You must also remember that when the hub restarts (which is once a week on a Sunday) or there is a power cut, then the smart plug defaults to the off state, so be careful not to plug anything into it which needs to be can use the plug 'manually' by switching the plug on or off by pressing the button on the front of it. The colour of the button will be red if the plug is on, and clear if it is off.
