Reolink with Duo Flood light

Hey all,

Using the reolink integration for this.
Seems to work fine ( using it on other reolink cameras ). But it’s seems to have strange behaviour with the floodlight. If I try and turn the floodlight on by an automation it fails almost always ( with a connection error ). Yet if I find the entity and manually turn it off/on it seems to work flawlessly; i.e. through the UI.
I’m using the same name for the entity in the automation.

Any guidance appreciated.
