Yunhe is one of the few companies that has launched a complete set of smart home equipment solutions. Its products include many products, from smart cameras, smart sockets, to infrared body sensors/door and window magnetic sensors/curtain controllers. Its new WiFi smart socket will start at 10:00 on November 6 , and we also got this smart socket product, which is easy to use and safe. Now let's see its performance.
Appearance and packaging
The machine is packed in a blue and white paper box, with a transparent window on the front to display the product, and detailed product information on the back.
It includes the socket body and the manual warranty.
The socket is made of frosted material, fingerprint proof and dirt resistant. The upper left corner of the socket is inclined, and the switch with work indicator light is on it. It adopts the new national standard five hole socket, and has a child protection door, which can prevent children from reaching into the socket by mistake.
The back is the triangle socket, as well as the product nameplate and QR code for APP download.
The socket is light and doesn't take up too much space.
Safety is the first prerequisite
As an electrical appliance, safety always comes first. In addition to adding a jack safety door to prevent children from accidentally touching, the machine also uses anti flame retardant materials that can support up to 750 degrees. The official propaganda circuit realizes overload protection, lightning protection and surge discharge functions. The real-time power detection of the intelligent part can give a safety flashing warning when the power is high and automatically cut off the power when the power is high, which can eliminate a considerable number of safety hazards.
Remote, timing and linkage control
Yunhe has its own set of smart home equipment, and Yunhe WiFi smart socket is also one of them. Scan the QR code on the back of the socket to download its mobile APP directly.
List of cloud web sites and connected devices
After the socket is powered on, you need to switch it to the network access status by long pressing. This status officially mentioned that the indicator light is blue flashing (network access status - extreme speed mode). Just select the device type in the mobile phone client, enter the WiFi password, and then the connection can be completed automatically. In the list of devices added, we can see that Yunhe officially provides 10 kinds of smart home devices ranging from curtain controller to smoke sensor.
Home page and socket management page
On the home page of the mobile phone application, there will be a socket card, which simply displays the current status information of the socket and the common function operations. Even if you do not enter the next interface, you can perform the corresponding switch and charge protection control on the smart socket. If you forget to turn off the lights and turn off the computer when you go out, you can turn off the APP remotely, or even turn on the air conditioner remotely before you go home, so you don't have to wait for the room to cool down when you go home.
The timing function can set the opening and closing time for the socket, and supports the repeat and comment functions by the number of weeks. In this way, the machine allows the air conditioner, water heater and other appliances with their own working hours to be turned on or off regularly every day.
The device list in the left column can group multiple devices according to user needs. For example, different location groups can be preset for multiple devices at home and office to facilitate the management of multiple devices.
The scenario management in the right column can complete customized procedural actions after adding trigger conditions and actions. For example, it can be set that after opening the socket at home, the water heater and air conditioner will be triggered to start working, so that the equipment room can work together intelligently.
Power synchronous feedback display
The left is the real-time power display of the client, and the right is the corresponding indicator color
The hidden status indicator of the socket adds colorful support. The color of the indicator and the interface of the mobile phone will display different colors according to the current power of the appliance. The darker the power, the redder the color. Even if you don't know the exact power, you can estimate the power range of the appliance through the color of the indicator light, so that users can know the power of the appliance well. This is equivalent to adding the inductive power indication function to the socket in a disguised way. In daily use, you can even judge whether the water heater and other equipment have been working normally according to its color, which is much more functional and practical than similar products.
Electricity statistics
The left is the electricity statistics page, and the right is the subtotal page
In the socket detail page, the power is marked in the form of a code meter, and the maximum power supported by the socket is 2400W, which is even enough to support ordinary wall mounted air conditioners. The socket also provides charging protection, electricity statistics, stage records and other features to help users count electricity and save money.
As the name implies, electricity statistics means that the machine will record the readings of electricity consumption every hour, and the page can select to display and count by month, month and Sunday.
The "subtotal" function is rare. In fact, it is an enhanced version of electricity statistics. Click the statistics start button, and the APP will record the ultra accurate power according to the accuracy of seconds, which has been displayed in the form of curves, which is very suitable for recording and viewing the changes in power consumption of electrical appliances. No matter how much power the machine uses, when it consumes more power, or how its power consumption mode is, you can use this function to find the answer. Geeks and curious users may like this function very much.
Ordinary users can also change their electricity consumption habits based on these data, especially for high-power appliances such as air conditioners, induction cookers, water heaters, etc. Simple habit changes may save users a lot of electricity bills.
Self learning function
The APP has built-in algorithm learning function, which can judge the type of electrical appliances according to the power consumption of electrical appliances and the power consumption curve. The purpose of this function is to provide more intelligent charging protection function for devices with built-in batteries such as mobile phones, tablets and computers. After the mobile phone and other devices are fully charged, they will automatically power off to protect the battery of the charging device and save the power that is wasted at ordinary times.
Rare new play
A new function called [I guess] is built into the APP, which is supposed to echo the slogan of "ideological socket". When different appliances are plugged into the socket for use, the interface will give a guess result. Every user has the right to speak about the result after big data analysis, and can like, step on or ignore it.
What is the purpose of such [I guess] careful thinking? Officially, the result of this conjecture will be of great use in the near future, such as enabling charging protection for charging devices that are correctly guessed in the future, and intelligent power-off of appliances in standby mode. So this little thing is in the process of rapid growth and learning.
Another creative feature is the experience function of intelligent products. The page displays the virtual control pages of microwave ovens, air conditioners, refrigerators, ovens and other products. You can experience the convenience (bi) and benefit (ge) of intelligent life before purchasing equipment.
summary
Although the appearance of Yunhe WiFi smart socket is very low-key, its product maturity and availability are very high, and its application is also very high among similar products. In addition to the simplicity and ease of use of the product itself, its biggest advantage is the complete set of smart home solutions provided by Yunhe, which is an advantage that other independent smart device manufacturers cannot match. If the price is appropriate, it should be the first smart product suitable for many users to buy.
