ESPHome - Blitzwolf BW-SHP6 configuration

Hi everybody,

I just got my Blitzwolf BW-SHP6 working with ESPHome on home assistant and wanted to share the config file so everybody can use it. I flashed my SHP6 using the tutorial for the Tasmota Github and it worked fine. But it was quite a hassle to but the plug back together so maybe using tuya-convert is better method. Intermit.tech has a tutorial on that, but i haven’t tried it, since i don’t have a Linux PC.

I based the config on the tutorial from Intermit.tech who used a SHP2 and changed the pin layout according to this post. Then I did some modifications to best mimic the original working of the device.

  plug_name: YOURNAME
  # Higher value gives lower watt readout
  current_res: "0.00290"
  # Lower value gives lower voltage readout

# Extra sensor to keep track of plug uptime
  - platform: uptime
    name: ${plug_name}_Uptime Sensor

I set the template switch to optimistic, because i don’t no how to do a lambda template. I’m sure this can be improved, but it works for me at the moment.

I hope this will help somebody,

Thanks for the share, looks to be a really nice product (sort of copy of Fibaro Zwave ones :wink: Would be a good contribution at cookbook on ESPhome website :wink:

Hi all,
Im quite new to Hass.io.
But like it allot already. :slight_smile:
Question, I hope you can help me.
I have flashed the SHP6 with a 3d printed flasher,
Now if installed Home assistant. Also installed ESPHome. I opend the WEB UI
I added a new device, clickt “edit” and copyed the configuration into the text editor.
added the Wifi credentials. But it is also asking for a API and OTA API.
Where can i find the API`s . Am i missing something or do i working in the wrong direction!?

The SHP-6 is configured with a static ip addres (No DNS configured) How does the ESPHome know the IP address because i cannot reach the device.

Greetings
Palermo

hello Palermo,

i think these questions are more esphome related, so maybe you can ask them in the related topic. if you cant figure it it out there i will look in to it it for you.

i wanted to post a response for a different reason…

My shp-6 actually bunt out, it was quite a show and a bit of a shock.
looking back and examining the burnt out circuit board, i think i put to much stress on it.
so extra recommendation to tuya flash or 3d printed flasher.

Although there is a slight change that my shp6 was faulty from the factory, no way to check. blame disassembly, i think

Oei,Watch out.
You dont want them to start a fire.
I have an 3d Printer so if anyone needs a Flasher. Please let me know.
I printed 4 of them already.

I relation to my problem I think may be the new version 0.100.3 changed a few things.
When I compile the configuration and upload the bin file to the plug. Still showing me that the plug is down. I`m still looking

Greetings
Palermo

For those who would like to use this with the tuya convert; I get the strong impression that these will not work with tuya-convert. The original plug tries downloading a firmware using a non-secure connection. These plugs try to use https, and that fails with tuya convert. I’ll try to see if I can use stunnel to get them to download a firmware, but If they do proper certificate checking, that won’t work. I’ll post my results here later.

A random certificate with a valid certificate from a private root will not work.
Off course the plug does not have an RTC, so cert based authentication will be a challenge. Therefore they seemed to have chosen to use pre shared key authentication.

The SHP6 tries to connect to a3.tuyaeu.com and sugests 2 cipher suites:

TLS_PSK_WITH_AES128_CBC_SHA256 (0x00ae)
TLS_EMPTY_RENEGOTIATION_INFO_SCSV (0x00ff)

So if they use a PSK it’s probably in the original firmware somewhere.

Nevermind, someone has already figured this out and the newest version of tuya-convert supports the new devices perfectly.

Only just received two SHP7, the double version of this. Won’t have time to poke the serial and stuff for a while, but uploaded some pictures if anyone wanna have a look under the hood before ordering these.


(No idea if ESPHome is possible or not at this time; looking closer the green module does say RL_ESP8285_Z0_V2.0 so I guess its just a matter of mapping pins one day I have the time:)
((or just pull the module, read the silkscreen, then probe the board another day https://ibb.co/album/jR0taa))

Done intitial pin mapping:

wifi module
IO1/TX   IO3/RX
IO5      IO4
IO0      IO2
IO13     IO12
IO14     IO16
IOUT*    GND
VDD

mapping
IO0       switch1 (next to wifi module)
IO13      led1
IO15      relay1
IO2       switch2
IO12      led2
IO16      relay2
IO01/TX   blue led
IO03/RX** SEL HLW8012? pin 8
IO5**     CF1 HLW8012? pin 7
IO4**     CF  HLW8012? pin 6
GND           HLW8012? pin 5
VDD           HLW8012? pin 1

*) no idea if correct, seems unused
**) untested

Hope to get it flashed soon:) Flashed, need to get buttons and power meter chip working.
Button shows up in log once, but doesn’t do anything besides show up in log.

works like a charm, thank you.
how can i tune this values?

plug_name: blitzwolf_shp6_04

Higher value gives lower watt readout

current_res: ‘0.00290’

Lower value gives lower voltage readout

voltage_div: ‘760’

I just received a SHP-7 and a SHP-9 (and some more SHP-6’S) I can’t wait to get the ‘7’ flashed, I have to open the ‘9’ to see if it’s also esp based, I really hope so :slight_smile:

Just try it. If it is not esp based, then it would anyway not accept the flash

It worked, it’s tasmotized now, so tomorrow I’m going to see if I can figure out the pins for it. It’s rather nice, 3 plugs, and two usb ports, and as I read it, they should be individually controllable.
Is there an ‘easy’ path for figuring out the pins?

I’ve made a very rudimentary template for shp9 now, and it’s uploaded to the repository.
It only handles the switches, LED and button, and I still have yet to figure out how to get powermonitoring active on this.

HI,

I have a BW-SHP6 15A. I flashed it first with Tasmota. The reading where ok. But I prefer ESPHome. So I used one of the configs here:

substitutions:
  plug_name: blitzwolf_shp6
  # Higher value gives lower watt readout
  current_res: '0.00290'
  # Lower value gives lower voltage readout
  voltage_div: '940'

Unfortunately, the Voltage and Amperage stay 0?? The wattage is correct. Anyone an idea? Or is the latest SHP6 using a different chip? (BL0937 and is not supported?)

I have had the same problem, the problem is wrong configuration.
