  • HA has very specifically targeted the device I mentioned. While I know ESP Home and Esp32 generally is a vast topic and catalog… There’s one primary device (currently).

    And it is, now, easy to set up once you find your way. When they improve the instructions, it is quite near to being a button click. And has been explained as nearly as much, hence the expectation.




  • I recently added a kasa smart plug using matter. Then the tp-link integration noticed it and forced me to reauthenticate.

    That’s my closest match to your story.

    It had been given my username and password before. But it needed them all over again. I’ve had that happen for other things before, too.

    Not sure if would help or if you have done it… But it takes about a literal minute to do.








  • Sunset routine every evening, steps through over 150 separate RGB values over 45 minutes. Improved our sleep.

    Turn off the cable box every night since the dwvs love to install new updates at 3 Am which iniitaites a restart, which, in turn, illuminates the entire bedroom. An unforgivable sin.

    Recently: decided we’d get curtains and make everything smart. It wasn’t a bank buster to get a couple gizmos. Night is dark and daytime the curtains open when my wife comes home - giving her the natural light she covets. Makes our humble 1000 Sq ft seem larger, besides.

    Now replacing our Google hub with an old old tablet. The S4 seems almost perfect and wallpanel is great. Especially if coupled with ha-Floorplan.
