TP-Link's deep smart plug discount is a deal you definitely don't want to miss. But there's one common scenario that these smart plugs actually aren't that great for. What happens if you want to control two or three different devices that are all in the same area of a room? That's where something like the TP-Link Kasa KP303 Smart Plug Power Strip comes in, and it's just under $30 right now thanks to a new lower retail price at Amazon.
This Kasa surge protector has not one, not two, but three different smart outlets that are all built into one sleek and compact power strip. Control each outlet independently with the free Kasa smartphone app on your iPhone or Android. This power strip also supports voice commands with either Alexa or Google Assistant. The setup is quick and easy, and everyone knows TP-Link makes high-quality products. That's why more than 3,400 Amazon shoppers have already given this awesome surge protector a 5-star rating.
There's another great feature on this model as well, and it's the fact that the Kasa KP303 has two USB power ports in addition to the four standard AC electrical outlets. That means you can charge another two smartphones, tablets, eBook readers, and plenty more without having to unplug anything. You cannot control the USB power ports with a smartphone or your voice like the regular power outlets. But there isn't much use for smart USB power ports anyway. Why would you want to stop charging your cell phone with a voice command?
