ESPHome Treatlife DS01C Dimmer - Multi Press Support

Has anyone using a Treatlife DS01C Dimmer been successful in getting on_multi_click to function? I’m not having any success and I am fearful that there is a hardware limitation that is preventing this.

Have you tried using on_double_click:? Slightly easier to configure (and execute).

I’m not sure that would work since it’s using tuya mcu

I did try this - I tried all the binary_sensor events - only press and state seem to work.

I agree, it only seems to trigger a press/click when the internal relay flips. I do not think I can use multi-press with this device.

Can you recommend a good dimmer compatible with ESPHome that supports this?
