smart outlet
App-controlled power point
A smart outlet is an electrical outlet that can be controlled remotely, typically through a smartphone app or voice assistant.
Smart outlets allow users to turn devices on or off, set schedules, and monitor energy usage without physically touching the outlet: I put the Christmas lights on a smart outlet so they turn on at sunset.
Most connect via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
