JB-Hifi have a coupon for these for $29 down from $49. They are unique coupon codes, I got mine via their normal newsletter, but according to the website you can sign up to their "Instant Deals" mailing list and get a code sent to you.

Has anyone had any luck with this? I've tried signing up to instant deals with a range of email addresses, and nothing arrives, nothing in spam. Have been meaning to get one of these plugs.

I understand they are 'unique' codes, but I'm not sure if this means the purchase has to be made by the person whose email address the offer was sent to. If they can be used by another person, I'm happy to forward you my email.

I bought one this afternoon. Email never arrived for my personal account but took a couple of hours using my work address. Code was not tied to the email address so was able to use it with my existing account and personal address.

Wanted to order three units but voucher only discounted one item.

These don't have power metering do they? Doesn't seem to mention it anywhere.

 

I'm after one that I can use to measure power usage of devices and use as a smart switch. Was leaning toward the Aeotec zwave one, but a bit pricey. WIFI ones seem a fair bit cheaper. Would also want Home Assistant integration.

No power metering unfortunately. Model is the HS100. Tp-link offer the HS110 with power metering.
