Woox R6113

Post by manjh »

i am considering to buy a couple of these units. Basically a switch, but with power measuring on board.
But without support in Domoticz, it is not really a good buy for me.

Is there a way to link these units to Domoticz? From the description I can see they are Wifi connected, and are not Zigbee or Zwave...
Any ideas?

I believe they are Tuya-based, so you could use:
http://www.domoticz.com/wiki/plugins/plugin.html
https://github.com/guino/Domoticz-TUYA
Works for me, but without the energy consumption data.
Edit: just saw that the url's are no longer valid. Maybe some other github source will provide a Tuya solution.

I'm considering the same, have you bought those R6113's? Which Tuya plugin do you use and can you read-out the power consumption?

I use the Tuya app on my Android phone for measurements readout.
In Domoticz I use the Tuya plugin, the woox devices show up as simple on/off switch. I have not been able to find the measurements there.

In the end it might be useful to use zigbee2mqtt and get yourself some zigbee wallplugs.
This because you can build a mesh network, devices are (mostly) cheaper and you can extend it with other nice hardware (bulbs, temperature sensors etc)

Agreed, ZigBee is a better way to go. I already use Zigbee2MQTT, with a Conbee, three IKEA lamps, and five Heimann smoke detectors. The IKEA lamps are part of the backbone, the smoke detectors are end devices.
Where I donot agree: price of ZIgbee devices are not generally lower. The Woox type switches for example, I bought for about €20 for a set of three. Try that with similar Zigbee devices.

So, what are affordable devices to read powerconsumption?
Price around the Woox and fully functional in domoticz?
