I’ve just bought one of their double sockets. What did you need to do to flash them with ESPhome?
I compiled the *.bin file within esphome and then flashed the socket using tuya-convert which I had setup on an old pi.
Check out this thread;
Got it. Awesome. Thanks.
I’ll have to go beg to borrow a friend’s Pi.
What did your final esp node yaml look like? How did you figure the GPIO numbers out?
@ Holdestmade esphome config worked first time. I had to do some poking around with the 2 gang light switch though to discover what gpio’s were where. But shall change the domain from “switch” to “light” before I install it.

So did you ever manage to sort this?
Yes, it works.
Thanks for your reply Lev!
I’m a complete newbie on Home assistant (Raspberry Pi came today!) and I want to make touch screen tablets in my house at certain entrances etc. I’m assuming Ener-J switched are not compatible with HA so would I need to flash them?
I’m having trouble trying to compile the yaml to get a bin file. It validates fine.

Hi Lev,
Using your config, the flashed devices work on home assistant but the hardware buttons don’t work for one of the switches. I’ve flashed three sockets and they all have the same issue. It’s always the the right hand side switch that won’t work physically but I can turn it on and off using home assistant. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
If you pushed the config for the light switch into the socket then it will not work, I remember having to poke around to find the correct GPIO pinout for the lightswitch, push the config from this thread to the sockets Ener-j Smart WiFi Weatherproof Double Socket
Also, you want to change the domain from “switch” to “light” when flashing the light switches, that was a hangover from the socket config copied and pasted!
How do I change the domain?
I’m flashing Ener-J light switches btw…
The buttons are working on mine, only thing I can think is that there may be some update or change on the pinout, cant recall but do they have any sticker with revision number, will have a look to see if there is anything on mine.
I’ve changed what you mentioned above - from “switch” to “light”…this is the error code when I validate…
