Tuya and their rebranded versions fall into that area too. Their power switches die early and they actually went from easily reprogrammable to hostile firmware.

Tuya and their rebranded versions fall into that area too. Their power switches die early and they actually went from easily reprogrammable to hostile firmware. They have own cloud service you can't leave, only get an access code to - and the firmware prevents downgrades. Terrible company.
- dns_snek 1y agoTuya is just an IoT platform used by many cheap devices but I agree, it's low cost and cloud based which is a terrible combination. I wouldn't touch it.

- baby_souffle 1y ago> Just buy the ZigBee versions, they work beautifully with HA 802.15 does have it's place but some of us prefer 802.11 unless battery requirements dictate lower power PHYs. Zigbee is also depreciated; if possible, seek devices using Matter for their interop.
