Model: KP405  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

A drill was plugged into the KP405 outdoor smart plug and now it won't work at all. I've tried to power cycle by holding down the button for up to 30 seconds and still nothing. Is this thing recoverable?

Likely no.  The KP405 is designed to only be used with exclusivily with dimming outdoor lights.  In fact unlike the KP400 or EP40 with a 15 amp maximum output the KP405 only has a 4 amp max.  If your drill out put is more than this you likely blew the smart plug.
