TP-Link KL430 issue #264

Open JBryant915 opened 2 years ago

JBryant915 commented 2 years ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

What happened?

I installed the plugin and looking at the logs, it discovers the light strip. It adds it to HomeKit ok. If the light strip is turned on, tapping the tile will turn it off. Subsequent tappings will do nothing.

I have cleared the cache, removed and re-installed the plugin a few times, cleared the cache and the issue still remains.

I have copied/pasted snippets of the log below where the plugin was installed and then after restarting the pluggin.

What, if anything, has recently changed?

Nothing other than installing the plugin.

Version

7.0.1

Node Version

16.15.0

Homebridge Version

1.4.1

Which OS/Platform?

I have the same issue with this. I wish the light strip would work!

JBryant915 commented 2 years ago

I have figured out that if I add a scene from the tplink list of scenes to HomeKit through HOOBS, that I can turn on the light strip using that scene and then use the normal tile to turn it back off, subsequently use Siri that way and also HomeKit scenes. The HomeKit scene was what I was after and this work around sort of solves that for me but it doesn’t work as intended.
