Use frients to turn electronics on or off from anywhere at anytime

Has it ever happened that you are in a hurry to leave for the day and you accidentally leave the stove on after cooking breakfast? It’s an easy mistake to make, but one that can cause a lot of damage as it is a significant fire hazard.

With the frient Smart Plug Mini and Smart Cable in your smart home system, you won’t need to worry about left-on irons or stoves anymore, as you will be able to turn devices on and off remotely via your smartphone.

Automate your lights with smart sensors

The remote switches help you keep control of your home, as you can turn appliances on and off when you need them and when you do not, or turn on the lights to scare off burglars while you’re away on vacation.

In combination with a Motion Sensor or Entry Sensor, the Smart Plug Mini can also be used to automate lighting in your home. This way, you won't have to search for the switch in the dark as the light will automatically turn on when you come home in the dark - and turn itself right off again when you leave.

Track and lower your electricity consumption

The Smart Plug Mini and the Smart Cable can also help you become more energy-aware, as they also serve as electricity meters. This way, you can track power-hungry appliances to turn them off when needed, helping you save money and reduce your energy consumption. Both your wallet and the environment will thank you!

However, if you are looking for a smart way to track the electricity consumption for your whole household, then check out the popular frient Electricity Meter Interface that lets you monitor your total power usage in real-time.

The Zigbee Smart Plug Mini and the Smart Cable work with Homey, SmartThings, and OK Google.
