Thanks - that worked for my lamp. From this video I determined TWO routines are needed to turn on - and then off - a lamp.After the "on" time was done, I went to the Smart Plug (under Plugs) and I saw that it was switched "on". Since I'm 700 miles from my house, I'm going to assume for another few days that it is, indeed, going on and off.

thank YOU! That it very obtuse to have to set up two routines...no one mentioned that... My other smart plugs are a bit smarter it seems.

Smart plug, you have to create two routines!!! One it's a monomer for the plug! How about writing a program that has a start/stop time, it's not that ******hard!!!!

No kidding!! The instruction booklet reads: "before plugging equipment into smart plug, make sure the equipment is turned off" Common sense tells most people to keep it in on position. But with todays tech, common sense doesnt always apply. What the literal fxck?!

Thank you for the straight forward information. I had an Eco dot and 2 smart plugs that worked great then I got the bigger Eco 2nd generation and now my plugs are useless. I don't have the box they came in so no barcode and when I press the button on the plug until it flashes and scan on the alexa app it just keeps saying "No devices found" I've been trying to connect these for about 6 hours on and off to no avail I'm not that good with technology as I'm in my late 50s so I've only been embracing tech for a couple of years but I'm disabled and these plugs are such a help to me as I live alone. I would be very grateful if you could recommend something I can try? Thank you Dave

The device is basic, you can not set on the plug for specific timing. For example, I have a routine that turns on the iBlockCube Plug for 5 minutes when the sensor is triggered. in this Amazon Plug you can not do that using plug timing. I hope I am wrong :)

Good video. But the problem I have is my plug when I was setting it up I mistakenly set it to turn off after sunrise instead of sunset and I’ve tried everything to edit it and nothing works. I can edit the name of the plug but no edit option to change from sunrise to sunset. It’s so annoying.
