Just got panda pwr, I set it up and connected. I thought this thing works in same manner as smart lights with phone apps and u can turn off power from anywhere, without being needed to be in same room as router and connected to it. Am I missing something here?
The Panda PWR is meant to pair with another device like the Panda Touch. There are a few features to control your printer and measure power usage etc. when used in this manner. There is no app for the Panda PWR. It has a simple web interface that has limited functionality.
There is no app, but they are working on one. So far you can only Control it via IP Interface (Webserver). I for example use a VPN and thus I can switch it on and off from everywhere. You just need to set it up ones by connecting to the WLan Hotspot of the PWR.
Thanks… Guess paper weight it is lol.
It would be wonderful to have an app or a way to integrate with Google Home or Home Assistant. I only use it when I’m running a long print and not going to be home for a while. To turn it back on, I currently just unplug and plug it back in.
