New power restore mode defaults to off leading to unexpected power off. #74

Open jpettitt opened 2 months ago

You added power restore mode to smart plugs. Unfortunately when I ran the ESP home update this defaulted to "off" and switched off my plugs unexpectedly. It would have been better if it defaulted to "last state".

early_pin_init (Optional, boolean): Specifies whether pins should be initialised as early as possible to known values. Recommended value is false where switches are involved, as these will toggle when updating the firmware or when restarting the device. Defaults to true.

I saw you added a description but didn't change the value, why not set it false?

For this problem, we are about to release a plug without relay version for EU, which can solve this problem physically.

It should default to false like it used to. This was a breaking change and should not have been pushed without notification.

PLEASE also release that for AU/NZ and also a bit skinnier to allow 2 plugs in one double socket.... Please, I have been hunting for a power meter only plug without relay.

The EU version has been released, and the AU/NZ version will be released later

@tarontop Hi Aiden, any update as to the 'no relay' plugs for AU becoming available? Thought they should have come out earlier this month? With 2 more dead plugs (on critical equipment) really looking for these to be released asap (if only on esp32).

Thanks
