Technical documentation for the Ghome Smart Power Strip identifies a Tuya-ecosystem implementation utilizing an integrated Wi-Fi microcontroller mounted on a vertical daughterboard for electrical isolation. The internal bus bars are constructed from stamped brass, which is rated for a 10A aggregate load. The communication hardware is restricted to the 2.4GHz spectrum; modern Wi-Fi 6 or 7 mesh systems may require a temporary 5GHz disablement to facilitate the initial pairing handshake.
Performance metrics indicate that the three AC outlets are independently addressable via the GHome, Tuya, or Smart Life applications, whereas the USB block is treated as a single controllable zone. The USB module provides a shared 5V/3.1A output without Power Delivery (PD) support. The unit lacks a significant Joule rating for surge protection, making it unsuitable for high-value AV or computational equipment. Operation is cloud-dependent, relying on remote polling for automation logic.
- Modes of operation: Independent AC Toggling, Grouped USB Switching, Voice Assistant Integration.
- Hardware specifications: 10A aggregate load, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Stamped Brass internal bars.
Summary: A compact 3-outlet smart distributor for the Tuya ecosystem, suitable for nightstand or desk-side use but limited by cloud dependency and lack of surge protection.
For users requiring robust surge protection for high-value electronics, the Kasa Smart Plug Power Strip with USB and Surge Protection offers a professional 1710 Joule rating. Kasa Smart Plug Power Strip with USB and Surge Protection
