Has anyone tried these from eBay? Unbranded

Hi Edward. I think that all you need to do is use “Led1i” instead of “Led1” (the “i” suffix means the pin’s function is “inverted”, so 0v is “on” and 3.3v is “off”, more or less). This should give you the equivalent in tasmota as esphome’s “inverted: True” setting.

Hope that helps!

Hi Ashely, thanks mate… that was it! Changed it to “Led1i” and now it is working like what is should.

Thankful for your help!

Woohoo! Awesome

It looks like both Shelly1 and Shelly 1PM are now certified to meet Australia standards

I use Open Energy Monitor out of the UK - good kit. I have the SolarPV kit with 2 x clamps (solar and mains).

Hi All,

I bought a couple of these Kogan bladeless fans and went through the process of flashing them in case anyone wants to follow.

URL:

Flashing them with tuya-convert was fairly painless - just follow instructions and you’re good. I went the Kali VM + USB Wifi dongle and aside from having to install configure/upgrade drivers it was easy.

Next up was figuring out how they worked. Turns out TuyaMCU was the correct protocol which I probably should have guessed given how the remote and buttons all still worked even after reflashing.

On the console I ran:
"module 54"   - to enable TuyaMCU
"TuyaMCU 11,1" - setup the on/off button
"TuyaMCU 12,8" - setup the fan oscillation on/off

I’m a little stuck on the fan speed though. Sending “TuyaSend4 2,{fanspeed-1}” works but I don’t know how to set it up with TuyaCMD yet. If anyone knows how that part works I’d be interested to know.

Next up is to configure the MQTT part but there is plenty info already available on that.

Cheers,
John

I don’t have the same fan, but have documented how I set up a different Tuya based fan controller with Tasmota and MQTT.

Thanks exxamalte,
I’d actually found your blog while searching for the answers. I’ll have another read to see what I’ve missed.

I bought a couple of these e14 bulbs today from Bunnings

https://www.bunnings.com.au/arlec-grid-connect-smart-4w-380lm-warm-white-fancy-round-ses-e14-globe_p0111504

Unfortunately they came with the new tuya firmware, so couldn’t be flashed OTA. So these are off my list - don’t fancy pulling them apart to try and flash them and put them back together.

dazza25 · August 19, 2020, 1:04pm

Hi,

Any thoughts on the esphome code for the Brilliant Switch Mech product code 21322? I can flash it with Tuya-convert but cant get any joy from there, I assume it also needs the TuyaMCU stuff, which I have idea on as yet.

K-1 · August 19, 2020, 10:58pm

Sorry mate - dont have one to play with. But i would assume it would also need TuyaMCU config.

Tried this?

# Configure Serial Port for communication to TuyaMCU
uart:
  rx_pin: GPIO3
  tx_pin: GPIO1
  baud_rate: 9600

dazza25 · August 20, 2020, 12:18am

Thanks K-1

No, I dont have any understanding of the TuyaMCU config, I hadnt even seen it until yesterday.

Would I also need

*# Register the Tuya MCU connection*
tuya:

light:
  - platform: "tuya"
    name: "Master Bedroom Light"
    switch_datapoint: 1

or something along those lines?

K-1 · August 20, 2020, 12:28am

Yeah that should do the job.

LintHart · August 20, 2020, 10:57am

Hey guys,

I know this isn’t a tasmota forum but if anyone is running rules with their Deta switches would you mind DMing me? Trying to turn spare Empty gangs into buttons and I’m having trouble getting my head around it.

Thank you

Lint

K-1 · August 20, 2020, 11:02pm

Probably overthinking it? just put a automation rule in HA for the state of the switch/button to do something else.

If state is ON then do X
If state if OFF then do Y

LintHart · August 20, 2020, 11:53pm

Hey @K-1,
Yep absolutely I can do that, and have for where I’ve created a 2-way switch but most of my relays are really loud when they switch off so I’d like to disable them where empty.
Also I don’t really like the idea that there are relays on in the wall with nothing attached. I’m sure nothing would come of it but I know its possible to disable.

I’m also hoping to get my head around multi and long presses

Now if someone has a miracle cure for loud relays i’m all ears.

@boc with the way my morning is going that response may be the highlight of my day. Thank you for that giggle.

Lol shame I don’t think packing the void between the chip daughter board and the main circuit board with foam would do any good.

HasQT · August 21, 2020, 4:56am

If you havent checked out digiblur already… he probably is a good place to start with tasmota rules for multipress etc.
