Lighting control is one of the greatest advantages of home automation. The devices used are usually inexpensive and allow great comfort, such as being able to turn the lights on or off not without clicking on the wall, but without having to touch anything, just with your voice. This is what voice assistants like Google or Amazon allow.

Power control a light with your mobileWhether with voice or with an app, you need a device that connects this light to the portable device. Normally it is a smart bulb, although a socket also works, especially if the lamp has several bulbs, since the change would be much more expensive and inconvenient, since several devices would have to be connected via Wi-Fi.

But if we want to make multiple lights smart, or several electrical devices, they do not have to be lamps, it is also possible to do it with just one device. For this, devices have been created such as this Ledvance power strip which can be purchased at Lidl for 31.99 dollars, benefiting from a discount of almost 25%.

Only this device allows you to control three devices intelligently because it has three conventional Schuko anchors to connect the mobile charger, a lamp, the router. It can also be used in the kitchen with appliances like a coffee maker or toaster. The power strip features both overload protection and surge protection, as well as a 1.5 meter wall connection cablewhich will save you from having to put it right next to an outlet if you don’t want to.

Each of the three outlets is independently controlled, being able to turn them off, on or program them as if they were unconnected sockets. But on top of that, there are two USB-A ports that can also be controlled by voice or app, but are group controlled. In other words, both USB-A connectors are always controlled at the same time and it is not possible to turn one on while the other is off. The application, called WiFi LEDVANCE SMART+, It can be installed on Android phones and iPhones and of course, voice assistants can be configured to control each device.
