I had a P110 fail recently... I hope the others I own don't fail as well. It's rather important that a plug is safe and reliable. A P110 fail could lead to losing a fridge load of food (due to power off) or a fire or (due to non stop clicking/ switching) cause a TV to fuse.

  @DeltaCharlie Same issue on 2 of my p110. Are there any official announcements about it? Having an unreliable plug is not ok. Will have to look for differnet vendors.

  @DeltaCharlie 

I have four P110, 2 has failed after using it for a few months, will not turn off no matter how I reset it.

Took the last NEW plug out, installed it, works perfectly without issue. I will count how long it last. I bought a new double pack in August 2023, and one has failed. I only use it to control a small audio interface that doesn't draw much power, but I do turn it on/off regularly - so it seems the on/off mechanism is not durable (using it regularly will only last 4-5 months)

The other one that last the longest - I do not use the on/off function that often.

This has quality issue, I will not buy this anymore, I am trying other brand.

  @DeltaCharlie After some looking around on reddit I found out that if you give some taps to the plug where the on/off switch is, it starts working again.

Hi,

I have the same problem, How long does it stay unplugged to be resetted ? for me one day is not enough...

  @SCN1 I don't remember how long I waited, possibly around a week as I was all set to send it back, but thought I would give it a last try, which is when it started working again.

  @nikospamp thanks this worked, I tapped on the plug repeatedly whilst turning the device on and off via the app. You can tell when it's fixed because the click is louder.

Hi all. 
 

I had this issue today and customer services said shake the plug and give it, basically, a good slap. 
 

I slapped it on each side quite hard and on one slap I heard an audible click / ping. Have plugged it back in and it's working again. Must be a moving part which gets stuck and the force or a strike sorts it out. 
 

Hope this helps

Same here. After 6 months of usage... Same problem.

@DeltaCharlie I was all set to return one of my failed plugs to tp-link and it had been sitting on my desk, unused, but more importantly, not plugged in.  I thought I would give it one last try and to my surprise it worked.  This is despite trying everything to get it to work a few days earlier and being unsuccesful.

 

All I can think is that being unplugged for a few days caused it to "reset".  It has actually worked okay since!

6 months on and the same smart plug has failed again.  Usual symptoms - switches on and off but doesn't turn the power on or off, power is constantly on.  Tried leaving it for a week, but still not working so its time for the bin for this plug, which is likely where they will all end up given their general poor quality!
