I wish the ikea plug would also measure power consumption. Would replace my aqara ones in a heartbeat. All in all I think ikea makes some of the best zigbee devices. The price value is great and I have the least problems with them.

In October, IKEA will expand its smart home energy offerings by introducing INSPELNING, a new smart plug that measures energy consumption!

Bro, you wouldn't believe how grateful I was to my daughter for making meatballs yesterday and having leftovers in the fridge. The Pavlovian reflex is cruel 😋I agree that even though I’m also missing power monitoring price/value ratio is great. Especially if it’s discounted. I use old Ikea plug for charging managment (20-80%) of my dashboard and it’s totally fine. It doesn’t even have button so I cannot manually turn it on/off. Good excuse for upgrade 😎

It is better to buy TRETAKT with RODRET remote in the set, in DE set costs 10 EUR, and only Tretakt 8 EUR. Rodret can be used then with other devices (I am using it for controlling my LED controller :-)) BADRING - I dipped one in the water, and water was everywhere inside, and learned the hard way that is not to be submerged, but only bottom should be in water. It is very nice and practical with one AAA, but as I also have Aquara like you showed, I find Aquara far more usefull because one can screw wires to Aquara poles, and keep Aquara away from water or closer to the Zigbee hub. Another issue is that alarm can not be turned off - it sounds always and sounds like fire sensor as well. And greetings for the ancestor of najveceg sina nasih naroda i narodnosti 🙂!

Yes, combo is really good deal. I decided to not buy it as I have a lot of older switches and I don't like the size of new ones. Sorry to hear about it - yeah, it can not be fully submerged. Aqara one is still working good but hating that "hidden" button thing. It's good that I don't need to squeeze very often to get it in pairing state. I hvala puno ;)

Actually IKEA has an even better device for some places. It is called IKEA KNYCKLAN it is a water leak detector with a valve to turn of the water. So if there is a leak it will not only alarm, but also turn of the water. It also has a remote so you can manually turn of the water.

If you want to use lugs with IKEA App, they require IKEA Hub. As these are not WiFi devices but Zigbee, they will always require a hub or coordinator to get them working.

Not as easy and efficient as disabling the beeper in software but you could try sticking some thick tape or glue on those perforations in the case. Or, you know, open the case and cut one of the wires/traces going to the beeper.
