Small, plug and play, not cheap
These worked great straight out of the box with Home Assistant ZHA and I would imagine with other Zigbee hubs or controllers too.They are quite a bit more compact than other smart plugs that I own (see first attached pic with side by side comparison with a SmartThings plug) which means you can fit more than one next to each other in an extension lead.The position of the button can be challenging in such a setup but personally I never use it anyway. Placing the button on top would make most sense but the manufacturer was probably constrained by the small size of the case.The led light on the button seems unnecessarily bright (see attached picture taken in low light) but you can put a small sticker over it if it really bothers you. Where I have these installed I can't even see the light, but it might be annoying if they are right next to your bed for example.My only major complaint would be the price β even at a 30% discount these are still more than double the price of similar Zigbee smart plugs, but for that you get energy monitoring and a very compact size. Is that worth it? It's up to you...

Power measuring
They measure power, checked with a power meter and the readings are accurate. Work out the box with homeassistant as they follow the Zigbee spec. Not like some tuya "zigbee" plugs.

Compact Zigbee Smart Plug
Zigbee Smart Plug, compact but not cheap. One of the smallest I have come across. You can get two side by side in a power extension block.Rated at 10A rather than 13A.Quite a loud click when it switches on or offWorks very well with my 3rd party hub and provides power usage information.

Good and easy to integrate
Added to Home Assistant ZHA setup with no problems.1* off because it's double the price of other Zigbee plugs (e.g. INNR) which don't have energy monitoring.I can't see why it's an additional 100% just for that feature.
