Tuya

Never heard of this brand. I went to check out the website. There is a link to download the app. Noted that it's Tuya/SmartLife. The Tuya/SmartLife integration on HA should work for you. If I was you, I would first buy the cheapest device and see if it really works. Then follow the rest. I live in Europe, and I usually return any smart home product purchase if it doesn't work with Home Assistant. Good luck!

If you live in Spain (works with all EU but they are based in Spain so even better) : Create. Bought 2 of them (they have pretty good deals currently). You can have a remote+wifi version, easy setup on HA through Tuya app. And models with or without light.

The Feit wifi bulbs are decent, especially for the price. Think I got a 2 pack at Costco for $18 (was actually the first smart home thing I bought 2 months ago that kicked off my mania). I have had the blinking light issue once in 2 months, that's their pairing mode. FYI: I did use the Tuya add-on to get them into HASS/HomeKit.

… bunch and one thing that I've noticed come up is the preference for Zigbee or Zwave devices over WiFi. I went through and swapped out most of my light switches with ones from Treatlife off Amazon. They connect through Tuya into my HA. I've noticed they are far more responsive through HA than through Google Home. So I guess what I'm asking is are these devices being better "used" and local only using HA? Or is it still routing through Tuya for control?

Proposed change Add water valve support for the standard Boolean `switch` datapoint on Tuya irrigation devices in the `ggq` category. Opening the valve sends `switch: true`; closing it sends `switch: false`. Existing `ggq` devices reporting this datapoint gain a valve entity, including the GIEX Watering Timer covered by the existing `ggq_7ytb3h8u` diagnostics fixture. Its entity is `valve.giex_watering_timer_valve`, with the water device class and open/close support. The existing fixture and regenerated valve discovery snapshots cover this feature.

The problem I'm currently using a "Calex A60 RGBCW" light, and when hooked up to home assistant, works nice. However, I started noticing issues with it once I hooked it up to home assistant, as sometimes the color or the brightness wouldnt change, when setting scenes or setting it manually. When looking into the logbook, I saw that homekit was setting the brightness and color in the same command, and Tuya seems to selectively ignore either subcommand. ### What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue? core-2022.11.4 ### What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core? _No …

The problem As mentioned in https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/80278, Tuya only provides a trial subscription for handling devices in HA. We all know that sucks, and we hope they will change that in the future. But for now we could reduce the pain by NOT DELETING Tuya entities if the subscription expires. When an entity is deleted, ALL the custom configurations we did for that entity is deleted as well (like switch_as_x, custom icons, rooms, etc). The entity is also completely removed from Homekit (instead of just being unavailable), which forces us to setup every single entity …

Tuya and all the various brands selling their products under private labels.

Tuya is a Platform and not a Brand. It does not make products, so the quality of the products depends on which brand you purchased. I have over 100 "Tuya" devices, and I have tested many different brands. Most are ok, Some are shit. But I have found some good brands that have good quality control. (MOES is good) I have been using Tuya for more than five years, and most of my devices are connected to a Tuya Hub, as I find that some devices are not fully supported in HA with Z2M or ZHA. I do have some devices connected directly to Z2M, and they work great. I do not use any WiFi-based products. …

The problem Over the past couple of HA releases, I've noticed after an extended duration of inactivity, if I were to turn on or off (usually on) a pair of Tuya switches or lights either through a HA scene or a HomeKit scene, one of the devices will not receive the command. In HomeKit, I have a bedroom scene that turns on a switch (with a light plugged in) and a dimmable bulb. Earlier this afternoon I set this scene - one of my lights turned on but the other remained off. Meanwhile HomeKit reports this scene as set and both lights as on. It's not consistent as to which device does not get an …

The problem # Bug report ## Summary When my Tuya-based intercom/doorbell (`SmartDoorBell-IPBox`) is integrated with Home Assistant, an incoming call rings only once for a few seconds and then disappears. When Home Assistant is stopped, the same intercom works normally: the call continues until it is answered, rejected, or the door is opened. I also observed that Home Assistant exposed the doorbell to HomeKit with a linked doorbell event. I manually removed `linked_doorbell_sensor` from the HomeKit config entry, which changed the Home app representation back to a camera, but the core issue …

U-Tec smart dimmer HA integration.. Hello I am new to HA and am struggling to get some devices integrated. I may have jumped the gun and bought some switches that I am now thinking may not be able to integrate with HA and I don’t know if it is something I am doing or a limitation of the device. I bought the U-tec smart dimmers seen in the pic and installed with their recommended app (U-home). Seems to work fine through their app, and even in the Google home app, but being a newbie to HA I cannot figure out how to add to HA as there is no integration for U-tec (other than for their smart lock) …
