It is great that Sonoff/eWeLink listen to what the customers say!
I will be checking periodically for a firmware update using their GW, usually the OTA files are made available for upgrade for Home Assistant - this means it will be possible to ask Mike to make these available in Hubitat as well.
Using this driver it is possible to change the power-on behavior and to turn on the Zigbee radio high power (similar to Hubitat C-8 radio levels 4 / 16 )
