Thanks for the plug @Weasel1960. I do have a 6 outlet power bar that UK plugs will fit and you can also use the wifi Kasa HS103, HS110 or HS300, I believe there's a UK version for one of those models.

This was the closest thing I could find...
When I go to install though, there is only the drivers for the HS models you listed.
Do I need to install the specific drivers for whatever wifi enabled power strip I end up going with?

They do
They do require a specific driver, reef-pi covers 3 for sure, I don't know if the KP303 works though.This was the closest thing I could find...

I notice this supports the HS300 and the KP303...
github.com
I'm going to get one and give it a try and also look in the python-kasa source code when I get chance.

+1 for the TPLink HS300...

What do you mean? The HS300 drivers work with the KP303?
What is your question? I was merely recommending the TPLink HS300 power strip for Reef-Pi (or in general). I believe there is a driver developed to support it on Reef-Pi already.

Just confirmed the HS300 driver does work with the KP303, so if anyone else in the UK wants to set this up this way, the KP303 is compatible.
