Aqara Outdoor Plug H2 EU – Smart plug with energy monitoring, RGB, Zigbee, Thread, Bluetooth, Matter, black

The Aqara Outdoor Plug H2 EU (RGB) is a 16 A outdoor smart plug with IP44 protection, Zigbee and Matter over Thread communication, energy monitoring and a separately controllable RGB LED. It operates on 100–240 V AC mains power and supports a maximum load of 3680 W. It can be used to switch and monitor the energy consumption of garden lighting, pumps, outdoor heaters, chargers and other mains-powered appliances.

The device can be switched between Zigbee and Thread operating modes. In Zigbee mode, it connects to an Aqara hub and provides access to the manufacturer's detailed energy monitoring, automation, load limiting and RGB LED functions. In Thread mode, it operates as a Matter over Thread device and can be integrated directly into a compatible Matter system using a suitable Matter Controller and Thread Border Router.

Compared with the standard Outdoor Plug H2 EU, the RGB version features a full-colour status LED. Its colour, brightness and effects can be adjusted, and it can be used both for visual energy-consumption feedback and as an automation indicator. In a Matter system, the RGB LED can appear as a separately controllable light source.

About Aqara

Aqara develops smart home sensors, switches, relays, thermostats, cameras, locks, lighting controllers and gateways. Its product range includes devices using Zigbee, Thread, Matter and Wi-Fi communication.

In addition to the Aqara Home system, many Aqara devices can also be integrated with Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, SmartThings and Home Assistant, either through a direct Matter connection or through the Matter Bridge functionality of a compatible Aqara hub.

Smart features

• Remote ON/OFF control: The connected appliance can be switched remotely.
• Energy monitoring: Real-time power as well as daily and monthly energy consumption can be monitored.
• Power-based automation: Increases or decreases in instantaneous power can be used as automation conditions.
• Scheduling: Automatic switching on and off can be assigned to specific times.
• Charging Protection: When Charging Protection is enabled, the socket switches off after 30 minutes if the load remains below 3 W.
• Load limit: In Zigbee mode with an Aqara hub, the permitted maximum power can be configured.
• Overload protection: The output switches off automatically in the event of an overload.
• Overtemperature protection: The socket switches off automatically if the internal temperature reaches 80 °C or higher.
• Child lock: The physical button can be disabled while control from the app, automations and voice assistants remains available.
• Status indicator configuration: In Zigbee mode, the LED can follow the relay state, operate with inverted logic or be switched off completely.

RGB LED functions

• Full-colour RGB control: LED colour and brightness can be adjusted freely.
• Lighting effects: The RGB LED can be used with different lighting effects.
• Real-time consumption indication: In Zigbee mode, the LED colour can provide visual feedback of current power consumption.
• Long-term consumption indication: A colour scale can be used to indicate changes in energy consumption over time.
• Automation indicator: Specific colours can be assigned to automations, for example for alarms or status indication.
• Matter light source: In a Matter system, the RGB LED can appear as a separately adjustable light source.
• Zigbee-specific functions: Some power-based RGB indications and detailed LED configuration options require Zigbee mode and an Aqara hub.
