Takeaway: Easy to set up but I used a different app for timers/schedules, works with Alexa/Smart Life.

The smart outlet comes with an instruction manual, although the unit is basically plug-and-play. The manual does recommend an app, though based on the feedback from others here, and the fact that all my other smart home devices are connected to Alexa via the Smart Life app, I skipped trying the recommended app altogether and simply set up the plug with Smart Life which works fine. The WiFi outlet is made of a durable ABS plastic, and it measures 3.75" x 2.25" x 1.75". On the back is a single 3-prong plug and the stated voltage ratings is for 100-240 VAC with 10A current and 2000W max load. It's designed for indoor use only and is not waterproof. On the front is a single socket and power button with LED light.

Setting it up on my network with Smart Life took less than a minute and afterward the unit functioned fine for the schedule, timer, and on/off functions. I was also able to use Alexa to control it with voice commands using my Echo Dot and Alexa app on my phone. The socket is simple and straightforward to setup and leaves enough space underneath in a dual outlet configuration for most 2-prong plugs (some 3-prong and large adapters might not have enough space though). Not sure why the unit has to be so big since it doesn't do electrical consumption monitoring. I have other units which are smaller that have the same exact functionality, but overall this unit unit performs as expected do far.

Vava Egg Shaped Kids Baby Night Light Review Buy it at Amazon: Vava Egg Shaped Kids Baby Night Light [Affiliate Link] Takeaway: Cute nightlight, several modes, good range of brightness level/color temps, long run-time. You'll receive the light, a microUSB charging cable, a small metal carabiner, and an instruction manual. This light is cutely egg-shaped and is made of plastic with a solid white base and a translucent white top. On the front you have the Vava logo and a small indicator LED and on the back you have the charging port hidden behind a rubber door. The unit takes about 5 hours to fully charge and the LED blinks blue quickly while charging. Once fully charged can last for up to 80 hours or about 10 consecutive nights at 8 hours each. What's nice about this night light is that once it is charged, it is portable and can be placed in different rooms and doesn't need to be near an outlet. It's also IP65 water resistant rated and is able to get wet. On the bottom

Silkworld Ice Silk Briefs Review

Silkworld Ice Silk Briefs Review Buy it at Amazon: Silkworld Ice Silk Briefs [Affiliate Link] Takeaway: Sheer, revealing, soft and comfortable, very low profile and lightweight with enhancement bands in front. You'll receive 8 pairs of underwear in different colors: blue, orange, yellow, red, hot pink, black, white and cyan. The underwear is made from a sheer nylon spandex blend with a mesh weave. The front pouch is framed by elastic bands and stretches to accommodate larger endowments, but does require some adjustments and manual finagling; it could use some more room in general. However, the bands lift and accentuate your package for a fuller look. While there's a seam down the middle of the pouch, it's smooth and you can barely feel it. The waist band is 1" wide and stretches quite a bit. Note that the more the material stretches, the more transparent it becomes. In back, you'll get full coverage for your backside, and it will stretch to accommodate your curve
