British General Smart Home 13A Smart Socket White (124GV)

Hi Nicktherunner, Yes, there is the option to set timer events through the BG Home app to cause the adaptor to switch on or off at whatever time you require, and as many times as you need to.

Hi Ash230, There is no reason to expect any issued from plugging this smart adaptor into an extension rather than a wall socket, in fact we have been long-term testing several adaptors in extensions and so far they have behaved no differently to the ones in wall sockets.

Hi Rcstewart, The sockets are capable of switching 13A loads and a little more besides, so as long as you're not overloading the extension there shouldn't be any problem from the socket side.

Hi Augustine1, It may be that you need to temporarily disable toe 5GHz portion of the signal, or split the two bands into separate signals with different names, within the router interface - then you can be certain that it is the 2.4GHz signal you are using. Alternatively as you move further away from the router the 5GHz signal will have a lower overall range than the 2.4GHz so you may be able to find a socket location where only the 2.4GHz signal is strong enough to be used (you can return the socket to a closer position once it is in the app).

Hi Dermie, No, the sockets are designed for smart control only so have no power monitoring capacity.
