f, I threw my hands in the air and tried your little trick. Low and behold my c8 found and added each of the s31s

Absolutely Crazy right

I think I actually scoffed at the notion of adding a second "pairing" plug as a solution... but as it turned out, its GENIUS!

This seems interesting...adding a second plug in pairing mode seems to have helped two users get difficult devices to pair. FWIW...

Update: All Sonoff S31 Zigbee outlets up and operating smoothly - Thanks for the Troubleshooting advice! My observations: The Rebuild Zigbee Network should be used before doing the Pairing as it makes a difference. As well, if Device is found but pairing fails, put another Zigbee device, even if not yet paired, next to it in pairing mode, as they seem to help eachother out... It was the case, twice, in my setting up of 8 S31s. Thanks again!

Holy Wah!!! I just added the c8 to my home set up. It is the first Hubitat product that I've tried and was, at one point, on the verge of losing my cool. I had ordered the S31 ZB plugs when I ordered the C8. I have primarily used HomeKit for my smart home stuff but that has historically kept most all of the affordable ZB & ZW devices just out of reach. Anyway, I have spent 2 days trying to get these s31 plugs to connect to the c8 and have tried every suggestion that I have found in these forums …
