Home Automation - Smartkit

[Aardvark]

You can push the little button on top of the sonoff and it should come on if connected correctly.
Does not require wifi to be working.

Slowly working on a central interface for homeassistant - it'll go on a tablet on the wall.

I've been saying we should offer them for a while now. I'll have to find out, nothing else locally that I know of.

Only reason I'm after the one is because I have them in sets - by the garage and pool. Don't really want to introduce a "3rd" product.

You guys get your arm twisted by OneDayOnly on the AirTies thing? Their price is pretty epic unless I'm missing something?

 

[Dolby]

I approached OneDayOnly to see how it works and follow the process

That price won't be repeated - ever! So you either have a few more hours to get this (limited stock though) or the 3 + 1 special running until the end of February.

It is, but it's 16 hours and there are only a few left. Everyone loses a bit - but hopefully this creates brand awareness.

 

[ToxicBunny]

Figured.. and yeah I also figured everyone loses a bit but its a brand awareness thing..

Hopefully it works out for you guys

I have no money (doing a kitchen) and I'm running OpenMesh stuff at home already.. so I won't make you bleed too much

Anybody else having problems with the EWeLink app? Came home and couldn’t switch on lights. Tried pairing again after pulling out the plugs etc but didn’t work. Reinstalled the app but can’t connect.

I have web connection as I’m typing this with no cellular

I believe their servers are down again - there's another thread somewhere here with mention of it. I've got one Sonoff RF that's been offline since early afternoon I think.

Thanks, will look for the other thread. A bit of a bugger if many things are dependent on them because it seems there isn’t a way to switch on the lights without using the app ...

Just edited my post with a link.

Yea seems servers are down . Sigh

Press the button on the switch.

Incidentally it seems the servers are up, just too slow for the app to use. I turned on an rf switch and a couple minutes later a basic that is slaved to the rf unit turned on so there is some life...

Press the button on the switch.

Blush. Thanks! (Kept it pressed in like for pairing)
