I renamed them to to Left Valve and Right Valve in SmartLife.Using the SmartLife skill, the onboard smart plug on the Hub wouldn't show as an Alexa Device? You can set it up and control it in SmartLife, but I can't find a way to add it as an Alexa voice controlled device?It was what I needed to control watering two zones that I recently seeded for with grass seeds to cover some bare spots. The areas were separate, and I connected two lawn sprinklers to independently water the 2 areas 3 times a day as recommended. Also helpful is to see the number of gallons of water applied each cycle. I adjusted the times to ensure it delivered 1/8 inch of water to each zone area each time. The device is simple to set up and use. I like that the two outlets can be turned on manually individually at the device when needed. It's like having two faucets instead of one where I can attach two hoses if needed and control them individually. Another feature I like is the Wi-Fi repeater has a programable Wi-Fi socket that duplicates the outlet socket it occupies. After using it for several weeks, I bought a second unit for my garden. Great product!"The timer I purchased worked at first but then started acting funny. I would use manual mode to set it to go on for, say, an hour. Sometimes it would complete, but more frequently it would just shut itself off early.I contacted Rainpoint customer service and it was as if they could not wait to help me. About 1.25 hours after I sent in my initial email they responded. We exchanged some information, me providing information about the purchase and issue, they providing a few tips for me to try, but ultimate they determined that the timer unit was defective and offered to send out a replacement.I received the replacement about 2 days later and it included a return shipping label for me to send back the defective unit.I have not yet had a chance to try out the new unit (summer is ending & don't need to waste the water) but I have high confidence that it'll work fine, or that their customer service will resolve any issue quickly.Shout out to Kristy from Rainpoint customer service for taking care of me.It took a while to setup but after the setup I haven't had any problems. It works perfectly and it doesn't leak. The pressure I am using for my irrigation system is low. I love the extra feature so you can turn on/off an outlet. The app is good. You can turn on/off your system either manually or using the app. You can setup schedules and different timmers. Really love the product.Once I got everything set up and connected, it is wonderful. I had to contact my internet provider to be able to see the 2.4 mghz WiFi. After that was done, the directions for set up was very easy. Unfortunately, there was a leak in the timer. I contacted Rain Point and they sent me a new timer that works great. Great customer service no questions asked and no hassle of returning the faulty one.Ordered one of these timers in late July, received it promptly and worked thru the instructions, not real easy. Then I watched a Youtube video and that made it real easy. Loved this time, for the 2 weeks it worked. Then the hub would not light up. Tried everything, but no blue ring. I followed directions to return it and I marked that I wanted another one. I really like the timer and hope this is just a fluke. I returned thru my local UPS source on Monday and on Tuesday afternoon I had my new timer. I just installed this new one and I really hope that it will continue to run. I will return and update my review in a while. I really hope I can change this to 5 stars because it is an amazing concept and very easy to run.Es muy práctico y facil de configurar
