Does anyone have any experience of controlling smart devices through Tuya from an Arduino (I want to use spare solar energy)? There seem to be examples of creating an Arduino device which can be controlled by Tuya, but not vice versa.
Even the examples loaded with the Tuya_Wifi_MCU_SDK only seem to allow endpoint devices to be created (i.e. not a "controlling" device).
Hi Chris,
I´m also interested in controlling Tuya WiFi plug-switches.
Do you have a Tuya developer account?
Since they are selling their devices and their app(-templates) to customers, I expect Tuya to prevent us from controlling the decives directly.
A custom firmware would be great, but my smart plugs have a different/wrong microcontroller on board
Hi.
I have a developer account, but I've been waiting for for a while for my token ID from Tuya DevOps (at least to get control from Tuya).
The plugs are not Tuya branded and work with Amazon, etc. So the alternative route would be to understand the comms protocol for any supported smart device and control it directly, but I have also struggled to find published protocols.
