Sonoff iPlug Gen2 S41s Matter Over WiFi Smart Plug vs Sonoff iPlug Gen2 Type F Matter Over WiFi Smart Plug

They serve different regions, so the outlet decides first. For a European Type F socket the Sonoff iPlug Gen2 Type F Matter Over WiFi Smart Plug is the better plug, with metering and a 3840W ceiling. For a North American Type B outlet the Sonoff iPlug Gen2 S41s Matter Over WiFi Smart Plug is the fit, and the question becomes whether you need energy data.

Measurement and socket standard. The Sonoff iPlug Gen2 Type F Matter Over WiFi Smart Plug meters power and cost for European Type F sockets, while the Sonoff iPlug Gen2 S41s Matter Over WiFi Smart Plug is an unmetered North American Type B plug rated 15A and 1800W.

Yes. Both are Matter over Wi-Fi and commission into Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings and Home Assistant without a hub. Matter is multi-admin, so either plug can belong to more than one platform at once, and both use 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only.

No. The S41s is the unmetered model of the iPlug Gen2 line and reports no power or energy data. If metering matters, the Sonoff iPlug Gen2 Type F Matter Over WiFi Smart Plug is the one in this pair that measures and prices consumption.

North American households that just want to switch lamps, fans or coffee makers from whichever Matter app they already use, without paying for energy monitoring or a body that blocks the second outlet.

European households on a Schuko socket that want a Matter plug with a full 16A rating, energy metering with cost tracking and user-set safety cut-offs, for high-draw appliances as much as for lamps.
