Help required with configuring Eufy Smart Plug (UK)

Smashing! That did the trick. Thanks.

Edit: Wish I had got this sorted in time to do the Xmas lights :stuck_out_tongue:

Found an error, although it still works…

Mon Jan 07 2019 23:08:36 GMT+0000 (GMT)

Error doing job: Task exception was never retrieved
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/homeassistant/helpers/entity_platform.py”, line 344, in _async_add_entity
raise HomeAssistantError(msg)
homeassistant.exceptions.HomeAssistantError: Entity id already exists: switch.xmas_lights. Platform eufy does not generate unique IDs

Looks like this is fixed in the 0.85 release https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2019/01/09/release-85/

Broken again in 0.88

The interactive python version works up to the device connect part - but fails to connect with a recursion error

Working ok for me on hassio 0.88.2 although I upgraded hardware from pi to a nuc so installed 0.88 as a fresh install. Are you using this as a custom component or using the standard config?

Standard config.

Any tips to test - I did try it from the python console

Is it worth me doing a clean install of home assistant?

Did a fresh install still the same problem.

I’m on a python virtual environment

What version of firmware are your plugs?

Currently on firmware version 1.1

Ah I’m on 1.3

I’ll try upgrading to 1.3 tonight and see what happens.

eeeek - please don’t blame me if it breaks!

Found the issue - sometimes the Eufy plug goes into an unknown state. However Eufy App still worked https://github.com/google/python-lakeside/issues/2#issuecomment-386931395

FYI : @mjg59

Unplugging the device and plugging back in fixed it
