"You've launched plugs elsewhere — so when will there be one for the UK?"

Today, THIRDREALITY is pleased to introduce the Smart Plug UZ1, a Zigbee 3.0 smart plug built specifically for UK homes. It combines real-time energy monitoring, strong mesh performance and a compact design suitable for everyday use.

Why do people choose the UZ1?

For Sarah, a mother of two in Birmingham, energy bills often felt unpredictable.
One quiet morning she wondered,
"What's drawing power when nothing should be running?"

Stand-by loads and unnoticed heaters added up. After installing the UZ1, she could view real-time energy data through platforms such as Home Assistant and schedule appliances with confidence — bringing greater clarity to her daily energy use.

Each UZ1 acts as a Zigbee repeater, helping signals travel more reliably between rooms and floors. Automations stay stable and responsive, even in larger or older homes.

The UZ1 includes zero-cross detection to reduce electrical noise and protect sensitive appliances.

Its status recovery feature lets users choose whether the plug turns ON, OFF or returns to its previous state after a power cut — ensuring predictable behaviour.

Measuring 5 × 3.2 × 4.9 cm, the UZ1 avoids blocking neighbouring sockets and fits easily into multi-device setups. It connects directly to mainstream Zigbee hubs, including SmartThings, Home Assistant (ZHA / Zigbee2MQTT), Homey, Hubitat and Echo devices with a built-in Zigbee hub.

The UZ1 also supports OTA firmware updates on platforms with OTA capability — such as Home Assistant and THIRDREALITY's ecosystem. Updates apply without power cycling, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted operation.

With the Smart Plug UZ1, THIRDREALITY brings British households a practical, energy-aware smart home solution designed for modern living.

Availability:

THIRDREALITY Smart Plug UZ1 is now available online, including Amazon or official website.
