WeMo Switch + Motion
Motion detection was a little sluggish
App wasn't always responsive when creating rules
Physical size can impede adjoining outlets
IFTTT automations weren't quite as reliable as we'd like
And it was a challenge to find ones that we'd actually use regularly
Easy setup. Can remotely switch appliances on or off based on time or motion. Modular system can accommodate multiple switches and motion detectors.
Expensive. App frequently crashes. iOS device support only

No. Unless Belkin releases updates that make it work, these things are just taking up outlets in your home, preventing you from using them as you normally would. This is like adding an extra doorknob to a door. Except it usually wont turn. Stick with the...
Abstract: Sold in two different versions, Belkin's new WeMo Switch ($50) and WeMo Switch + Motion ($100) offer iOS users the ability to control wall outlet-connected home electronics from afar. Each unit comes with a Wi-Fi-enabled power adapter that can be used...
While more costly than some options, programmable timer switches or timer plugs for instance, the WeMo system is a worthy option, thanks to its simplicity and scalability. While it may not keep the bad guys from your doors or windows, it does offer some p...

Sicher ist das WeMo Switch + Motion mit einem UVP von 99,- Euro kein Schnäppchen. Einige von Euch werden auch sagen, dass die eigene Kaffeemaschine per Zeitschaltuhr ein- und ausgeschaltet werden kann und die haben recht. Aber mit dem Set habt ihr bedeut...
Einfache Installation, Steuerung über das Internet von unterwegs möglich, Vielfältige Möglichkeiten durch IFTTT, Unbegrenzte Erweiterbarkeit
Recht teuer
Die Kaffeemaschine kann man natürlich auch per Zeitschaltuhr einschalten, dann spart man sich das Geld für das “Belkin WeMo Switch + Motion”-Set. Aber mit dem Set habt ihr bedeutend mehr Möglichkeiten, um eure elektrischen Geräte zu steuern und gleichzei...
Installation alambiquée, Installation très pénible dans certains cas, Application mal conçue et pas stable, Manque d'explications et d'accompagnement
