The consensus

What reviewers found

Synthesized across the trust-weighted source mix below.

Across the reviewers we read, this is essentially the newer 2-pack revision of LoraTap's E26 smart socket with a higher 60W ceiling for incandescent-compatible loads. Early Amazon ratings sit at 4.5 stars across 60 reviews — directionally positive but a thin sample. The r/homeautomation and r/smarthome threads in our signal set (both high-trust) discuss the LoraTap socket family generally rather than this exact SKU, and the consensus there is favorable on ease of setup and integration with Alexa and Google Home through Smart Life.

What reviewers liked

  • Two adapters per package make it the most cost-effective way to smart-enable multiple lamps in this category
  • 60W rating accommodates incandescent and halogen bulbs, not just LEDs
  • Carries forward the established LoraTap design that r/homeautomation and r/smarthome threads recommend
  • Works with Alexa and Google Assistant without a hub via Smart Life/Tuya

Where it falls short

  • Only 60 Amazon ratings so far — too thin a sample to confirm long-term reliability
  • Same physical-fit concerns as the rest of the LoraTap line; r/smarthome discussion flags clearance issues in enclosed fixtures
  • Cloud-dependent Tuya ecosystem; no Matter or HomeKit support visible in the signals
  • No independent expert lab testing of this SKU appears in the data we reviewed

Across the reviewers we read, this is essentially the newer 2-pack revision of LoraTap's E26 smart socket with a higher 60W ceiling for incandescent-compatible loads. Early Amazon ratings sit at 4.5 stars across 60 reviews — directionally positive but a thin sample.

The upgrade story over the older single-pack is straightforward: two units in a box for households putting smart control on multiple lamps, and headroom for non-LED bulbs. The trade-offs are the same as the rest of the LoraTap line. Specialist-subreddit posters consistently flag that smart bulb sockets in general 'are quite long' and may not seat fully in tight fixtures, and Tuya-based devices require a constant 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connection and cloud account.
