Group lights trouble

Configuration Zigbee
1

Hi, I’m new to HA, and trying to configure light group. With group helper I created a group consisting from 4 zigbee lamps
It works, but very bad

Almost every switch does not turn on or turn off 1-2 lamps, and after that HA and z2m freezes for a minute
If you turn on the lamps individually, its work perfect, but switching 4 lamps at same time breaks system

I’m temporarily using a script that turns on the lamps in turn with a delay of 0.3 s and then it works more or less

Do you have any ideas on how to achieve normal work?

System: Raspberry pi 5 with Home assistant OS, sonoff zigbee 3.0 dongle E flashed with EZSP v13 7.4.3.0

Specifically for Lights - I highly recommend not using groups in home assistant - and instead set up the groups in your zigbee platform (this is very native functionally for zigbee) - if you use Z2M then once you make the group there - the new light.entity will magically appear in your home assistant.

Hope that helps give you a much better experience.

Thanks a lot, now it works perfectly :slight_smile:
I didn’t even know about such a function in z2m
