What happened?

I have 3 HS220 dimmers working fine with Homebridge but I bought a new HS220 dimmer which can not be discovered in homebridge. The working HS220 HW version is 3.0 and the new one that isn’t working HW version is 3.26.

i have done everything to reset including reinstalling the plugin, hard reset homebridge, etc. I have also tried using older version 7.x and that didn’t help.

What, if anything, has recently changed?

Adding a new HS220 that has a different HW version

Version

8.0.3

Node Version

20.9.0

Homebridge Version

Sharing that I am having the same issue with a newly added HS220, hardware version 3.26. Tired manually discovery with static IP address in configuration as well as broadcast config, etc. No luck. Cleared all cached accessories, uninstalled plugin and reinstalled. Finds the older HS210s fine, but not the new HS220 hw version 3.26.

looks like people use some tapo plugin with specific settings in the kasa app for Hubitat. They are saying new hardware uses different API

Same issue here with one i just installed today

Has anyone been able to get these to work just on a raspberry pi and home bridge?

+1 running into the same thing. Just installed 4 light dimmers and none of them showed up

[ram4life]

had this issue for me as well HW3.26 dimmers not showing up. my older dimmer was the only one that did.
ended up setting up home assistant, all devices immediately showed up

Same issue - Homebridge doesn’t see the HS220 on v3.26. 😰

Dang, I was having such great success with the other stuff I got a bunch of these HS220 switches. Same config as everyone else. I hero will come along, I know it. Thanks to anyone that’s tried and taken a stab at adding support!

Same issue here :(

Freshly installed those new devices and same issue. Looks like there are listening on TCP/80 instead of UDP/9999. There are not detected into broadcast.

I am also running into this issue.

@YannickLeblanc, did updating discovery to TCP/80 allow you to add it?

I am also running into this issue.

is there any update? I have the same issues

Same issue here :(

For a bandaid fix - I added the "Tapo P100 Plugin" in homebridge. In config, I entered my username and password for kasa, then a device name, ip address and model number L510 (which is actually a dimmable light bulb) and it is currently working.

Great bandaid fix! Just did the same and that’s working for me for now at least. Thanks for sharing.
