Add please: icons for smart plugs

Please add icons for SMART-PLUG’s in Home Assistant, alle smart-plugs are displayed as a bulb.

There are many icons to choose from. You just need to make sure the right domain and device_class is used if you want HA to know what is turned on and off.

First check if the device has an own app or webinterface. For instance Shelly has a setting in the plug to tell what it is, a light, socket, fan, … and the integration can take clues from that when adding the device to HA. If that does not help, we’ll need to know more.

Do the entity id’s start with switch, or with light? If all your smart plugs assume a light, that is strange, but you can take countermeasures. What integration is it, and are they shown as light entities or switches?

If it shows as switch, you can change it to something else using:

If it is a light, you can create a template entity to change what device it should be.

And last but not least, you can change the icon in the device settings. But then the icon won’t change depending on the state of the device.

And if there are not enough icons to choose from, there’s this:

would these work (in the icon field)?

Not a feature request as the ability already exists. Moved.

And moved again :slight_smile:

@krommetje3108 you have all of these to choose from:

Worth noting too that there are a number of custom lovelace components with extra icons. I use this one a lot. GitHub - elax46/custom-brand-icons: Custom brand icons for Home Assistant
