Model: Tapo P115  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

I'm probably misunderstanding things, but after buying a Tapo P115 smart plug (V1.20), I noticed the small booklet-thing that comes with it mentioning possible damage when using charders under 75W, in particular:
"1. *Power Adapters/USB Chargers rated under 75W do not support PFC (Power Factor Correction). PFC can reduce the inrush current generated when the relay is turned on. Therefore, using a 60-75W Power Adapter/USB Charger may damage the device due to inrush currents."

 

My main usecase for this plug is actually a Tapo C230 camera and was considering getting a few extra for phone, laptop and portable console chargers (ranging 25W/50W/65W/100W), are those not supposed to be used with this type of plugs? Or is there anything in particular I would know about using these plugs?

If your power adapter or USB charger is rated between 60‑75W, we do not recommend connecting it to a Tapo smart plug.
