Tapo P110M Smart Plug is a smart plug for home automation, bringing energy monitoring and Matter compatibility to mains sockets. Track consumption and control appliances from anywhere to reduce waste and simplify routines. Is it the sensible upgrade for households that want precise energy insight and broad smart-home support?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Energy Monitoring: Built-in energy monitoring records real-time and historical power use with rate-based bill estimates
  • Best for: Households and hobbyists wanting clear, appliance-level electricity insight
  • Not ideal for: High-current devices such as EV chargers or motors/compressors above 1/6HP

Matter 1.3 compatibility enables integration with supported hubs. Rated at 13A (2990W) and made from flame-retardant PC for everyday indoor use.


Lower energy bills - with Energy Monitoring

Energy monitoring records real-time consumption and logs historical data, while allowing a user-set electricity rate to estimate costs. The app displays intuitive visualisations so patterns and high-usage appliances become clear.

Identify the appliances that consume most power and adjust usage to reduce bills. Rate-based estimates help plan changes that have a measurable effect on household spending.

Remote control and automation - with App remote control and voice assistants

Remote on/off control and scheduling works through the Tapo app without a hub, while Matter support enables integration with SmartThings and Home Assistant when firmware and a Matter hub are updated. Voice commands work via Amazon Alexa, Google Home and Apple HomeKit where supported.

Switch and schedule appliances from anywhere and use voice commands for hands-free operation. Automation and away modes help keep routines consistent without manual effort.

Safer everyday use - with flame-retardant materials and clear power limits

Construction uses PC flame-retardant materials and an electrical rating of 13A, 2990W. Usage guidance warns against connecting motors or compressors above 1/6HP and explicitly states EV charging is not supported.

Suitable for lamps, kettles and most household devices within the rating, giving reassurance around durability and fire risk. Avoid heavy compressors and EV chargers to stay within safe operating limits.
