Onvis has launched an outdoor smart plug featuring Matter over Thread, real-time energy monitoring, and IP65 weather resistance. Designed for Apple Home users, it eliminates the need for a separate hub and works with Alexa, Google Home, and SmartThings. Unlike Wi-Fi plugs, Thread’s mesh network ensures reliable outdoor coverage, even in brick-walled homes.
The plug supports up to 1800 watts, ideal for landscape lighting, holiday decorations, or pool pumps. Energy data appears directly in Apple Home’s energy view, with no extra app required. Schedules and automations are native to Apple Home, allowing sunset-triggered lighting.
Onvis continues its reputation as a trusted Apple Home vendor. The Onvis Outdoor Smart Plug is available now on Amazon.
