There aren't really any nice places to put the smart plugs. They are bulky and make it annoying for anyone trying to use that socket (or the one next to it), and ones in the open get knocked out by kids running past. Plus the ones I have don't have great range, a few metres (10ft or so) at best before they start getting dodgy. My skyconnect is unfortunately in one corner of the house where the raspberry pi and router are, and i want the button in a spot on the opposite side of the house. If the smart plugs do 3 metres each then I'd probably need 4 or 5 of them since the sockets aren't placed in a straight line between the two points, and it needs to go through 3 or 4 walls depending on placement. Hence why I was hoping for some way of jumping across the house using wifi.
