The LifeSmart Outlet is an upgrade to the traditional power outlet by adding intelligent two-way communication via the LifeSmart APP and the Smart Station. Any item that is plugged in to the outlet now has smart capabilities. Want to turn on the coffee maker at 6am? No problem. You can set timers, environmental controls, or just have access at any time. Pair the outlet with other smart devices and trigger events based on your personal needs. This highly versatile device has infinite implications.
