Yeah looks good but appears a lot of work to maintain and not able to sort / filter. Having said that if the community feels that is a better way to go we could just fork that and bring it up to date / add to it? Certainly I like the photos and maybe my spreadsheet could do with another column for a link to the product? Also his info at the top is good as well. Maybe this spills over into the ongoing request for an AU sub-forum where we could have stickys for this stuff?

I have some Brilliant wifi fan controllers flashed with Tasmota. They work well, our only small issue is that the slowest fan speed is still quite fast. Iām yet to find a way to adjust it, figuring that being a āsmartā device perhaps this is somehow adjustable.
The Aeotec dimmers advertise being able to be used as fan controllers as well.

Can the Fibaro or aeotec pucks be used for an on/off switch for bathroom exhaust fan? Itās an inductive load, which is not supported according to the product info.
But not sure if that only matters if you are doing variable speed / using the dimmer?
According to here https://help.aeotec.com/support/solutions/articles/6000165403-are-micro-switch-or-micro-smart-switch-made-for-ceiling-fan-control- the nano switch can be used for inductive loads. I use one for my ceiling fan.

Hi all,
wondering if anyone has successfully got the Mirabella Genio 12W G95 bulbs working on Tasmota? I have tried myself flashing them using serial, and I have got Tasmota running on the bulb, but the actual LEDs arenāt working at all. Any suggestions? Iām confident that I put it all back together properly. I have tried using Tasmota to configure an unknown device and just canāt get any lights to work. Any suggestions or is it bricked? Thanks
Have you tried using the I/O config from other Mirabella lights? Often they use the same config.
Yeah I tried a few of those different options and I canāt seem to make any of them actually get the lights to work. It has me stumpedā¦
I had a genio 9w white bulb that I couldnāt flash via tuya convert. I had given up on it as I wasnāt prepared to open it up and was using it as a dumb led light.
I recently got it working with localtuya and the responsiveness is great.
Still testing it out and have some suggestions and/or git commits for the localtuya project.
Yeah maybe localtuya is the go with these ones
I have 2 of these. Although everything works fine in the Tuya or Smart Life apps, the integration is not good. It wonāt create all the entities. As a result you can only turn the fan on/off. No speed control, nor any control over the light.
Sounds like you donāt have much to loose by trying. Apart from time but given you are here I can only assume you have already committed many many hours to HA like the rest of us.
Localtuya is not perfect and still has a bit of improving to do. But I have been seeing more and more tuya devices (in this thread and in my collection) that cannot be flashed. I think the future for devices like this is through a native local tuya api. Hopefully tuya donāt lock this down.
I like esphome and tasmota but I have found on most my off the shelf devices I donāt change the configuration at all after the first config.
My tuya fan wouldnāt show up on tuya cloud at all. I could only see my lights.
You might get similar results to my arlec grid tuya fan using localtuya.
Using the localtuya custom component and some testing though the tuyapi which it uses I was able to get and set the following datapoints (DPS, this seems to be a tuya term for a function that can be controlled).
DPS [1] VALUE [True] --> fan on,off > True, False
DPS [3] VALUE [6] --> fan speed > 1-6
DPS [4] VALUE [forward] --> fan direction > forward, reverse
DPS [9] VALUE [True] --> light on/off > True, False
DPS [10] VALUE [100] --> light brightness > 0-100
DPS [11] VALUE [100] --> light colour (cool-warm) > 0-100
DPS [102] VALUE [normal] --> preset mode > normal, sleep, nature
DPS [103] VALUE [off] --> timer > off, 1hour, 2hour, 4hour, 8hour
I had to tweak the fan.py in the integration to get the speeds I wanted for low, med and high.
I am hoping to find some time to make a git contribution to the fan component in localtuya to use the new fan speed percentage and add all the functionality the component.

Hi all.
Iād like to know if anyone knows whether the Zen Thermostat (Zigbee edition) is available for purchase locally in Australia.
Itās a slick looking unit, and will be perfect to operate my ducted gas heating. (Because itās a 3-star brivis unit it has no smarts in it at all, and to go down the native hardware route was going to require 2 or three separate components totalling something like $800!)
A little research shows me that Telstra used to support it with the Smart Home ecosystem, and Reece (plumbing, etc.) have the wifi version. Iām following up with them about the zigbee one.
Also, if anyone has other recommendations for zigbee thermostats that control a 24V AC wire pair Iād love to hear about them.
Centralite Pearl is another one that came up in searches,
https://www.centralite.com/products/pearl-thermostat
but they are hard to track down too.
Not all. Their support FAQ How to make Kasa smart devices controlled local only includes lists of products which can, and products which cannot, be controlled locally. Fortunately it looks like most of the common ones available in Aus are good 
Hey guys,
Anyone know if any smart plug with energy monitoring still works with Tuya Convert.
I just picked up some Mirabella Genio Wi-Fi Power Plug with Energy Monitoring, but they donāt work anymore.
I cant even add them to the normal Tuya app anymore (are they locked to the branded app?)
Question is do I take them back or take a chance that Tuya convert might get a new exploit.
My hatred for corporations has been renewed 1000 fold today, I tell ya. What a waste of time effort and money HAHA

I doubt this will happen to be honest. The git repo discussion has gone pretty quiet.
The TP-Link KP115 doesnāt require flashing and works with the HA TP-link integration, locally I believe. About $29 from Bunnings, The Good Guys, Harvey Norman etc.

Well, after going for a drive to Glebe Office works and picking up two, can confirm these donāt work either.
Ok, these look promising.

Wow, who would have thought TP link would be the best option HAHA
I am a bit concerned about this issue with the integration alert.
Did you run into this issue?
Thatās a surprise considering everyone else here has been able to flash them.
I avoid TP-Link out of spite for closing that local port. But they are offering custom firmware to Home Assistant users so itās up to you.
