure to elements but not totally unexposed.
