D-Link expands its smart home presence with new smart plugs and a leak detector

D-Link is expanding its mydlink smart home ecosystem, adding new indoor and outdoor smart plugs for lighting and small appliance control, as well as a battery-powered water sensor to detect leaks in your home before they can do serious damage. All three devices are controlled via Wi-Fi, so they don't require a smart-home hub to operate. And since they're all compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, they can be controlled with voice commands, too. They're also compatible with IFTTT (If This Then That, the free web-based service that enables a device or application to trigger an action in another product). The D-Link DSP-W118 Indoor Wi-Fi Smart Plug can't dim a lamp, but it can turn lights and small appliances on and off.
