This two-pack connects to WiFi and works with Alexa and Google Assistant for voice commands.

Features and specifications in this description are as the brand describes them.
The Tapo P110 is a smart plug that sits between your wall socket and an appliance. It tracks energy consumption and real-time energy spend so you can monitor daily usage of individual devices. You control the plugs via the Tapo app to turn devices on and off, set schedules and timers, or use voice commands through Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant.
These plugs require a WiFi connection to function. The brand positions them as useful for keeping an eye on your energy spend across your home. Each pack contains two plugs, so you can monitor multiple appliances. Before buying, check that your WiFi network covers the areas where you plan to use them, and confirm that any appliances you want to control are compatible with smart plug operation.

Best for: Australian households wanting to track individual appliance energy consumption using Google Home, Alexa, or SmartThings.
The TP-Link Tapo P110 is an indoor smart plug that sits between a standard Australian wall socket and an appliance. According to TP-Link Australia, it provides real-time power tracking, historical usage graphs across daily, monthly, and yearly intervals, and an integrated electricity bill calculator within the free Tapo application. It also incorporates scheduling presets, an away mode, a countdown timer, and an automatic overload shut-off feature housed in UL94-V0 flame-retardant polycarbonate casing.
This unit suits homeowners and renters seeking to monitor energy usage on standard household items such as entertainment units, portable heaters, or office equipment. Because it requires no electrical installation, renters can deploy it without modifying fixtures. It integrates directly into setups using Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, or Samsung SmartThings over a local Wi-Fi connection without a paid subscription.
However, households invested in Apple Home or those requiring the Matter smart home standard should skip this model, as TP-Link reserves Matter support for the distinct P110M variant. It is also unsuitable for high-draw machinery or appliances requiring more than 10 A, and it should not be deployed outdoors or in damp areas due to a lack of weatherproofing.
According to TP-Link Australia, the Tapo P110 features an Australian 3-pin plug rated for 220–240 V at 50/60 Hz, supported by local SAA and Regulatory Compliance Mark (RCM) certifications. Its maximum operating capacity is rated at 10 A, 2300 W, or a 1/10 HP motor. Users connecting heating elements or workshop tools must ensure their device does not exceed this 10 A rating; always consult manufacturer specifications or check your state's electrical safety regulator regarding appliance load limits.
For connectivity, the socket functions strictly on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks (IEEE 802.11b/g/n) and does not support 5 GHz bands or captive portals. Official local retail packages sold through Australian retailers such as JB Hi-Fi, Bunnings Warehouse, and Officeworks are backed by TP-Link Australia's two-year limited warranty for smart power devices.
