Hi Everyone, Recently, I found an Edge Driver for Tuya Wi-Fi devices by Halwin12 on r/SmartThings. I haven’t seen any posts about it here yet. Has anyone here tested this driver? I tried using it with a Smart Plug with Energy Monitoring, but I couldn’t get the measurements to work—only the On/O…

I haven’t used the driver, but I have a little bit of experience with the protocol. Are you able to change the individual DPs? Like setting the “primary DP” to 1?

Yes, I can change the individual DPs. The “Primary DP” controls the On/Off state and reads whether the plug is on or off. In my case, it’s either 1 or 0 (I suspect 0 is a mode where the driver tries to automatically match the DP). For my specific plug model, the DP IDs are: DP 1 (switch_on) – O…

The idea is to find out if the communication works in general. Can you switch the device on/off with 1 at the primary DP?

Yes, the basic communication definitely works. I can successfully switch the plug on and off when the Primary DP is set to 1, and also when it’s set to 0. However, if I change it to something else (like 5), the on/off control stops working. So changing these options definitely alters how the driver …

Have you asked these questions in the original Reddit thread? The author of the driver should be able to answer them.

I don’t have a Reddit account, so I thought I’d ask here first. I was hoping someone more knowledgeable might have already figured this driver out :slightly_smiling_face:

I tied it last week. I paired 6 devices. 2 devices (light and outlet) worked as expected, 2 devices (light and power strip) worked partially, and a couple didn’t work at all. The light that worked partially knocked the device offline in the SmartLife app when I tried to use it in SmartThings. I al…

It looks like this driver is still a bit half-baked. I actually have my plugs connected to SmartThings the same way—using the Tuya Local integration in Home Assistant and bridging them over via the HA-Matter-Hub to get power and energy usage measurement. I was curious if I could bypass HA entirely a…

If done right, it works perfectly fine, but you have to know exactly what you’re doing.
