Smart plugs are so awesome, especially now that winter weather has arrived in full force. You can slap a Wi-Fi enabled smart plug on any space heaters you might be using around your house, and a simple tap of a virtual button or a voice command with your favorite voice assistant will make sure your heater is turned off. Before you spend $25 or $30 on a single smart plug though, definitely check out the Conico 1SK33W Wi-Fi Smart Power Strip. It has all the same features at the same price, but there are 4 individually controllable power outlets instead of just one!
