Well in your template switch definition, there is some logic, right?
Does it work if you call the service from the developer tools, Service section in Home Assistant?
Looking at the above, I would expect you would need some kind of automation, but I have to admit, I have not worked with template switches, but see that there are some references
Hello
I’ve made a special “All In One” custom component for full control of the Switcher V2 water heater.
The component allows the following:
Turn On/Off
Turn On with 15/30/45/60 minutes timer.

Automatic calling of the various notify services upon state changes.
Retrieving, Creating, Enabling, Disabling or Deleting recurring and non-recurring Schedules.
And the coolest feature…
You don’t have to anything besides adding it to your Home Assistant and co…
Based on the amazing work done by @NightRanger in his python script .
I was able to create a simple Custom Component to act as a new platform under the Switch domain.
The component allows me to turn on/off my Switcher V2 device with Home Assistant based on the information retrieved according to @NightRanger 's instructions.
You can check the new component on my Github page:
Hi,
I was wondering if this is the place to suggest the development of a new component for the Switcher which is a boiler smart switch
I’ve ran into an Alexa skill published to GitHub and am new to Python development
Would be glad to receive some guidance on adapting the existing code to Python
Thanks in advance,
Ohad
Hope these links help somewhat!
