How to stop a Tasmota LED from resetting itself after being turned on and off 3X

Configuration

Hi guys,

Just trying to figure this out, as it’s a slight annoyance because sometimes the LEDs I’m using (Bneta Gu10) reset themselves if I turn them on and off 3 times within a short time frame. So I want to increase the number of times this is required or remove it all together if possible. Thanks!

Are you sure it is 3 times? It is supposed tot be 4 times.

Honestly I wasn’t sure because I don’t have them install in my home, either way though I want to be able to change that value or remove set option completely.

Actually, on the newest Tasmota firmwares, it is 7 times.

Fast Power Cycle Device Recovery

Implemented for situations where a device cannot be reset to firmware defaults by other means (no serial access, no button). It resets ALL Tasmota settings (equal to Reset 1 ) after 7 power cycles.

SetOption65 must be set to 0 (default) in order for this feature to be enabled.

Warning

If you have a weak power grid or frequent power brownouts its best to disable this feature with SetOption65 1 immediately or you’ll end up with firmware default devices after a brownout event.

Procedure

  1. Cut power from the device completely for 30 seconds
  2. Power the device on and off six times with intervals lower than 10 seconds and leave it on after seventh time
  3. Fast power cycle device recovery should activate and the device should be reset to firmware defaults

If you flashed a precompiled binary you can reconfigure the device using the web UI after the reset.
