2 years ago Hi @MMV17,
did you get it running? Well, the only thing I could think of at the moment is the setcap command. Be sure to use it with the ticks: sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f which node) and not with those ' or without ticks like in your comment.
This is usually the problem when the complete bluetooth module doesn't start running like in your case.
When I try to run this plugin I get this [Tank] Warning - Waiting for bluetooth low energy hardware to power on, over and over.
Also I would like to add I have tried sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f
which node) many times. As well, as that I get these errors [12/05/2022, 19:57:29] [homebridge-inkbird-bt-thsensor] This plugin slows down Homebridge.
