Review: Nyrius Smart Outlet<img src="
" />
Following on the heels of its Smart LED Bulb, Nyrius has now released its second iOS compatible Bluetooth Smart device in the form of its Smart Outlet ($35), a Bluetooth wall plug. Smart Outlet — which is not HomeKit-compatible — allows you to control lamps and other plug-in devices from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using the company's free companion Nyrius Outlet app, which also provides the ability to do proximity activation and set on/off timers. The Smart Outlet itself is a wall plug module similar to many others we've seen, although for whatever reason Nyrius has chosen to place the plug socket on the bottom of Smart Outlet, rather than the sides or front. This will allow for placement in tighter spaces in some cases. Smart Outlet is relatively unadorned, save for a white LED on the front of the module that indicates Bluetooth connectivity status.{/exp:char_limit}
