This is ZG38C03142 model which DOES NOT have energy monitoring. The product picture on their website is incorrect as well. ZA7F0000WW is the one with energy monitoring feature.

I'm in process of returning these because of that.

Also Lenovo smart plugs are rebranded Tuya smart plugs which works works with Tuya app (and works with Alexa too).

How do you know that part number ZG38C03142 does not support energy monitoring?
I have contacted Lenovo by chat but they did not have the information.
I will have to contact Technical support during the week.

Do you have a link to the correct picture?

If you are in the process of returning that means you already have them? Is the model number still SE-341AC?
TIA.

Didn't realized I'd get quoted this many times! I could've worded it non-condescendingly but I still stand by it. If you're already using something you're not going to stop using it because of energy consumption. Everyone here is already aware of non-peak hours and turn on their washer/dryer after 7. Of course I care about saving money but knowing info about how much electricity something uses doesn't mean I'm going to stop using it. I agree with the people who said it's nice to know but that's as far as it goes. My point was this is not going to save you money because you're already doing what you're supposed to be doing to save money.
Uh, yeah, I'd like to speak to a Mr. Tabooger, first name Ollie.

I know ZG38C03142 does not have energy monitoring because I set up both ZG38C03142 and ZA7F0000WW. They are just different plugs and Lenovo put up a wrong plug picture and very lacking feature descriptions for both. Got ZA7F0000WW first then purchased ZG38C03142 seeing they have the same pics. If my memory serves me correct, Lenovo had two different plug model pictures available so I assumed I was purchasing ZA7F0000WW and ZG38C03142 was some sort of bundle code.

Above is ZA7F0000WW which does have energy monitoring.

ZG38C03142 does say its "product name" or "part number" (P/N) is SE-341ACC in the back. I didn't bother checking ZA7F0000WW's because all my ZA7F0000WW plugs are in use and I don't want to unplug my rigs.

Hope this clarifies for all.

It's misleading and disappointing that Lenovo would use the wrong picture.
Indeed, the model numbers are different with an extra "C" (SE-341AC versus SE-341ACC).
Thanks for the pictures and your posts; that's very helpful.
Which app did you use to set-up and run the latest plugs (ZG38C03142)?

No, as you've quoted above, this is NOT from Lenovo plug

This is the CE Smart one from Costco, like under $13 for 2-pack back in March, they are rated 15A and have usage monitoring, ties to Google Assistant, and can schedule on-off (to take advantage of overnight Toronto Hydro rates) costco-ce-smart-home-wi-fi-smart-plug-12-97-2445751/

Trying to find out if the ZG38C03142 has energy monitor is a pain in the ass. Tried contacting them 3 times and still have no answer.
Based on the above post and a lenovo staff on twitter, it is these ZA7F0000WW that has the energy monitor function.


Anyways, looks like the 2 pack ZG38C03142 deal is dead now.

I'm absolutely pissed these idiots used wrong picture and there isn't any energy monitoring. I wasted 2 hours trying to talk to their terrible customer support

I spent an hour, got return authority, and 10% from item price. Oh, well. Better than nothing.
