Sonoff smart plugs
The Switchbot plugs take a bit more work to flash, but that's an option as well.

Small smart plug w/ metering & wi-fi?
I'm waiting for Amazon to bring me some Switchbot Mini plugs today. By the specs it is super small for a rectangular outlet and shouldn't interfere with anything adjacent unless it's oversized. SwitchbOTA isn't as simple as throwing tuya-convert-os on a Pi but it's not unreasonable. ESP32-C3 inside so as a bonus it can be a Bluetooth/BLE proxy with Tasmota+BLErry or ESPHome. And with BF deals on their website and Amazon right now they're as cheap as anything ($22.49 for 4).

Low flicker smart lights?
I went through the trouble of flashing these bulbs with Tasmota using this process and have been happy with them (other than the extra effort required for the flashing process itself). At the time, they were a steal at under $3.70/bulb on Amazon.

Looking for a light bulb that can work as one of those natural light alarm clocks
I don't have a huge amount of experience with OTA flashable bulbs, as I've mostly stuck to Zwave devices and switches over bulbs, but I did recently get a few Switchbot bulbs that were flashable OTA. I specifically got them because they were ESP32 vs ESP8266 based, were OTA flashable, and were on sale at the time (under $4/ea, vs the $15+ that they normally go for). There's some good flashing info here and here. The flashing process is a little involved (basically DNS spoofing and injecting the Tasmota firmware in a MITM attack) but doable, and still works as far as I know.
