Nice hack. But my xiaomi air purifier works just fine with a non-xiaomi filter - only thing it will do extra is show a warning at power on.

- GekkePrutser 4y agoTrue for the older models but the new ones switch off after a certain time
- throwaway4good 4y agoMine is a 3H.
- GekkePrutser 4y agoOh ok, I heard some of them switch off for sure (after a few hours). I read this on an online forum discussing integration with Home Assistant, some users got around it by just setting an automation in Home Assistant to switch it back on again :) Which is what I would have done if my 3S had had the same problem. But it doesn't. Strange that some models are affected but others not.
- throwaway4good 4y agoMaybe it is because I am in the EU? This stuff is obviously in software and all my xiaomi gadgets get ota updates regularly.
- Mandatum 4y agoIn AU, mine doesn't turn off either.
- GekkePrutser 4y agoCould be. I'm also in the EU but most stuff on my domotica vlan has no access to internet. It's possible the purifier never updated after I connected it. I know the API I use to control it with home assistant is purely local. The forum where I read this was also EU based though. Weird.
