I have over 14 Sonoff basic with ewelink installed at home. I'm just starting with homeassistant. After 10 hours of trying and following yours and others videos I have all my sonoffs in homeassistant as well as ewelink! - HAPPY!!! - THANK YOU!
I just went to set this up following this guide from start till finish, and it works flawlessly. In about an hour I managed to set up home assistant in Docker (something I've been postponing for a while), installed HACS, installed AlexxIT's repository, installed the integration, and paired with my brand new Sonoff Basic, that I just unpacked. IN AN HOUR! Extremely simple thing to set up. Thanks for yet another great video :)
Im wishing my setup was as smooth sounding as yours. I've made as far as having the VM installed in ProxMox. HACS, and AlexxIT repo installed. Integration installed. Edited my config file to include ewelink creds. however my sonoffs, (visible in the app) are not showing up after a reboot of HASS :(
I'm seeing this error, but not sure what it means at this moment Validation for DSorlov/hasl-platform failed with GitHub returned 404 for api.github.com/repos/DSorlov/hasl-platform/git/trees/master.
@@antonisantoniou2560 In my particular case, the .sonoff.json file has been generated with devices listed in there but somehow those devices do not appear on the Home Assistant interface :( any ideas?
I tried for hours to flash my R3 DIY to Tasmota with no luck and just lived with the R3 not included in Home Assistant. I came across this video today and this just worked. Thank you so much.
Wish I could give you two thumbs up. You gave me a BONUS with this video. I have a Xiaomi BLE sensor which I have been trying to figure out how to use. I noticed an integration for that while you were installing sonoff. Installed it too. AND it works!!!!!! Thanks for all you do for us.
Great tutorial as always! I just tried it with the Sonoff S31 plugs and the custom component also provides voltage, current and power consumption reading... perfect for washer & dryer status automation.
This is awesome, I've just got my RF Bridge and had read horror stories about flashing them. Came to watch your vid on doing that and discover I don't need to anymore. 🕺🏼 Thanks Drzzz and Alex!
WOW. you and Alex deserve so much credit. Alex for the work on the integration and you for bringing it to the public! I needed this so bad as I have the newer touch light switches that I didn't want to flash.
Hello! I want to start by saying thank you for all that information you share with us through your videos. I really appreciate it! Keep up the good work!
Many thanks for this. I just got my first sonoff device with v3 firmware, followed this video and setup was a snap. The installation has changed a little and become even easier.
4 switches with Sonoff Micro because it's flashed with multichannel firmware. I don't know why. Earlier you can fix this with device_class: [switch] setting. But in latest version this should work automatically (if device list loaded from eWeLink servers). PS: and thanks! Great video!
This was awesome and very simple, thank you very much. I already had HACS installed so installing AlexxIT Sonoff custom component was easy. I bought 3 of these SR26 Sonoff smart switches a few months ago with the intentions of flashing the firmware to ESPHOME. But it involved soldering wires to very small and cheaply built PC boards. So naturally, I screwed up the first one. But that to DrZzs, I salvaged the other 2 smart switches and am controlling my Christmas light with them.
thanks - I got this to work although the GUI is a little different now compared to the video. don't know how the heck I got it to work seemed to take a whole heap of keep trying but without this video, as a guide, I would never have done this in a million years! so thank you so much for your help :)
Wahhhh - thanks for explaining the drill, That was the main thing that was sacry, having to flash those sonof mini and the sonoff outlet, and Now they work with HA, Flawless ! Huge Kudos to Mr AlexxIT - being able to pull that is game changer
Oh man, thank you ! I am no stranger to FTDI cables and flashing and uploading 3rd party firmwares, but I remember my horrid experience trying to flash my Sonoffs .... with 5 different PCB versions and all that good fun (then a broken FTDI adapter.)... This one was a 2 birds with one stone experience. Now I have HACS that I was lazy to add and 2 new 4channel Pros I really didn't want to flash.... plus I upgraded my HA that I was avoiding for some time. Works perfect !!!!
You should make a "Best of HACS" episode, going through the best ones you use from there. There are so many it is a bit hard to see which ones are cool and which ones are broken/bad. :)
I have been looking for something like this for a very long time... Thank you very much! I can just say that for me, adding the country code had to be done in addition to the leading 0 of the phone number (unlike how you would actually dial the number). Great add-on and tutorials!
