I got these compact wifi plugs EFUN from Amazon for a very reasonable price. But unfortunately they only support Google Home/Alexa/IFTTT. The only way to get it work with Home Assistant is to add an virtual input_boolean, then use automation to trigger IFTTT webhook, and then turn on/off these plugs by IFTTT applets.
The whole process is so complicated, unstable and unable to upscale. What I want is to communicate HA with the plug directly within the LAN. But I assume this is only possible with 3rd party firmware, like we did with Sonoff and Tasmato, right? So, does any know if such firmware exists?
Thanks.
