It’s back folks. Today only, as part of its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is now offering the TP-Link Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Outdoor Plug with Matter at $17.99. Shipping is free for My Best Buy members (free to join here) or opt for free in-store pickup. Very similar models started to launch earlier this year (and currently go for $22 on sale at Amazon) from the brand to deliver an outdoor smart plug solution to folks ahead of summer with the multi smart home platform Matter support. Best Buy is now delivering 40% in savings to match the all-time low and our previous mention on what is essentially a nearly identical dual Matter outdoor plug. It is also one of the most affordable from a brand we feature around here on a regular basis.
If you’re looking to automate your outdoor setup – lighting or otherwise this summer, this is a seriously notable price on a Matter-equipped solution.
The ability to turn on/off or schedule your patio lighting, for example, is a wonderful experience, especially when you can do it hands-free with Siri or one of the other well-known voice assistants. And this plug is compatible with Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Samsung SmartThings Matter gear for a more unified and hassle-free setup.
There are two individually addressable outlets here wrapped inside of an IP65 waterproof housing to protect them (and your gear) from the elements. TP-Link’s Away Mode is a nice feature too – “automatically turns devices on and off at different times to give the appearance that someone is home.”
Swing by our smart home hub for even more of this week’s best deals including Govee’s 3-in-1 outdoor smart plug, these Linkind Matter-ready smart plugs, and this wildly low early Prime Day offer on Blink’s Video Doorbell and an Echo Pop at just $35 ($110 value).
TP-Link Matter Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Outdoor Plug features:
Take control of your outdoor lighting or devices with the Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Outdor Plug. The independent outlets allow you to individually control up to 2 devices through your smartphoone via the Tapo app or with you voice through compatiable voice assistants; Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Samsung SmartThings. Utilize the Scheduling or Away Mode features to automatically turn lights or device on/off.