Thanks for calling this to my attention. I'm not opposed to flashing firmware, but I do like not having to do it. This made my latest home automation upgrade easier and quicker. Specifically, I've got a number of lights in my living room that I just converted to smart using Sonoff BasicR2s. One thing I do with this is use the ambient lighting (wall-mounted, floor and desk lamps) for when I'm on Zoom and switch to the main ceiling lighting when I'm not. (The ceiling light casts a halo effect around my head which is misleading and confusing. :) )
so this does still use the cloud servers to initially grab the configuration data... - which means if sonoff drops the servers, this setup will fail (at least to add more devices) - if i flash to tasmota, there's zero cloud touching - the devices talk directly to your HA mqtt server and that's it.
Hello, thank you for your comment, I am new to homeassistant and have already integrated a few Shellys without an app, it works well. Now I need a 230v 20A+ power relay with power measurement. Do you have a recommendation that even a beginner can implement? I totally failed with TUYA LOCAL, thank you
I got everything working according to this video but testing with an rf motion sensor it always shows as on in home assistant. I can manually set the state to off and trigger the sensor to change back to on. Does anyone know how to set the state to off with an automation?
Nice video. If I can give my 2 cents: Anyone installing S31 plugs (more than one) I recommend to delete the Sonoff.json file. In my experience leaving the configuration as " reload: always" breaks the communication with all your previous S31(s) when you add a new plug. The only way that I can have multiple plugs connected (I have 3 currently) is by deleting the json file and restart HA. When I say "breaks the communication" I don't mean it literally, HA can still toggle the plug on/off but the current and power readings are inconsistent.
If like me (new to Home Assistant) and you do this ... and wonder where the heck they are so you can set up actions.... They're not Devices. They're "entities". So for automating something, this is an example: Configurations | Automations & Scenes Create Automation (button on bottom right) Name: Name: Kitchen Tablet charge ON Description: Recharge kitchen tablet when the battery is low enough. Mode: Single Triggers: Trigger Type: State Entity: Kitchen Tablet From: 0 To: 15 Actions (this was where I got stuck looking for devices): Action Type: Call Service Service: Switch_Turn_on Targets: Name of your Sonoff Smart USB (or socket)
Hi, Loved your video and right away used this method :) works great. One question: HACS itself appears as a device. The sonoff units underneath it are not. As far as I can see they are entities. So, how do I address them in automation? Scenes etc..? Once again, Many thanks
Thanks for the guide! Managed to get it working, but I'm not so sure about the local control. When I block my Sonoff access to the internet with a firewall rule, it stops responding in Home Assistant...
If I understand correctly the little fib is that one still has to register ones devices with the ewelink cloud (has to make an account and communicate with their servers) so that this integration can find them. So what data ends up on ewelink servers?, some personal info, a list of all my devices, my public ip, maybe other info about my LAN gleaned from the ewelink app? Is there no way to just edit that json directly instead of depending on the ewelink cloud that you kinda promised one won't need. This still is not a 100% no cloud solution like DIY mode or flashing with Tasmota.
The Sonoff Basic entity shows up in Home Assistant but not the device so I can't create automations that require a deice entry. How do I get this device to show up?
I have the same problem. There is a "Call Service/ send Sonoff command", but not sure what else to input. Possibly something like "turn-on/turn_off" and the device id, but if the syntax and terminology were incorrect it wouldn't work. Many possibilities. edit: I just used a scene inside of my automation to get the device to turn on. ACTION - ACTIVATE SCENE - ENTITY (Sonoff device). You must first create a scene, choose "entities without device" and set the state of the entity - I made one for on and one for off. Might be a better way, but it works
I had same problem and with some help found solution: in automation choose "call_service" and then "Sonoff: send_command" and fill service data with device: 1000654387 switch: 'off' to make off automation. If you need turn it on, just replace "off" with "on". Notice for device use only part after underscore, for me it was switch.sonoff_1000654387
Great video I intalled all and works great, with the switch in UI. BUT, I cat do any automation with it. I've read alexx instructions on github but, no way I cant understand what I have to write in automation. Can you write a simple code to switch on sonoff mini when a buttun is pressed?
