Hi,

I followed https://github.com/esphome/esphome/pull/5535 to get ESPHome on my https://www.athom.tech/blank-1/tasmota-esp32-c3-us-plug-v3 but the relay doesn't seem to be working with pin5. I tried 1,2,and 4 and none of them enable the relay.

The button on pin3 seems to work.

I did confirm everything works on the original Tasmota firmware.

Any suggestion?

Thanks

I was able to get the relay to toggle by switching to esp-idf framework. Basically no other change.

Now the last thing I notice is that the LED seems to be in a constant blink mode (blue). But other than that, it looks like the plug is now working.

OK, the blinking LED was because I had not integrated with Home Assistant yet. Problem solved.

To summarize:

switching to esp-idf made the relay work
There is a warning from uart.c about the parity setting, but without it the communication with cse7766 doesn't work.

I think the issue actually was that the plug needs to fully power cycle(not just reboot). Then the relay works fine.
