The TP-Link Smart Plug Mini is an outlet plug adapter that makes it possible to control a plugged in device without having to physically interact with the unit in-person. This is because the TP-Link Smart Plug Mini instantly adds WiFi connectivity that doesn't require a hub or bridge in order to be operated. This allows users to control the outlet plug adapter from afar to help with cutting electricity costs and keeping the home secure.
The TP-Link Smart Plug Mini can be used in as many or as few outlets as desired thanks to the slim, compact design of the unit. It won't inhibit the use of another outlet on the wall and can be used around the home in a discreet manner.