Great tutorial, I just try for connecting for sonoff pow elite to Home Assistant, but power, current and voltage not show, do you have idea for fixing that? trims
I've been busting my head here. I've used information for various videos you uploaded and everything worked like a charm. Took some guessing coz some vids are outdated but no biggie. I got the main idea and I've setup, rpi4 with home assistant, usb zigbee with 2 sensors and sonoff TXT3EU2C. everything working as indented with all your good advice and guidance, thanks a lot for that. I do have a question that I'd like you to cover on some next video to make my home "smarter'. I've tinkered with the automations and succeeded in all of them except the ones including sonoff wall switch. They are not displayed in "deviced" in automation, only as in Action: Condition, Condition type: State and then I can find them as entities. As state I enter switch.turn_on but they don't obey me. Perhaps I'm miss leaded somehow. I would love a guild about automation-script-scene and some cover on sonoffs in them. Thanks again, you helped me reach fast a good point of upgrading my home. :D
Is there a way TODAY to install HACS... Followed three different sets of instructions (even the official EVIL way with the script piping to bash) and had to reinstall Home Assistant 3 times... NONE worked.
hi please i have a problem with lights entities, i can't access to lightning i think because my home assistant is running inside of a virtual machine. what can i do to resolve this problem?
Sweet! I've been contemplating doing a garage door opener with the sonoff sv but haven't messed with sonoffs yet. I have no doubt I could flash tasmota or esphome but now that connecting it to Home Assistant without flashing is an option, I think I might just try it this way! Time to order a sonoff sv and a reed switch. ***Edit - Actually is that even possible?
I'm new in this "HA thing", but it worked just perfect! Question: there are no HA devices for these sonoffs, just entities. Does it make any difference? Can/Should I create these manually? Only thing I could notice until now is that I can only assign HA devices in the new Areas feature. Thanks!
Hello. Great video. I did everything step by step, but when I set the mode to Local, the Ewelink app on my phone with mobile internet can still operate the swithes. Can you please verify?
That hacs thing is not listed when I search for it. I have the newest release installed and restarted several times. Is it found any solutions for it yet? /Hunter
Hey, Love your videos and in particular this one regarding Sonoff. I have followed your instructions as well as I could, however, I think there have been some upgrades particularly to HACs. I have connected HAC and the Sonoff add-on, have edited the config file. I can see it in my HACs addons but I cannot see any devices, not sure what I have done wrong at this stage.
How would I go about to capture the pow watts used to not only store watts used for every minute but also infer the kwH consumed cumulatively over a period?
Hi. I copied the folder/files into custom_components folder inside config on hassio and after restarting the server I still cant get hacs to show up on the Integrations list. Any idea what else I could do?
Hello, I have a question if we do not have internet in the room but we have wifi all sonoff devices will switch to this LAN mode - in this regard what happens to the devices in the home assistant? Are they disappearing? What happens to scenes if the devices we set up in the home assistant have no connection to the ewelink cloud? ------ My question is related to the fact that I want to do automation that is local and if by chance there is no internet so that the scenes are not interrupted/disappearing. Is this a solution using home assistance this way? Thanks in advance!
awesome - but somehow when I try to add the custom repository the save button is ineffective. Anything I am missing in my HACS setup? I have token, installed one other custom integration, am on the latest version of HA and HACS...
Mike Karplus it’s a known bug the solution for which is incorporated in a HACS upgrade which will be released in teh coming hours. github.com/hacs/integration/issues/1143
top this works perfectly. only the RF bridge is not. he can see the bridge itself but not what I have connected to it. such as a remote control and a door sensor. help :)
great video, thank you it worked for me, but I only see them as entities and not as devices, and therefore they cannot be used in automations anyone knows how to solve this? (I am new to HA)
Thanks for a great video. Sonoff now works in my HA. I have a little problem. When I try to make a script, I can not select my devices under "devices". I can only find them under developer tool. Do you have a solution for that? Thanks Kim
Hello! I want to start by saying thank you for all that information you share with us through your videos. I really appreciate it! Keep up the good work! I am new to Home assistant and i am trying to connect my sonoff devices to homeassistant but SOnoffLAN repository is not downloading even after 12 hours. i am using latest version of Home assistant. Please help!
Hello, thanks for you great explanation. I have a problem with the imprementation tho. As soon as I disconnect my internet i get out-dated values (from before I lost the connection). So it still seems to communicate with the ewelink servers... Is the any option to implement sonoffs differently without connection to the cloud/app. I have a Sonoff TH-16.
