This was testing the wifi disconnect/reconnect stability of an OS (or alternatively the unplug/replug stability of a computer board + OS).
Here's the Node package I used: https://www.npmjs.com/package/tplink-smarthome-api https://www.npmjs.com/package/tplink-smarthome-api it could be made into a cool little CLI as well I guess.
HS100 is quite good, though after running/controlling it for a while, do end up sometimes in a case when it says its socket is off (LED shows that too), but the item plugged in is clearly powered. .. Kinda "you had one job...." situation. It doesn't happen too often, but enough to be careful about, if you switch it a lot.
