Hey @bparees - interesting find! We don't have 11+ Echo devices to confirm this, but this is a good note on the maximum number of supported Echoes for future users - thank you :)
We don't have 11+ Echo devices to confirm this
Right, well i was more just hoping to see if anyone else could confirm they can't create more than 11 fauxmo devices. e.g. here's my triggers array:
TRIGGERS = {
"living room fan": 52000,
"living room table lamps": 52001,
"living room light": 52002,
"kitchen light": 52003,
"dining room light": 52004,
"bedroom fan": 52005,
"bedroom light": 52006,
"bedroom sun lamp": 52007,
"bedroom table lamp": 52008,
"bedroom amp": 52009,
"bedtime": 52010,
#"bedroom blinds": 51999,
# "hallway blinds": 52012,
# "kitchen blinds": 52013,
# "living room blinds": 52014
}
If i add any of the commented out entries, that's when things go wonky. Certainly doesn't seem likely i'm doing something wrong, but who knows.
I assume if i were to put them on distinct IPs things would work, but that's more than i want to deal with.

In my project I'm having a bunch of guys with similar problems. All these problems seem to come from Echo plus and 2nd Gen Echos. What Echo Version do you have?
2nd gen echo dots.
I've tried adding more than 11 devices, using ports above and below 52000-52010 and this seems to totally break the echo device discovery.... it never requests the setup.xml for the devices on ports outside of 52000-52010, and I think it also prevents it from discovering the devices on the ports in range too (though they are discovered if the out of range device is deleted).
I don't think it's an issue w/ this library, but it's something to be aware of (and i'd love some confirmation that others are seeing this limitation).
