Today, we have for review something that we are not used to associating with Ezviz, a camera manufacturer. And that is a smart plug under a T31 product code, which comes in 3 versions for the US, UK, and Europe. The one we have is European; the difference lies only in the exact plug construction. We will see what it is capable of, answer the question of why do need it, activate and test it practically.
The Device’s Intent
Basically, this is a device that lets you control your appliance’s energy consumption remotely and monitor exactly how much power a specific appliance connected through this plug is using — and ultimately, how much that costs you.
What you’re actually getting with the Ezviz Plug is detailed electricity consumption statistics, along with the ability to turn the connected appliance on or off remotely via a smartphone app. You can also set a predefined schedule — for example, if you leave home every morning at 8 a.m., the appliances you don’t need while you’re away can be switched off automatically. You also have the option to control the plug manually using physical buttons on the device itself.
In short, this is about home automation, the smart home ecosystem, and the Internet of Things — simple but practical.
By the way, you’ll find two physical buttons on the device, each with its own LED indicator above it: one for power and one for connection. The LED brightness is fully adjustable via the app.
The plug is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, making voice control possible. It supports an output of up to 4000 watts at a maximum voltage of 250V. The internal components are built with flame-retardant materials, so you don’t have to worry about power surges or overloads damaging your connected devices. This voltage level is sufficient to handle virtually any household appliance.

Conclusion
A very compact device that allows you to control your appliance’s power status and monitor energy consumption remotely. It lets you switch connected devices on and off while also showing you which appliances are overloading the power source or consuming excessive energy.
Automation, smart home integration, the Internet of Things, enhanced comfort, and cost savings — these are the key concepts associated with the Ezviz Plug.
And in my view, there’s an additional advantage if you’re already using other Ezviz devices: it allows you to conveniently manage your appliances through a single app, keeping your entire ecosystem unified and easy to control.