This is super cool. I followed the Github page and my Ewelink devices are working. but the HA recognizes them as Entities instead of devices, any solution to change them to device?
Can't wait to try this Do you think it will work with the iFan03. It'll save me having to get up a ladder and take the fan down to flash the controller
Just tried it and get errors .. not in supported list. try github.com/peterbuga/HASS-sonoff-ewelink That does work but manual custom component install ..with Fan03 but gives you the multiple switches.
PS it does go out to cloud, and you will need to setup another ewelink user as only one allowed at a time.. and if you use the app under same user in HA you will error in HA.

this Sonoff and Shelly competition is amazing.
Does anybody knows if there is something like this for shelly devices?
@@LeonidMutti There is. Shellys do not need custom firmware for basic local control.

hello France!
thanks!
Thanks for the info DrZzs! Working 100% in a few minutes a Basic RFR3. Gracias, Adios!

Does this work with the sonoff camera? Would be great if it does! Rtsp is great but pan/tilt locally would be awesome.

that's amazing... I was dreading for so long to re-flash these devices... that was sooo much easier. thanks a lot man
That's great news, tomorrow I will try to integrate this in Home Assistant. Thanks so much for great videos. You're awesome Dr. Z

Seemed to work with another non-sonoff device I had in my ewelink account too. Exciting stuff.
excellent!
Nice, but seeing this tutorial makes flashing tasmota to a sonnoff actually looking more easier :-)
Sen bir adamsın, beni flash derdinden kurtardın hacı abi.
Can you please make a video how to setup sonoff door and motion sensors trough the rf bridge with this great integration
Yes, please
Pleassseeeeeeee DrZzs...........
Thank you, Justin! I'm digging into the HA world. This video was quite informative.
Hello! It turned out funny, I speak Russian and through you I found this author who speaks Russian. I went to study. Thanks!
Just a heads up, Sonoff LAN is listed in HACS now, so no need to add as a custom repo!
Nice video. If I can give my 2 cents: Anyone installing S31 plugs (more than one) I recommend to delete the Sonoff.json file. In my experience leaving the configuration as " reload: always" breaks the communication with all your previous S31(s) when you add a new plug. The only way that I can have multiple plugs connected (I have 3 currently) is by deleting the json file and restart HA.
When I say "breaks the communication" I don't mean it literally, HA can still toggle the plug on/off but the current and power readings are inconsistent.
If like me (new to Home Assistant) and you do this ... and wonder where the heck they are so you can set up actions....
They're not Devices. They're "entities".
So for automating something, this is an example:
Configurations | Automations & Scenes
Create Automation (button on bottom right)
Name:
Name: Kitchen Tablet charge ON
Description: Recharge kitchen tablet when the battery is low enough.
Mode: Single
Triggers:
Trigger Type: State
Entity: Kitchen Tablet
From: 0
To: 15
Actions (this was where I got stuck looking for devices):
Action Type: Call Service
Service: Switch_Turn_on
Targets: Name of your Sonoff Smart USB (or socket)
A scholar and a gentleman! Thank you! :)
Amazing, it works!!! Thank you Dr ZZS. :)

Great vid, now we need something for Tuya!
Fantastic video as always just what i needed to bring last few switches into HA

Hello. Great video. I did everything step by step, but when I set the mode to Local, the Ewelink app on my phone with mobile internet can still operate the swithes. Can you please verify?
thanks for the video.
But how can I use RFID controller Sonoff in this case
looking forward to your answer.
Thanks for the video ! how to add a 2 code sensor(door) with the new home assistant setup?
I managed to add my Sonoff switch into home assistant, but when i toggle it on in HA it doesn't toggle the switch on. Any ideas as to whats wrong?
Same here.
always saving my bacon with these videos
So will it work this same way as tasmotized? How to make automations and such? Can anyone help answering this?
That hacs thing is not listed when I search for it.
I have the newest release installed and restarted several times.
Is it found any solutions for it yet?
/Hunter
It came a new release a couple hour after I posted here and then it was found in the search.
Please help. My wifi Front door switch just shows unavailable
Please help me with S-MATE. How can I setup it for control MINIR3 from HomeAssistant?
