KMC Smart Plug Mini
Score: 74/100Rankings
The Tapo P105 is an ultra-compact indoor smart plug that handles up to 1800 W and integrates with Alexa, Google Assistant and the Kasa app. It lacks energy monitoring and is limited to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, with no outdoor rating. Ideal for users needing a tiny high-power plug for indoor use.
The KMC Smart Plug Mini delivers a reliable, hub-free smart-plug experience with a lifetime warranty and robust safety certifications, supporting up to 1875 W of load. Its main compromises are a bulky design that blocks neighboring sockets and the absence of energy-monitoring features. It is best suited for beginners and families who value a simple, long-lasting solution over ultra-compact size.

The Tapo P105 is a ultra-compact mini smart Wi-Fi plug from TP-Link's Tapo line, supporting up to 15 A/1800 W loads and controllable via the Tapo app, voice assistants and Bluetooth-only setup.
Customers generally express satisfaction with the plug's reliability, straightforward setup, and compactness, but many wish it included energy monitoring and broader Wi-Fi compatibility.
“"Simple 1-2 minute app setup by scanning a QR code and connecting to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network."”
“"Bulkier than true "mini" plugs, making it less suitable for tight outlet spaces."”
Professional reviewers view the KMC Smart Plug Mini as a solid entry-level device with a very easy app-based setup, reliable Alexa/Google voice control, and strong safety certifications. They commend the lifetime warranty and no-hub design, but consistently point out the plug's bulk and its tendency to block an adjacent outlet, making it less suitable for dense outlet arrangements.
Everyday users love how quickly the plug can be added to the KMC app and how it lets them control lights and appliances from anywhere, including via voice assistants. Common praise centers on remote access, family sharing, and the ability to create schedules. Recurring complaints focus on Wi-Fi pairing quirks, confusing LED indicators, and the physical size that blocks neighboring sockets.
