New BroadLink device - #730

Open robertdavies opened 1 year ago

robertdavies commented 1 year ago

I have purchased one of these lights https://www.bg-home.uk/castra-floodlight which I believe uses a Broadlink chip..

I have tried using the cli from this repository and it finds the other Broadlink devices on my networks but seems to fail when finding the new device (see image)

cli_error

I did log the same issue before I tried using the CLI. This gives a bit more details about the chip type.

The mac address of the new device also points to being a Broadlink chip as it starts ec:0b:ae:

Is it possible to get support added? I can try and provide as much technical as I can about the device.

Thanks

Rob

You need to unlock the device in the official app. If there is no button to unlock it, sometimes it helps to completely remove the device from the app.

Please tell me if you can make it work so I can add the new product id.
