• Overhead Protection" :))))

This 9-in-1 Outlet Extender seems like a versatile and convenient solution, especially for those dealing with limited outlets in tight spaces. I like how the non-blocking design ensures you can fully utilize all the outlets without worrying about overcrowding. The mix of smart and always-on outlets offers flexibility, and the inclusion of USB ports, including a Type-C, is a nice touch for fast charging.

The multiple safety features, like overheat protection and surge protection, definitely give peace of mind, especially when using multiple devices at once. The smart night light is another thoughtful addition, making it easy to find the outlet in low-light situations.

The phone holder design is a neat bonus—no more awkwardly placing your phone on the floor while charging! Plus, the dual-antenna design for stable connectivity and WPA3 encryption shows that security was clearly prioritized.

Overall, with features like remote control, voice control compatibility, and automation through the Tapo or Apple Home app, this extender feels like a solid upgrade for any smart home setup. Definitely a product to consider if you’re looking to make your home smarter and safer.

When do we get the cool stuff in EU?

I really want that "Tapo P360" and this looks even better

I have two of these extenders and they are great.  Only one flaw:  No overall "reset" or "connect" button when one needs to reconnect after the extender loses connectivity with one's 2.4ghz network.   I had an incident recently where the access point to which the extenders were connected went down, and when I restarted the AP, the only way to reconnect was to physically unplug the extender and then plug it back in again.  This is not ideal because in order to unplug the extender from the wall, one needs to unscrew the center mount screw first, unplug the extender, plug it back in again, and then re-tighten the center screw that affixes the extender to the outlet.   It would have been so much more convenient if, like a smart plug, at least one of the three smart outlet switches also served as an overall device reset switch (e.g., if pressed longer than just turning off or on the smart outlet, in the same way that TP Link's smart plugs side-button works).     Just a suggestion for a future release.   Fortunately, losing connectivity is pretty rare, but still, when it does occur and the device needs to be reconnected, a "reset" button would be a nice feature to add.

As the device is presently configured, I really do think it's among the more useful smart devices I own.  And I love the smart night light.  Really a nice touch.

EDIT UPDATE:   

After posting the above, I re-read the online User Manual for the TP-306, and saw immediately that if the device loses wifi, you can depress and hold any one of the three smart outlet off/on buttons for 5 seconds and the TP306 will reset the wifi, and similarly, if you press and hold any one of the three buttons for 10 seconds, the TP306 will reset to factory default settings.  

DOH!!!. 

Well, at least now I know that I don't need to unplug the entire extender and can leave it affixed to the outlet.   So the device is PERFECT!!!
