The pace of movement on zha has been phenominal! When I was using it a year ago it was so broken. Now I am really starting to see some awesome progress thanks to a few new people.
I have Elelabs Zigbee Shield and in my system I have 8 of these:
Are we talking about same devices - I think these are supported but I am not sure are the other Xiaomi temp sensors supported?
They have bee the most stable devices in my zigbee mesh. The one far away outside even in -25 C has been very stable. I have around 40 devices and for instance 3 Ikea signal repeaters in the system. What kind of values you get as RSSI/LQI for your sensors - are they far away from your coordinator?
Anyone willing to try https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/21866 and provide feedback? Youâll have to take the entire ZHA component from that branch and use it as a custom component.
I have couple of those and couple of the round ones (older?). The round ones actually report battery info also, those do not.
My RSSI is around -50 to -80 on all sensor. And LQI is 255 on all of them.
I just noticed that my iris motion sensors are no longer showing as a device class motion, Also my iris open/close sensors are no longer showing as the proper device class.
They still work, and change from on/off, just the default icons, and state names are default now.
Iâm on 89.1
itâs a bug in zigpy from a recent change. It is already being corrected. Hopefully will be in .90

How do I try this? Can I just download a zip file to try?
the aqara ones report battery too. The battery % will not show until the device reports it for the first time.
yeah and place the zha folder in custom_components. Apparently another change was added to HA that hasnât made release yet though. youâll have to change sensor.py to revert a change that brought in new HA constants.
What is the change that is required to sensor.py?
Also, where do we get this latest code?
thx
i must be doing something wrong as i get errors.

Thatâs the change you have to make that I referenced. All references to âpower wattâ have to be replaced with the value of that constant from the dev branch and the import has to be removed
I edited the sensor.py file and simply removed any reference to power_watt and restarted HA and no more error msg.
I am using the ZHA folder from the dev branch but I see that it hasnât been updated for 5 days so I wonder if this is the latest code?
thx
ps. This is what I am using
U need the zha folder from the PR linked in my message
I went there but did not see a download link. How do I download the code?
is now a good time to meantion that even with the dev branch i still get no zha_events.
i do get a switch for my switch.aq2 that turns on with a button press then after that does nothing what so ever
Finally some success got an Xbee, ikea repeater and a cc2531 flashed with router fw all joined To my coordinator. Added a few sensors. Need to spread out the repeaters and work on adding in the rest of my sensors - tomorrow/Monday or my wife will kill me after all the time Iâve spent on this!
that sounds like the quirk isnât matched⌠can you give me a screenshot of this device on dev from the ZHA config panel?
this is what i get on the dev branch
i have never seen any zha_event my ikea 5 button remote does not work either, i have only recently added zigbee though, and i never get anything showing on the devices under lqi & rssi
You definitely donât have dev up to date. There were PRâs that were merged that change what the device identifies as (thatâs why I asked for the screenshot) I suggest updating dev and trying again. Also, the 5 button IKEA remote is ZLL and not supported at the moment.
