But I was able to login via the cloud api using postman and see all my devices registered via the cloud.
The thing that hinders me and got me stumped is in the login() function.
I reviewed the code and saw that this part depends on the encryption that was used by the app. I am not sure if the current PyP100 is aligned with the current Tapo App or I’m doing something wrong.
But I think it’s safe to assume that the encryption step of the app does not need to know the type of the device nor the model. I want to reverse engineer the app but I’m still hoping someone here still has the answer.
I have Home Assistant on Pi Zero, when installing the Tapo integration I get the error Platform error switch.tapo_p100_control - No module named ‘PyP100’, I see that running pip3 install PyP100 would fix this but as this is a pre install image I cant install python. Could anone advise on this.
I had this issue. Initial attempt failed with the PyP100 error. Deleted the installation and the deleted the lines from my yams file, restart. Then began again, simply copying tapo_p100_control folder into the custom_components folder and restarting the server before adding the lines to configuration.yaml solved it.
Thank you! I had the same problem as @Richard_Erbe, running hassio on Rpi3B and that fixed it. Looks like order matters. For error no module found - PyP100, I copies files from repo Github PyP100, to the same folder as custom component:
EDIT: @fishbigger thank you for all of your amazing work!
I’ve been monitoring the component for some time now and I saw some behaviours that are quite problematic:
Tapo devices gets disconnected from time to time HA
This resulted my aircon to run for hours lol
Not too problematic - the response time of the switch is 1 to 2 seconds late
This Log:
Logger: homeassistant.components.switch

Integration: Switch (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 2:50:21 AM (114 occurrences)

Updating tapo_p100_control switch took longer than the scheduled update interval 0:00:30
Unsure what is happening. I might try to debug if I have free time but the holiday season is in.
Just wondering if there is any particular setup that need to be set up to run with the Tapo bulbs, just trying the 0.0.11 version though python on my computer just to have them turn on/off/brightness, but still getting the -1501 error when trying to set up. Running the L510B bulbs with 1.1.8 firmware, i saw there was some suggestion that i need to talk to TPlink to downgrade the firmware potentially to enable the connections?
With the Tapo P100? I just found HA yesterday and I was trying to do this and the only solution was to change the password of the tapo login. Don’t know if this helps.
The custom integration now has support for the L510 series of bulbs!! Please let me know either here or on github what features I should add next.
Installation
To install the Tapo P100 integration copy the tapo_p100_control folder from the github into the custom_components folder on your home assistant instance then these lines should be added to your configuration.yaml file.
Just created an issue on GitHub but in case anyone here has a quick fix for me, I had this working then this evening my Node Red flow to turn the lights on failed. Updated to the new version and also HA has updated to 2012.01. Seeing the below error:

Hi, I realized too late that your implementation already existed, so I made my own. I saw on the repository that there are credential problems. In my implementation, which is based on the plugp100 library, there are no problems. If you are interested, we could merge our works by opening a pull request. In addition, since I had planned to add the integration configuration via UI to my implementation, I can add it directly to this one that is most used.
