Huge thank you to everyone who has posted above. I bought myself one of these and following this thread has helped me to get everything set up and running in HA. I do have a couple of questions that hopefully you can help me with:
I set up the power switch, temperature scale, backlight and ringer in HA and the status is being reported. Has anyone worked out how to control these settings using HA rather than just report on them?
Once I have finished setting it up in HA (using LocalTuya) is it safe to remove it from the Smart Life app and can it be connected to the official Inkbird app instead?
No, sorry, have not tried these. I guess the only one I would find interesting enough here would be figuring out how to calibrate the temperature offset, but I also have not looked at this yet. Since I use Homeassistant notifications I donāt really care about the built-in ringer (or backlight, for that matter)
I donāt think thatĀ“s possible, I assume it would generate a new localkey (due to the need of resetting the device) but feel free to try it out! Worst that can happen is that you have to re-integrate it back with the Tuya service again. Once you do that 4-5 times it also wonāt feel as annoyingly complicated
@Asmus is correct, if you re-pair with any of the apps (Inkbird or Tuya) then a new localkey is generated. That being said, if you use the Bluestacks approach you can pair with, and continue to use, the Inkbird Pro app which contains the same functionality as the Inkbird BBQ 4T app.
Thanks both. It would be useful if I could get the unit to make a sound either using HA or one of the apps so Iām going to give that Bluestacks method a go using the Inkbird Pro app, thanks for your help
Here are the Inkbird IBBQ-4T values I figured out while implementing via config flow if it helps anyone:
Value 1 TRUE/False Unknown
Value 19 c/f Farenhight/Celcius
Value 101 0-100 Battery %
Value 102 0,30,3601 Screen Timeout in seconds, (or 0 or 3601)
Value 104 True/FALSE Mute
Value 105 0 Unknown
Value 107 7541 Probe 1 Temp
Value 108 7631 Probe 2 Temp
Value 109 7631 Probe 3 Temp
Value 110 7771 Probe 4 Temp
Value 111 0 Unknown
@DDomnick This is great information. I purchased the IBBQ-4BW during Prime Days and Iām now utilizing your information as the basis for my configuration.
The IBBQ-4BW has the following DPS values:
Friendly Name Platform DPS Unit of Measure Device Class Scaling Factor
ibbq_power binary_sensor 1 power
ibbq_ 13
ibbq_wifi_on_off switch 19
ibbq_battery sensor 101 % battery 1
ibbq_timout 102 1
ibbq_sound switch 104
ibbq_probe_1 sensor 107 ĀŗF temperature 0.01
ibbq_probe_2 sensor 108 ĀŗF temperature 0.01
ibbq_probe_3 sensor 109 ĀŗF temperature 0.01
ibbq_probe_4 sensor 110 ĀŗF temperature 0.01
ibbq_light light 111
ibbq_wifi_signal sensor 112 dBm signal_strength
ibbq_ 116
ibbq_ 117
ibbq_ 118
ibbq_ 119
I believe that DPS 13 is bluetooth signal but the current value is 303300608. Not sure how to setup DPS 102 in localtuya as it is the value for the light to turn off. DPS 116-119 have no current values and I havenāt been able get them to change.

I can vouch for this method too. I wanted to keep using the Inkbird Pro app so went and found the last old version which kept the device key in the clear. You get a new key each time you pair, but with Bluestacks you can find the key quickly.
I looked some time back for an API or a way to get the data to Node-Red/MQTT but had no success. Happily, since then I started using Home Assistant. When I searched for adding it to HA, I found this and it works! Thank you, everyone!
Thanks to Trickiegt for posting the 2.8.5 apk of inkbird pro. I was able to use the latest inkbird pro app on my phone and get the local key with the old version in bluestacks. This was after signing up for an IOT tuya and doing it that way too which was not necessary. I wanted to have a fallback of the inkbird pro app since the tuya one is limitied and in chinese.
Now that I have the 4 probes of my IBBQ-4T wifi in home assistant. How do I get that data to show up in lovelace like some of the above CloudBBQ and the weber igrill. All of those are bluetooth using MQTT. Iām sure it is possible since the data is there. But I just donāt know where to begin with having high/low sliders for temperature points along with alarms/notifications.
I saw someone on reddit with this wifi IBBQ-4T has similar dashboard using nodered booleans and other stuff. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Another approach to get the localkey; use ADB. Install the 2.8.5 version of the InkBird app, login and make sure the device is connected. Enable usb debugging in Android, connect your phone with the computer and create a backup from the app with:
Butā¦ Iām here for something else. Iād like to integrate the IBBQ-4T as well but I want to keep the Inkbird app and all the cloud stuff so Iāve installed the Tuya Smart app, added the device: under kitchen there is a āFood Probe (Wi-Fi)ā device, pressed the button on the device 3 times quickly and choose āBlink Quicklyā, the device was discovered and added. After that Iāve followed the guide: Tuya - Home Assistant and got the device in Home Assistant. Butā¦ Iām just getting a climate entity: climate.ibbq_4t, thatās it. No temperatures. Am I missing something? Or is it not supported yet as of: Vote for Tuya Integration New Device Driver Support! Ā· Discussion #86 Ā· tuya/tuya-home-assistant Ā· GitHub where āTemp sensorā is listed?
I have the exact same problem.
Added the IBBQ-4T to the Tuya Smart app the same way royduin did and IĀ“m also just getting a climate.ibbq_4t in Home Assistant. (which can be switched on/off inte the app/ha, but no temperature-sensors in HA).
Is everyone, that has it working, still using LocalTuya?
Entire left column would like need a few things. I would actually do it different as I built that years ago and now know how to use ājqā and parse a JSON file. That said, here is the code for that:

I am trying to remember it all as it was a few years back I wrote this. That may be everything or maybe you can find some missing pieces and I will dig them out. That includes some things like the automation to announce on Alexa if a probe reaches a certain set temperature.
