Hi

I just bought the Homey and is quite happy with it.  
Now I looked for a smart plug

According to the forum a lot og people talks good about the Fibaro, but its pretty expensive if you want a lot 🙂

Then I found this one on ebay, will I be able to connect and yes this, with all of its functions?