Hello. For some reason the "VAR" Sonoff is not detected in the yaml file... it gives me an error. Any idea why?
Hey, Love your videos and in particular this one regarding Sonoff. I have followed your instructions as well as I could, however, I think there have been some upgrades particularly to HACs.
I have connected HAC and the Sonoff add-on, have edited the config file. I can see it in my HACs addons but I cannot see any devices, not sure what I have done wrong at this stage.
How would I go about to capture the pow watts used to not only store watts used for every minute but also infer the kwH consumed cumulatively over a period?
Hi. I copied the folder/files into custom_components folder inside config on hassio and after restarting the server I still cant get hacs to show up on the Integrations list. Any idea what else I could do?
Hello,
I have a question if we do not have internet in the room but we have wifi all sonoff devices will switch to this LAN mode - in this regard what happens to the devices in the home assistant?
Are they disappearing? What happens to scenes if the devices we set up in the home assistant have no connection to the ewelink cloud?
------
My question is related to the fact that I want to do automation that is local and if by chance there is no internet so that the scenes are not interrupted/disappearing.
Is this a solution using home assistance this way?
Thanks in advance!
awesome - but somehow when I try to add the custom repository the save button is ineffective. Anything I am missing in my HACS setup? I have token, installed one other custom integration, am on the latest version of HA and HACS...
Same to me. If you manage to solve it, please share the solution. thanks, Mike
Mike Karplus it’s a known bug the solution for which is incorporated in a HACS upgrade which will be released in teh coming hours. github.com/hacs/integration/issues/1143
solved! Restarted HA, updated HACS(=reinstall), new HACS UI, button works.
top this works perfectly.
only the RF bridge is not.
he can see the bridge itself but not what I have connected to it.
such as a remote control and a door sensor.
help :)
Thanks for video
I have question : does the home assistant support the sence function of Sonoff device ?
great video, thank you
it worked for me, but I only see them as entities and not as devices, and therefore they cannot be used in automations
anyone knows how to solve this? (I am new to HA)
Hi. Did you solve this problem? I've got the same problem. Kim
@@kimnser8017 did you find any solution for this?
Yes I have the same issue. The only thing I'm thinking is it would have to be manually done for each automation which would be a pain.
@DrZzs hello, i try use with MS01 humidity, only works switch, why i dont have stats humidity? ty
Hello! I have 4 Sonoff Th10 and by integrating one by one in configurate.yaml I only get one. Thank you!
Does anyone knows why I am not presented with the input field for the access token?
Thanks for a great video. Sonoff now works in my HA.
I have a little problem. When I try to make a script, I can not select my devices under "devices". I can only find them under developer tool. Do you have a solution for that?
Thanks
Kim
I did it at last! Thank you!
Hello! I want to start by saying thank you for all that information you share with us through your videos. I really appreciate it! Keep up the good work! I am new to Home assistant and i am trying to connect my sonoff devices to homeassistant but SOnoffLAN repository is not downloading even after 12 hours. i am using latest version of Home assistant. Please help!
WoW! Excellent! thank you! I wish this existed before hehe
Does this include Sonoff camera's?
Is there a way to reflash a sonoff device back to Sonoff firmware?
Hello, thanks for you great explanation. I have a problem with the imprementation tho. As soon as I disconnect my internet i get out-dated values (from before I lost the connection). So it still seems to communicate with the ewelink servers... Is the any option to implement sonoffs differently without connection to the cloud/app.
I have a Sonoff TH-16.
Is there a similar solution for Homebridge?
Thank you man ! Worked like a charm !
it seems this doens't work in Home Assistant 2021.12.10. You don't get the option to install the Sonoff tool.
Same issue
This is super cool. I followed the Github page and my Ewelink devices are working. but the HA recognizes them as Entities instead of devices, any solution to change them to device?
Can't wait to try this Do you think it will work with the iFan03. It'll save me having to get up a ladder and take the fan down to flash the controller
Just tried it and get errors .. not in supported list. try github.com/peterbuga/HASS-sonoff-ewelink That does work but manual custom component install ..with Fan03 but gives you the multiple switches.
PS it does go out to cloud, and you will need to setup another ewelink user as only one allowed at a time.. and if you use the app under same user in HA you will error in HA.
iFan03 supported github.com/AlexxIT/SonoffLAN/issues/30
