Australia - Electrically Certified Hardware

Hi @markpurcell
Are you able to provide more details on how you got yours setup ?
I have my data coming in via modbus, but see negative values in my graphs, so need to try and tweak it a bit

Hi @KablammoNick
Did yoiu get anywhere with this ?

I’m also looking for 2 of these, where I can trigger the 2nd light if the PIR on the other is triggered, so need the PIR status in HA

Other option I’m thinking is the Mercator zigbee floodlight with a separate PIR’s and trying to pair them together for if HA is down

It’s probably even worse than that. My latest order from Officeworks came with non-flashable chips, i.e. not ESP. I’ve ordered some TYWE2S modules that are supposed to be pin-compatible, but need serial flashing and then some soldering work.

Just got few 20925 from OfficeWorks in Perth - the same problem as above @gregoinc mentioed above, complaining for too new firmware. Assuming new wifi chip. So whats will be cheapest WiFi/Zigbee plug with energy monitoring at the moment? Ideally Tuya convertible.

I think we’ve run out of options in this country. I was already contemplating of going back to Z-Wave ones, but the ~$90 per pop were the original reason I never bought more of them… :frowning:

Refurbished Zigbee switches on Ebay. I bough a few months ago and they have been great. Thinking of getting more.

Geez Telstra, that’s a bit rough. Just because you couldn’t sell them at your inflated prices…

price is amazing. My only concern is how to know if they are certified? Still trying to stick to legal products if possible.

Oh, some NIB ones too…at a price

They are ex Telstra branded and are certified for Aus.

Ok, you convinced me and was just going to order but found they has no energy monitoring? =(
I guess I just want too much.

Or I am wrong?

Ok, I was wrong =) Ordering.

There IS energy monitoring.

Been using them over a year. Can’t go wrong.

Ordered two packs to have some spare =)

Hey all. New to all of this but I added my Lenovo Smart Plug se-341a to my Home Assistant today.

I followed the instructions I found Lenovo smart plug SE-341A - #4 by matmunn14

I managed to follow all the Tuya and Tuya IoT instructions quite easily.

Hi @dexstar would it be possible for you to outline your config? Are you using MQTT to grab the data etc? Much appreciated, Mark

I’m using them with Zigbee2MQTT so you can publish/receive messages.

In ZHA they come up as lights. https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/62452

The energy monitoring was a bonus but I’m only using them to stop the charging of phones/tablets,
plus they act as routers in your Zigbee mesh.

The only downside ( like most smart plugs ) is their size.

I’m thinking about updating some of my power sockets to this

or going for a cleaner look

Looks like I have just had a Brilliant 20925 plug die. Not connected to WiFi, no power through it, no response to pressing the button. Any chance of being able to fix it or should I just throw it?

I had three 433MHz remote plugs which died. I gutted them and used a 240V AC to 5V DC converter with an ESPO1-S flashed with Tasmota. They all work well.

I just came across these. Zigbee so no need to worry about tuya cloud.

The site also have wifi (tuya) devices which could potentially be flashed / chip-swapped (mainly the re-wireable plug since it should be easy to access the board).
