Lumary Smart WiFi Outlet
Voice Control And Remotely Control Your Smart Home With Lumary Smart Outlets
Some may say the ability to voice control everyday appliances with Lumary’s Smart Outlet is making me lazy. From my perspective, being able to say, “Alexa, turn on office fan” or “Okay Google, turn off porch light” makes me a much more efficient person. To each their own!
No more nights when I have to get out of the chair to switch on the ceiling fan that is NEARLY 7 FEET above my head. And if I prefer not to speak I can simply grab my phone, open up the Lumary app, and manage any of the devices plugged into my smart outlets. 😜
Still not convinced you’d like the convenience of smart outlets in your life? Read on to learn more about the Lumary Smart WiFi Outlet.
Features Of The Lumary Smart Outlet
Smart wall outlets work just like standard wall outlets but with some obvious enhancements. With voice control, app control, and scheduling capabilities upgrading to a Lumary Smart Outlet is a simple choice. Here is a quick features breakdown…
Remote App Control
Use the Smart Life or Lumary app on your Android or iOS phone to remotely control your Lumary Smart Outlet anytime from anywhere. A quick check on your app will provide peace of mind that you turned off coffee machine or curling iron before rushing to work in the morning. Or turn on your lights before you arrive home to a pre-lit home.
Set Schedules and Timers
Both of the two sockets as well as the USB ports combined can be controlled independently. This allows for separate timers and schedules for multiple devices plugged into the Lumary Smart Outlet. By providing each socket and the USB ports specific names in the Lumary app you can manage them how you would like. This is great for lamps, fans, space heaters, coffee machines, or any ordinary device that you want to make “smarter.”
Voice Control
Both of the two sockets and the USB ports can also be controlled with your voice using either Alexa or the Google Assistant.

If you are ready to build a more connected home than smart outlets are a good way to go. Unlike smart plugs (which I’m a big fan) the wifi connectivity is built right into the smart outlets. And they look like an ordinary outlet, not an outlet that has a smart plug that you then plug your appliance into.
Dive into the adulthood of smart home devices by picking up a Lumary Smart Outlet for about $25 bucks.
