AIEL-2026-0001: SwitchBot Plug Mini OpenAPI layered reporting
This page is a purchasing/reproduction resource, not part of the canonical evidence record. Product status below is derived from the experiment record and retained project evidence.
Tested item and current purchase options
| Item | ASIN | Status | Evidence / role | Purchase link |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SwitchBot Plug Mini (JP), experiment-era listing | B09Y5KMVXD | USED / LEGACY LISTING / UNAVAILABLE | Listing associated with the device used for the documented OpenAPI v1.1 investigation. Amazon currently shows the listing as out of stock with no restock plan. | Legacy Amazon.co.jp listing |
| SwitchBot Plug Mini (JP), newer Amazon-listed model | B0DT6YMTXH | CURRENT SUCCESSOR / CANDIDATE | Amazon’s legacy listing presents this ASIN as a “newer model.” Amazon product information shows model number W2001400, manufacturer part number W2001401, and UPC 810150543209. Its OpenAPI reporting behavior has not been verified by AIEL-2026-0001. | Current Amazon.co.jp purchase option |
| SwitchBot Plug Mini related listing | B0DT6X8963 | ALTERNATIVE / CANDIDATE | Similar product family, but Amazon product information shows manufacturer part number W2001400 and UPC 810150543193, which differ from B0DT6YMTXH. It is therefore not treated as the same SKU or as the verified successor used in the experiment. | Alternative Amazon.co.jp purchase option |
| Wi-Fi internet connection | — | USED | Device/cloud connectivity | Not a product recommendation |
| Computer capable of running Python | — | USED | Independent API polling/logger | Use existing equipment |
| Google Apps Script environment | — | USED | Independent secondary polling path used during the investigation | Service, not hardware |
Evidence boundary
USED means the item or capability was actually part of the documented investigation. It does not mean that every currently sold revision, listing, or substitute product has been independently verified.
CURRENT SUCCESSOR / CANDIDATE means Amazon currently presents the newer ASIN as the legacy product’s newer model, but AIEL has not verified that its hardware, firmware, cloud reporting thresholds, or OpenAPI behavior are identical to the experiment-era device.
ALTERNATIVE / CANDIDATE means the listing is commercially related and technically similar, but its identity or equivalence to the tested item has not been established. Publishing an affiliate link for the alternative does not upgrade its evidence status.
The Amazon product information observed for the two current listings shares model number W2001400, but the manufacturer part number and UPC differ: B0DT6X8963 is W2001400 / 810150543193, while B0DT6YMTXH is W2001401 / 810150543209. For this reason they are not represented as the same SKU.
The experiment established layered reporting behavior only for the investigated Plug Mini (JP) context. It did not establish that the successor or alternative listings reproduce the same OpenAPI behavior.
Amazon Associates disclosure
The Amazon.co.jp links above are Amazon Associates Special Links supplied for this site. AI Experiment Log may earn a commission from qualifying purchases. The existence or amount of any commission does not change the evidence status, analysis, or conclusions of the related Experiment.
The primary current purchase link points readers to the Amazon-listed successor candidate because the experiment-era listing is unavailable. The alternative listing is provided as a separate ALTERNATIVE / CANDIDATE option. Neither purchasing convenience upgrades either current listing to VERIFIED_COMPATIBLE, and neither implies that its hardware, firmware, or OpenAPI reporting behavior has been independently verified.
