SmartLife, could not get it to set up with phone auto or Manual. Eventually manual set up on iPad worked ... form that point on, phone app detected it and worked OK.

I'll try some distance testing today to see which is most suited.

By coincidence Big Clive has just posted an autopsy of a BG socket / USB charger that "emitted sparks".
