Thanks! I have the MCCGQ02HL in the Mi Home app now.

1.7.0 seems to be last version working with my devices running pvvx version (all of them are using it - I can’t test with the original firmware). All 1.7.1, 1.7.2 (beta or not) or 1.8.0 beta don’t get any value. Reverting to 1.7.0 and all is fine again.
I’m seeing that exception in the core log :

Thanks for reporting!. Fixed this issue in 1.7.3. New release has been released right now.
