Having trouble finding a suitable plug that’s smart and suitable for use in the UK and doesn’t need credential with third party to use for my home assistant . Any suggestions with links?

I use innr plugs mostly, great if you have a zigbee network https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07TJ91K6Y
otherwise i'd recommend shelly for the best wifi ones with a local integration https://www.shelly.com/products/shelly-plus-plug-uk?_pos=2&_fid=2eb34a476&_ss=c

@wide mason Thank you for the recommendation. Innr plug is out of stock and thinking about getting the shelly 🤔

Just got into HA a few days ago and bought this 4 gang, it works great so I have another coming tomorrow, they also do single ones. Connected through the beta Matter integration.
I have to say, Home Assistant is absolutely awesome, I've already fallen down the rabbit hole and am addicted 😂

Does the ikea trakt power monitoring and integrate with home assistant without authentication/login third party?

if you have zigbee yes, no third party needed

i mean you will need the coordinator for the zigbee
