Newbie here 

 

I have several of these plugs which are great and have been updated but having an issue with this :

Christmas Low Voltage Animated Red Lantern from Kmart

 

Succesfully added the device to my account

 

Using either google or Alexa turning off the lantern once running and scheduling off the lantern is no problem

 

Turning on however hear the switch go on but it is not activating the lantern itself to start

 

Wondering why this is ?

 

The lantern has three settings Off On with sound and animation and On with animation 

 

Thanks for any help

@Ampgc 

 

The switch works by either cutting power or giving power so if you were to physically unplug the lantern, and plug it back in, that is how the smart plugs works.

 

If the device connected to the plug has an additional switch or on button that still needs to be pressed, the smart plug does not control that. Similar to a television, if you plug it in, it is still "off", and you need to press the power button to turn it on.
