Mute RF transmitter for 10s after boot

ESPHome
1

Hi, I use a 433MHz rf transmitter to control a number of ‘klik-aan-klik-uit’ sockets and dimmers, configured as lamp entities.

After a power outage I noticed something strange, a lamp was linked to another transmitter. I believe this is due to the sockets entering a pairing mode for about 10 seconds on power on. When my esphome also boots in this time, it will restore the last state, but the socket will interpret this as a pair/de-pair request.

To avoid this I want to make sure my esphome does not send any rf commands for 10 seconds after a (cold)boot. How can I do this?

Fixed this by adding an unconditional delay on boot:

esphome:
  on_boot:
    priority: 500
    then:
      delay: 10s
