Sonoff S40 Lite Stuck at Starting Interview

I bought a dozen of the S40 Lite plugs because I, too, thought I was saving money.

I tried 2 and had the same issue with both. Glad to see that you posted the thread, as I thought I might be doing something wrong. It looks like it should be supported, I’ll submit a report. SONOFF S40ZBTPB control via MQTT | Zigbee2MQTT
