Ikea åskväder power socker on/off button

Anyone got this new ikea power outlet to work with smartthings? It looks like you can only connect it too ikea home smart ?
Anyone tried to pair it with smartthings.

It’s a Zigbee 3.0 device, so it should work at least just for on/off.

But if it’s part of their modular click together power strip, I don’t know if that’s going to work, it might need custom code if it is handled as a multi endpoint device.

Also, who names an electrical control device “thunderstorm”? :thinking: :cloud_with_lightning_and_rain:

Next question then. There is no option for it when I search for ikea so how wold one pair it ?

Pair it as a zigbee “thing“ then change the DTH to a a basic Zigbee switch and see if that works.

No, can’t find it😆. Not via the app

What steps are you taking when trying to pair it?

Try:
Add > device
Scan nearby at the bottom of the screen
Turn on/off the device while the app scans or until it is found.

How far is device from the ST hub? Bring it close when pairing.

Okey. Got it working. I pressed the reset button until the outlet turned of, then it started up again in pair mode. Thanks for the help!
