What do smart light switches do?
Also, smart bulbs and switches work in a similar way.
Smart bulbs are not compatible with smart plugs. They must be connected to light fixtures at all times. You can't access a smart bulb if someone flips the switch.
Are smart switches also able to use electricity even when they are off? Smart plugs are responsible for their own energy consumption. Smart plugs do draw a small current in standby mode but that's only about 1 wattawhich means that the overall effect on energy consumption is negligible.
