yes thats it i want to access my configuration files after flashing the device.
You didn’t answer this question.
But if you are using hassio then install the samba add on and then use any text editor to edit the files. I use notepad++. There is a vscode add on you can use as well.
now to make it even better you can install my fan control row via HACS or manually (I recommend HACS)
This is mine, running latest Tasmota firmware and the official MQTT broker addon. I am using the single entity row in the lovelace UI.
fan:
- platform: mqtt
name: "MBR Fan"
command_topic: "cmnd/mbrfan/FanSpeed"
speed_command_topic: "cmnd/mbrfan/FanSpeed"
state_topic: "stat/mbrfan/RESULT"
speed_state_topic: "stat/mbrfan/RESULT"
state_value_template: >
{% if value_json.FanSpeed is defined %}
{% if value_json.FanSpeed == 0 -%}0{%- elif value_json.FanSpeed > 0 -%}4{%- endif %}
{% else %}
{% if states.fan.mbr_fan.state == 'off' -%}0{%- elif states.fan.mbr_fan.state == 'on' -%}4{%- endif %}
{% endif %}
speed_value_template: "{{ value_json.FanSpeed }}"
availability_topic: tele/mbrfan/LWT
payload_off: "0"
payload_on: "4"
payload_low_speed: "1"
payload_medium_speed: "2"
payload_high_speed: "3"
payload_available: Online
payload_not_available: Offline
speeds:
- off
- low
- medium
- high
- platform: mqtt
name: "MBR Fan Light"
command_topic: "cmnd/mbrfan/power1"
state_topic: "stat/mbrfan/POWER1"
qos: 1
payload_on: "ON"
payload_off: "OFF"
retain: true
Thank you! that worked for me.

I have configured the Ifan03 in HA. I would like to run the fan even slower than the low speed. Is that possible the change the RPM of the fan.
No, the fan speed is set by the electronics (capacitors) in the controller.
Oke, thanks
Why do you guys set FanSpeed to 4 for on? That doesn’t do anything for me?? When I replace 4 with 1 it does turn on (to low).
4
**qos** : 0, **retain** : false, **cmd** : publish, **dup** : false, **topic** : cmnd/tasmota_8FAD22/FanSpeed, **messageId** : , **length** : 31
{"FanSpeed":0}
**qos** : 0, **retain** : false, **cmd** : publish, **dup** : false, **topic** : stat/tasmota_8FAD22/RESULT, **messageId** : , **length** : 42
And don’t you guys have the problem that speed in HA isn’t set to off when off?
I am sorry to be a pain, as I’m still new to HASSIO.
Can you please guide me as to what MQTT parameters you used in the Tasmota ifan03 config ? I think you used:
Client-mbrfan
topic-mbrfan
Is there any other name options in Tasmota that I need to adjust to get the if03 working?
I have mqtt working for all my other devices, just having the same troubles of not turning off and same speed as everyone else with the default mqtt / tasmota options.
Apologies for the dumb question

Just make sure your tasmota mqtt full topic is “%prefix%/%topic%/”, sometimes it gets swapped and causes dramas
Thanks so much for sharing - I’ll have a crack over the weekend !
All sorted - thank you so much for your help !!
finity - you are a genius and your code helped a newbie get up and running - thank you !
Just wondering if your control row can be enlarged? I am trying to get the buttons to be bigger.
I tried using ‘icon_height: 60px’ but to no avail.
Any suggestions?
Thanks again !
Jason
Thanks!
Not yet. But I might be looking into it at some point. I’ve had one other person ask about that too already.
‘might’ is good enough for me…
Thank You again for the code and effort !
Thanks for the great info posted here - I got my iFan03 to work nicely. I had to modify the yaml slightly, as sending FanSpeed 4 doesn’t seem to do anything. I made the default on state is “1” (low) instead, by modifying:
payload_on: "4"
to
payload_on: "1"
(and then change the 4’s in state_value_template to 1’s)
I’m not sure why that wouldn’t have worked I haven’t changed my config since I originally installed Tasmota on my iFan03.
unless Tasmota has changed something in the way it sends the commands.
Do you have an MQTT sniffer application like MQTTFx or MQTTExplorer? if so you can watch the traffic for your ifan03 when it’s commanded to do things (on/off/speed changes) and see what it’s sending around when you run the Tasmota control console. And then see if it’s different when you control it with HA.
