Physical Installation & Safety
01
Step 1: Choose the Right Location
Mount on a GFCI-protected outdoor outlet under an eave, 2 ft above grade and away from sprinkler spray.
02
Step 2: Mount the Plug
Hook the keyhole slot over the supplied screw and anchor so the plug never sits face up.
03
Step 3: Connect the Load
Plug the dimmable fixture into the plug's own outlet and cap the unused socket.
04
Step 4: Verify Dimming
Sweep to the lowest level and lock the minimum brightness in the app before the fixture starts to flicker.

Troubleshooting FAQs
Direct solutions to common network, protocol, and pairing questions.
Q: Does it need a hub or a dimmable wall switch?
A: Neither. It is a Wi-Fi plug with its own dimmer, controlled through the app, Alexa or Google. The wall switch stays on and the plug does the dimming.
Q: The lights flicker at low brightness.
A: Set the minimum brightness lock. Outdoor LED fixtures and transformers have a floor below which they cannot regulate. If the fixture is not marked dimmable, no setting will help.
Q: How far can it be from the router?
A: About 300 ft in open air, but the practical limit is the 2.4 GHz signal at the outlet. Landscape runs behind brick or metal fixtures often need a mesh node closer.
