So the Node Red SmartLife Air Nodes appear to be abandoned or support is no longer done? I have tried to contact the author via his direct email (which he game me some time ago), but no response. Tried to contact him via GitHub, no response, been several days in both cases. I have created a new i…

[image] Node-red-contrib-smartlifeair - Devices found but no Input available Hardware I gave up on this approach to controlling smart devices as it's just too hit and miss as to what works and what doesn't

Ya know, it was rock solid for some time. But now that I have this issue, it is frustrating because I am stuck in a logic loop... I can't get it working... again, because it is not working right now. The frustrating part, is the phone app is working, just fine, my id and password accepted, etc. I…

Presumably these are Tuya devices ? Why can you not just go through the standard Tuya nodes - once you have done the initial setup for the TUYAAPI then you do not have to do anything via the cloud after that - all comms is local Craig

That maybe the only option given the current situation. I just found (at the time) using SmartLife Air easy to do. My initial experience with TUYA (in 2018) was not positive, with their locked down, cloud only methodology. I now have a mix of SmartLife Air and Tasmota. Some of the form factors c…

[image] Nodi.Rubrum: and they have newer firmware so I can't trick them into using TUYA-Convert. That was the issue I found when I tried that route Until something changes, all current solutions (that don't use Tasmota type enabled devices) are subject to stop working at any time I literall…

Yeah, I have had good results with pre-flash Tasmota, and except for one S31 that just died for no clear reason. I have been able to flash a few myself, S31s, but if I can get things working with NR and SmartLife Air, that is fine by me, about half of my smart switches are the small round form fact…

Well you can go down the route of doing the developer portal setup - once it is done the device no longer need to talk to the internet [image] GitHub - codetheweb/tuyapi: 🌧 An easy-to-use API for devices that use Tuya's... 🌧 An easy-to-use API for devices that use Tuya's cloud services.…

@craigcurtin , Thanks for the reference. That is the next step, is to try TUYA API, I am just NOT a fan of using anything that is not local by concept. But... that said, I am going to try what you suggested, keep it local. I suspect I will lose my phone app access I have now?

Yep if you want to cut off the Cloud control then you lose control - but you can have this in parallel with the app if you wish - in my case the app adds no value for my heatpump so i have cut it off from Internet access (at my firewall and by the mac address of the heatpump/TUYA chip) If i re-enab…

I setup the Tuya App add a device, everything working. But when imported the device in NR via the node configuration, using the correct virtual id and key... from TUYA cloud. I either get no connection or if I get connection I get no response from the device. So something is not right. There ar…
