Innr SP 242 (UK): what it works with
Innr · model SP 242 · For the UK
- Matter Unconfirmed
- Apple Home Unconfirmed
- Google Home Unconfirmed
- Amazon Alexa Via Echo with Zigbee hub, Hue Bridge or SmartThings
- SmartThings Via SmartThings hub (Zigbee)
- Home Assistant Via Zigbee coordinator (ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT)
Echo speakers with a built-in Zigbee hub can pair the Innr SP 242 (UK) directly for Alexa; otherwise it needs a bridge such as a Hue Bridge or SmartThings. Home Assistant picks it up through ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT, power metering included. It's a Zigbee 3.0 plug with a 13 A limit, and it repeats the Zigbee mesh. Google Home isn't on Innr's list, and Apple Home is unconfirmed: Innr says its devices on a Hue Bridge aren't passed to HomeKit.
