Does this now work with bulbs too?

Hi Scott
Do you see IFTT in available services in Smartlife app. Some people in Amazon complain that it does not work. Not all devices made to work with smartlife app IFTT support. I have two bulbs like that I cannot do IFTT. I use IFTT with my sonoff plugs that work with eWlink app and they all IFTT compatible
X64 method:
Thanks. Not working for me. I have an account but once I put the email and password and the program not responding and closing for me many times. Once I managed to put SSID and password but that time program vanished without trace after that.
I also tried running commands in Ubuntu 18.4 and 3rd run failed

Hi,
no they don’t work with ifttt, I was hoping they would work with this but i’m assuming not.
I have a few sonoff devices and even a non sonoff wall switch which are all flashed with tasmota, so I could control them with MQTT, is the ewe link cloud service still flakey?

Scott
Ewlink cloud service is OK for me. However I am planning to flash Tasmota too and just waiting for 3 more units with power monitoring. Have 3 plugs at the moment. Only thing is GH control will be lost but if required could be enabled via HA to GH
Probably will have to get rid of the two Smartlife bulbs though they work with GH well. I have 9 hues (3 colour and 6 whites) and just stick with them or get one Xiomi colour that is reasonably priced. That also not all models are compatible.
Hi,
i’ve used the windows app to get it working, now the switch in HA just have 1 seconds of taking my curtain down and than it seems that there is an error. anyone knows what could be the reason ? see the log i got:
Update for switch.switch_1 fails

Hey Sean,
Fantastic work. I have it working on my switches really well and it’s definitely quicker. May I just ask how the bulb support is going? I have bulbs downstairs and I don’t have neutral wires unfortunately and after weeks of pulling my hair out yours is the first which works. IFTTT HAS HUGE DELAYS and yours doesn’t
Hey,
I bought this switch:
It works really nice, but:
I want to use the 2. way of the switch just as a remote wifi button to switch a light on and off (only one light circuit is available in the wall). Therefore I want to use scenes for the 2. way. But scenes are obviously only available for one way of the switch:
Has anyone noticed the same and has a solution for this problem?
Thanks in advance

could be that after registering the same switch with this system but with different names HA recognized both names? like they are registered in my tuya account?
Thanks for the nice work
HA 0.74.0 added Tuya component. Does this mean we can now direcly control Smartlife and Tuya devices in HA?
New Platforms
Added support for Duke Energy smart meters (@w1ll1am23 - #15165) (sensor.duke_energy docs) (new-platform)
Added Push Camera (@dgomes - #15151) (camera.push docs) (new-platform)
Add Cloudflare DNS component. (@ludeeus - #15388) (cloudflare docs) (new-platform)
Add Tuya component and switch support (@huangyupeng - #15399) (tuya docs) (switch.tuya docs) (new-platform)
Add HomematicIP alarm control panel (@mxworm - #15342) (alarm_control_panel docs) (homematicip_cloud docs) (alarm_control_panel.homematicip_cloud docs) (new-platform)
Add Tuya light platform (@huangyupeng - #15444) (tuya docs) (light.tuya docs) (new-platform)
I don’t know, what does the documentation say?
It’ll still be cloud based anyway, who wants that?
Tuya and Smartlife apps work on same items. So I believe smart life items will work with this component. There are some who would still OK with cloud rather than throwing them in the bin. There are times when HA also crash and not working as expected so having HA and App control, Google home voice control for same item is kind of OK.
I am unable to check it for now as I have removed my bulbs and using Hue lights only for I could not get Smartlife bulbs working for me with HA. So just checking if anyone had tried it before I spend more hours on this

The answer is YES …you can now use Smart Life devices with 0.74.x +. You need to use the Tuya app on your smart phone to add the device, then use HA to import the devices. Should discover automatically once you add the devices to the Tuya app
I have 3 Covers with devices compatible with Tuya / Smart Devices
Can you make it work with new component?
Does the power monitoring work on the power monitor plugs?
I have only worked with the bulbs so I can:t answer this, but if you already have the plug, you should give it a go.
just purchased some sockets and the on and off worked straight off.
But no monitoring available yet, where would i look to try and work out the monitoring?
(Smart Life android app has monitoring working fine)
another vote for Smart Life
Already added by way of the Tuya component.
Yes sorry. i realized too late… had voted already 
and waiting for my raspberry to arrive to install Home Assistant…
