[QUESTION] Is it possible to use 2 devices with Home Assistant #418

Hi @Blueforcer,

Thanks for your awesome work! Sorry if I post a question here :/

I'm using HomeAssistant & I have 2 Ulanzi with Awtrix Light flashed on it. How I can connect these 2 devices with my HA instance? I connected one but the second is not possible because Mqtt broker doesn't support more than 1 device.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Thanks, I already followed this tutorial to connect the first device but you can't add another using HA Mqtt broker ...

Sure you can. Make sure you're using a different mqtt prefix and/or make sure you're running firmware v0.91

I have included a total of three ulanzi clocks in this tutorial.

Oh nice working well with 0.91!

I tried with 0.90 version but UI of clock freezes...

Thanks a lot 😁
