Hello,

My Sonoff pow is working great with ESPHome and Hassio but I want to switch it on while booting after power failure!

Is this possible?

Regards.

I’ve never used this service but from reading the docs I think you need:

esphome:
  name: rgbw_test
  platform: ESP8266
  board: esp01_1m
  on_boot: 
    then:
      - light.turn_on:
          id: h801_light
          red: 80%
          green: 0%
          blue: 0%
          white: 0%

also

light:
  - platform: rgbw
    name: "H801 Light"
    id: "h801_light"     ###  <------ Think this is required, id may be generated from Name: though, not sure. Can't hurt to add it
    red: pwm_r
    green: pwm_g
    blue: pwm_b
    white: pwm_w

As I said in the comment above, I’m not sure if a device id defaults to the name (but with all lower case letters and with spaces replaced by _ ) or not. You could experiment with and without the id: in the light config and see if it still works. Either way it should not hurt to specify the id and a name.

i will try this out when i get back home thank you.

@tom_l thank you so much it worked.

Did you need the light id, or just the name?

i had to use id without id he gives an error " id is required option [for light.turn on]"
