There's a good possibility I will be getting more of these outlets as they work so well and they're so easy to set up. Typically press the button for 5 second for a soft reset. (Button location varies by device.) If prompted to reset the device say "no" or I think you will do a hard reset. Connect to the WiFi SSID the device is now broadcasting. Go back to the app and continue the "setup" to select your new WiFi SSID.
The good news is it's a quality product that works. It needs to be thinner, and it needs to not obstruct the whole wall outlet just to plug it in. A few changes like using the side of the switch to plug in your lamp, even a 2 prong outlet instead of 3 prongs since most lamps only have 2 prong plugs. A smaller, slimmer and cheaper switch would be appreciated.
Change Network/Wi-fi on Smart Plugs
Interest will be charged to your account from the purchase date if the balance is not paid in full within 6 months. Is it possible to change all the Wi-fi APs without resetting the switch. I am upgrading my Wi-fi with a deco and want to change the SSID at the same time but I don’t really want to have to factory reset all my smart devices? With the Smart Switches and Plugs you can do two types of reset. 5 second soft reset and 10 second hard reset.
I bought this for my Mom for Christmas. I set it up for her to use with Alexa to turn a floor lamp off and on. The lamp was in a corner behind an end table so it was hard for her to reach the switch when she wanted to use it. It did take a bit of technical savvy to get it up and running so wise to keep that in mind before purchasing. My Mom is 80+ and never could have done it herself. That aside, she loves it and it makes her life easier so I'm happy too.
Kasa Smart Outdoor Plug
It took a few tries to get it working, but once I figured out how to connect it to my wi-fi in the app, the rest was simple and I bought more. It's nice being able to control lights im my home thru my cellphone. I can also turn them on/off outside in the car.
I have also added these devices to my Alexa Echo, so she can also control them in addition to me being able to control them from anywhere with my phone. Setup was very easy using the Smart Life app. The Smart Life app is used with the outlets. Google Home was also easy to set up by linking the Google home app to Smart Life. Setup has to be done in Smart Life and Google Home separately.

Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini is the best way to control any appliance from anywhere. Select PayPal Credit at checkout to have the option to pay over time. Hi Keith, We absolutely understand that. This is why this information can be found if the products user guide. If you cannont find it or you do not see a user guide available please let me know so I can have that corrected.
See the seller’s listing for full details and description of any imperfections. Will usually ship within 3 business days of receiving cleared payment. Electrical outlets in Germany take different style plugs than the ones in the US.
Control Your Home from Anywhere
I am really disappointed that there is not a PC application to control the modules. I will probably look at some other options that have PC control & scheduling capabilities. Will usually ship within 2 business days of receiving cleared payment. The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear, but is fully operational and functions as intended. This item may be a floor model or store return that has been used.
You would use the 5 second soft reset to reset the device with out losing the settings on. Members who are knowledgeable about this destination and volunteer their time to answer travelers' questions. Set it up easily; downloaded the app on my android. The large size of the device does block the second power outlet on my wall socket.
Outlets can be controlled by Google Home or the Smart Life app I installed on my phone. I was able to turn on the lights while I was away from home using my phone. Timers can also be used on the outlets through the Smart Life app.
@Carlif would be real helpful if you then provided the instructions to perform the different types of resets......
Still, it does work and is an easy setup, so I would recommend it for now, until a new revised slimmer 2 prong switch is available. The HS-105 corrects the outlet problem, but the others issues also exist with it and at a higher cost. These smart outlets are super easy to set up after you upload the Smart Home app.
You can get a plug adapter in any travel section for under $5. The seller has not specified a shipping method to Germany. Qualifying purchases could enjoy No Interest if paid in full in 6 months on purchases of $99 or more.
