Features

• The LG Smart Power Plug MTTL-W01 (called Multitap) is 3.5KW power plug made by LG/TCL.

• It houses a lot of  nice features such as Overload power cut, Standby power cut, remote controlled via mobile application over WiFi, USB ports for charging phones and many more. It is also made from high quality materials.

• The device supports Access Point or Station modes which can be configured from the "U+Smart Home App".
• According to LG website (in Korean), you can set schedules and monitor your power consumption and even have some statistics.

Down side

• My only problem with this device is the mobile application which is in Korean only, and requires a Korean phone number and annual subscription in order to use it with the device.
• There are other applications that claim compatibility with plug but none of them worked with me.

So, I decided to take the matters in my own hands.

Goal

• My goal is to control the plug using my phone via a simple mobile application or a web server.
