Internet Switch, good features, minor problems.
The Belkin Insight Switch is a very good example of its kind. It is a simple switch that is controlled via a tablet app connected to the internet. The switch itself is WiFi enabled, once setup the app on ones tablet is used to automate the simple switch on/off although the switch has a manual soft touch switch on the top if you wish to manually switch it. The app will suffice but its a shame there is not a PC version. Initial setup can be a little hit & miss, no feedback on what is going on, but once done there is a reasonable selection of controls such as timed on/off or on at dusk, off at dawn etc. You can connect anything you would normally connect to your wall socket, lamps, TV's even extension leads.
The unit is well made and comes only in white. Its a reasonable small size and does not impact on double gang plugs. All these type of things only work when connected to the internet, although there are third party apps that enable control via ones own network but you would need a server type device switched on all the time for them to work.
To surmise, well made, works well, would benefit from a PC software version and better setup process.
