Despite the date, there are still some Cyber Monday smart home deals available, but we can't vouch for how long that will remain the case. That means that this outdoor smart plug deal might not last for much longer, which is a shame. It's definitely one that you won't want to miss -- after all, how often do you save 50% off something these days? This TP-Link Tapo outdoor smart plug would normally retail for around $30 but you can order yours for just $15 today.

As far as lingering Cyber Monday deals go, we think this is one of the most useful we've seen of late. You're probably already familiar with smart plugs and you might even have a few of your own. But outdoor smart plugs are a whole different beast.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

This TP-Link Tapo solution can power and control up to two devices simultaneously and those devices can be controlled via a smartphone app or your choice of voice assistant. Support for the Matter smart home protocol means this smart plug should work fine with most systems.

Whether you want to make it easier to turn off your yard's lights or you have a water feature that you'd rather not leave running overnight, this outdoor smart plug could well be the answer. And at just $15, it's a deal we suggest you can't afford to miss.

Why this deal matters

Smart plugs offer a whole new way to power your devices and accessories, and putting one outdoors is even cooler. Getting your yard or garden ready for the night is something nobody enjoys doing when all they want to do is go to bed and this smart plug could make the process so much easier. And it's so cool, right?
