I want to configure my sonoff t1 3c light switch with home assistant. I have its ip and mac address. From what I understand I have to do it via mqtt broker, correct?
I already connected the light switch to the iphone ewelink app and it works great thru there.
Nope. They can be integrated with Google Home via the Google Assistant Integration or HA Cloud. You won’t be able to use the Ewelink app anymore though.
It is also possible to use IFTTT with webhooks etc to integrate with Home Assistant. (I did this before there was a Google Assistant Integration)
You’re likely going to need to set up an integration with Google Assistant anyway for other devices…
The majority of people (I think) would flash with Tasmota though…
