Do I need a hub to use it?

Yes. It is a Z-Wave device and needs a compatible hub such as SmartThings, Ring Alarm, Wink, Vera or HomeSeer. Alexa and Google control works through that hub, not directly.

Does it need a neutral wire?

Yes. It requires a neutral wire in the wall box, so check your wiring before buying. Older homes sometimes lack one at the switch location.

Can I control both outlets separately?

No. One outlet is controlled and the other is always on. Only the controlled outlet responds to the hub.

No. It switches on and off only. For dimming, use a Z-Wave dimmer module or a dimmable smart bulb instead.

The receptacle itself. A rocker-style wallplate is not included, so plan to supply one.

Will it work with Alexa or Google without a hub?

No. Voice assistants reach it through a Z-Wave hub. The hub is the bridge between the outlet and Alexa or Google.

Our take on the Z Wave Smart Receptacle Outlet with Alexa & Google

This is an in-wall Z-Wave Plus receptacle that replaces a standard outlet and gives you one controlled outlet plus one always-on outlet. It pairs with Z-Wave hubs such as SmartThings, Ring Alarm, Wink, Vera and HomeSeer for schedules, scenes and voice control through a hub. It suits homeowners already running a Z-Wave network who want lamps and small appliances automated without smart plugs. Against Wi-Fi outlets it needs a hub, but it runs on Z-Wave's mesh and stays off your Wi-Fi.
