Got error "TypeError: msg.payload.toLowerCase is not a function" with node Power State Write

Hello

Thank you for developing great nodes. I just want to report an error when using Power State Write node. I input string "toggle"/"on"/"off" to this node and got error "TypeError: msg.payload.toLowerCase is not a function".

Could you please check? I used NodeRED v1.2.9 Thanks!

Me to

Node-RED version: v1.3.5 Node.js version: v14.17.0 Windows_NT 10.0.19041 x64 LE

A workaround seems to be

• Goto to the installed power-state-write.js directory (on Windows it is at C:\Users\.node-red\node_modules\node-red-contrib-ewelink\src\power-state-write)
• Backup power-state-write.js by copying to power-state-write.js.OLD
• Open power-state-write.js in an editor
• Search and remove ".toLowerCase()"
• Save file
• Restart node-red server

Thanks
