Gone are the days wherein your extension chord is just an ordinary extension chord, serving the simple yet useful function of letting you plug more devices into it, and thats it. No more, no less function of an ordinary extension chord of your grandpa.
Now, its time to finally revolutionize that concept and empower your extension chord, what can you say about it? Sounds good right?
How about putting wifi functions into it? So you can control it away from home.
How about placing USB into it, so you can easily charge your devices without whipping out your USB adapter.
How about placing timer into it, so you can define when it will turn on and when it will turn off.
How about placing the function of a power meter into it, so you can check how many KW and how much you are paying monthly for it.
All of these you can achieve using the Mijia Qingmi Wifi Powerstrip from the future! This handy powerstrip is the same as the Mijia Powerstrip, but it has added more function into it. Same as the ones I just mentioned above. Really, I am pretty impressed with the functions that my extension chrod can do as opposed to my grandpa's old handy extension chord (sorry bout that grandpa).
Hands On Photo:
Everything looks the same from the Mijia Powerstrip, except the round socket on this one and the power switch.
Mijia Home App Integration:
Connecting to Mijia Home App is as easy as 1-2-3, just turn on your bluetooth and wifi and connect it to your home router, make sure you are near the router with the powerstrip for fast connection. Just let it search, or you can manually add it as well, then it will connect for around 1-2 minutes, as soon as you access it, there is normally a firmware update for it, just update it. Then there you go, you can freely set those settings based on your requirements.
You can now grab yours for 99 RMB from Xiaomi Webstore in China.
