These devices offer an easy, low-cost method to track exactly how much power your electronics consume.

Many believe their outdated appliances don’t waste much electricity, but without measuring, it's hard to know for sure. A smart plug connects between your appliance and the wall outlet and tracks real time energy usage through a mobile app or web dashboard.

This gives you precise data on how many watts an appliance draws while it's on, in standby mode, or even when it's off but still plugged in.

Many are shocked to learn how much electricity gadgets suck up in sleep mode.

Even devices you think are off—like stereos or printers—keep drawing current.

You can monitor nightly consumption patterns with real-time tracking.

Armed with this information, you can make smarter decisions—like unplugging devices that don’t need constant power or using a power strip with a switch to cut power to multiple gadgets at once.

You can program devices to operate only during specific hours.

Maybe your fan stays on longer than necessary.

Programming an automatic shut-off cuts unnecessary usage while preserving comfort.

Evaluate energy performance before making a purchase.

If you’re considering buying a new refrigerator, plug it in temporarily with a Matter smart outlet plug and monitor its energy use over a few days to compare it with your current model.

Advanced models calculate monthly expenses using your utility’s per-kWh rate.

It converts watts into dollars, revealing the true cost of idle devices.

Budget-conscious households and eco-friendly users find this data transformative.

Your zombie devices could be costing more than you think.

They’re designed for anyone—even non-tech users.

They’re plug and play, work with most standard outlets, and often integrate with voice assistants like Alexa or Google Home.
