[BK7231N] AP-SMT-Breaker02-1CH EZB-WBZS1H16N-A - 16A Mini Smart Switch 1 Channel

anthonythomas 
Unsure if this one has been posted already.

AP-SMT-Breaker02-1CH EZB-WBZS1H16N-A - 16A Mini Smart Switch 1 Channel
Bought from the AliExpress Choice Day sales

Different to a similar mini smart switch I have flashed.

BK7231N MCU is part of the main PCB
Relay is on a daughter PCB to rotate it

Used tuya-cloudcutter to flash OpenBK (didn't even setup in SmartLife app - just went straight to cloudcutter)
> By manufacturer/device name
> Aubess
> 16A Mini Smart Switch
> 1.2.1 - BK7231N / oem_bk7231n_control_switch
OpenBK7231N_UG_1.15.597.bin

Pin settings are possibly different to other versions - these work for my device.

Other topic is closed, so I'll ask here. Why key and relay is set as "relay ID 1"? Why not 0? Is the unused "Relay 0" any special thing and shall not be used? [Read more]

Hello! I've purchased half a dozen of those, and i've confirmed they're the exact bacth, at least from the PCB printouts. Could you provide me with the exact version of cloudcutter you were able to... [Read more]

Hi, in batch of three I had one Smart Mini Switch that has the same pcb. With one of them I had to pair it with "cloudcutterflash" AP with internet access by using Tuya/SmartLife App to enter WiFi... [Read more]

Hi riskorja, thanks for your feedback. I'm trying to flash the device and not just disconnect it from the internet. The procedure for that is at the bottom of the page you sent, in the "Flashing custom... [Read more]

Hi my goal was also to upload new firmware. As I observed the procedure, the first part changes the AP name of device SmartLife_mac to A_mac after that the light should freeze. I successfully tried... [Read more]

Some new Tuya devices are not vulnerable to Cloudcutter. Please just use soldering method to flash OpenBeken then. We have a playlist of soldering guides for uploading new firmware to smart device: h... [Read more]

Hello p.kaczmarek2, Thank you so much for all your work. It's been a game changer. I was trying to avoid my poor soldering skills :D but i guess i'm out of luck on that. Keep up the good work! [Read more]

@karrlsson are you saying that you do not connect 3.3V? Well, most likely you are powering it through RX/TX then, thanks to the protection diodes of GPIO. EEVBlog had a video on that: https://www... [Read more]

karrlsson 27 Apr 2023 09:32

Yes i do not connect 3.3v and somehow the chip this way is in programming mode always... no CEN to ground needed. i connect 3.3v only after programming to do inital setup without mains... But i just found... [Read more]

p.kaczmarek2 27 Apr 2023 09:56

I also found some time ago, that because of this RX/TX powering module, I sometimes have to ground the VDD of module, just to make sure it's off, in order to do a power cycle correctly. Still, powering... [Read more]

That looks like a true challenge. It's a shame that I don't get that kind of devices myself. Unfortunatelly the only viable solution I can see is the one described here: Teardown Tuya Generic Wifi... [Read more]

Thanks for your suggestions! I have zero experience with soldering tiny SMD stuff - nor do I have the equipment to do any reflow soldering. It might be one way to de-solder all the big components and... [Read more]
