FR: Support for Kogan 1.7l Kettle

[xbmcnut]

Hi there,

My Kogan panel heater is working great but was wondering if there was any intended support for the Kogan Smart Kettle https://www.kogan.com/nz/buy/kogan-smarterhome-17l-smart-glass-kettle/? Can't remember whether I'd asked that before or not.

I have the DeviceId and LocalKey using the 'Bleustacks' method but the integration just says unsupported device when I try and add.

[make-all]

It will require more information about the DPS available on that device. If there is nothing in the HA log, then using a command line tool like tuyacli or tinytuya to query the dps is another method, and probably more convenient when it comes to experimenting with different settings.

Thanks. I have the preferences_global_keyazxxxxxx.xml file that contains an entry for dps along with the deviceID and local key etc that I pulled using the Bluestacks method with an old version of Smart Life. Will that contain the data you're after? I also have a Tuya developer account so I'm assuming some or all of the stuff I can pull from there?

[make-all]

I think that XML file is the schema file for the device, which has all the useful information in it.

The Tuya developer portal can contain useful information about ranges and enum values, but is missing the DPS ID and does not always list all available settings. It is actually documentation for the server API, which often closely matches the device local API, but not always.

Happy to share the full XML with you. Can I email that?

You can email it to jasonrumney at gmail.com

Done! Thank you.

Wow, that was fast Jason! Sadly, after updating to 0.11.1 this evening, I still get the 'device not supported' popup after entering the same data in the provided XML. I rebooted HA (2021.10.2) after updating the HACS integration.

It is only reporting the current temperature, not the on/off state or the preset. You may need to add it while it is switched on so it reports everything.

If it really is only ever reporting current temperature locally, and requiring commands to go via the cloud, then you might be better setting it up as a temperature sensor in localtuya for now, as I haven't yet added sensor support.

Thank you!!!! I've been able to add it as a simple switch while it was boiling which is all I need. Now I can ask Google to turn it on!

[make-all]

Do you still have the log message from when you added it? If it was still only detected as a simple switch, then it must still not be sending all three settings (power, temperature and keep-warm setting).

Sorry, this is all I see in the HA log since the addition of the switch.

Based on info from issue #183, I have removed the preset from the config. It seems that this is a write-only command, or only appears in the output under limited circumstances. With just the switch and current temperature in the config, the kettle should now be correctly detected when it is on.

Please followup on issue #183 if there is any issue still.
