These devices don\u2019t technically have Alexa on-board, but you can control them with Alexa through Echo speakers or your smartphone.<\/p>\n<p>These devices work in much the same way as other smart power supplies, enabling users to activate the appliances connected to them remotely, either through the Alexa App or via voice control, as well as set and set on\/off timers.
