My power has momentarily gone out a few times and the outlets that were previously On do not restore that state. Is there any way to control that? The driver doesn't offer a preference but wasn't sure if that could be added if the device itself has a setting for it.
When viewing past logs, these outlets are creating info logging every hour that the other devices using this driver do not (I also have INNR and Iris smart plugs using the same driver). It basically repeats that the device is On and my other is normally Off and it repeats every hour that it is off. Example:
Third reality devices are famous for ignoring reporting configurations that are sent to it, hence other devices being more conservative in their reporting as they are honoring the configuration sent by the driver.
Regarding the power on state, that is governed by the device, not something we typically deal with in the driver due to possible sync issues.
I bought several of those and found out they didn't maintain state after an outage. I reverted back to my Centralite plugs that do remember state. Bummed.
Be careful with Centralite plugs. They are older devices that are not as good repeaters as some Zigbee 3.0 plugs. If you have any Centralite plugs in the mesh, do not attempt to add Aqara devices as they are likely to cause problems.
That is why I bought the Third Reality plugs. I saw absolutely no difference in performance between the Third Reality plugs (non-power-reporting) and the Centralite plugs. Do you know that the 3RSP019BZ plug is Zigbee 3.0? It doesn't have any indication on the device or the packaging.
I have not had any problems with the older Centralite plugs. I only replace them with the Third Reality plugs in hopes they would be better repeaters (more devices would use them as repeaters). I did not see any change at all and, due to the issue (now apparently resolved with a different driver) of losing state on power up, I switched back to the Centralite plug. They are still working well.
My oldest (and definitely not Zigbee 3.0) plugs - the SmartThings plugs seem to be the best repeaters on my network. Those were built by Centralite for SmartThings.
Hi @kkossev I'm using this driver you identified and suggested for my 3rd Reality power monitoring outlets and its working very well!
I can't find a source thread to it - wanted to suggest a change
Line 761
from
final String descriptionText = "${attribute} was set to ${value}${unit ?: ''}"
to
final String descriptionText = "${device} ${attribute} was set to ${value}${unit ?: ''}"
this allows me to search the logs for events by device name.
