Feit Electric - Wi-Fi Outdoor Plug - BK7231

Thank you for the presentations!
I wonder if in Europe they produce these splitters for a European plug and 230V?

Thanks for the teardown. I just wonder how well this device can work outdoors, does the case provide enough insulation for moisture?

Some time ago I did a teardown of a similar product - lGarden Tuya CCWFIO232PK Double Relay - BK7231T - Programming

Honestly not sure I am qualified to comment on the level of waterproofing, but I had used it last year during the winter and it held up outside. That other product frankly looks better, because it actually has two distinct relays. This one only had a single relay for both outlets.

PS: thanks for all the hard work on OpenBeken!

When you flashed it, what did the lights on your plug do? I've got almost the identical device, except with both LEDs on it being blue instead of one red. Mine appears to flash successfully via BKwriter in Windows but when I disconnect the RX and TX pins then just power the board via 3.3v, I get one LED on solid, and the other just a constant rapid flashing. No access point appears so it's clearly having the desired outcome and I'm trying to see if I need to go through the hid_download_py method you said worked for you or if I should start hooking up to the RX2/TX2 pins to get a log output from it after flashing.

Edit: Figured it out. Turned out I was clicking the wrong button in BKwriter. I was pressing the FLASH button instead of the PROGRAM button. User error. I didn't pay attention to it the first time I pressed flash, which was wrong in itself as the instructions I've been following were to press Program, but then when i went to look for the Program button, I couldn't find it because the text on the program button were just random characters. Apparently after the first time I press a button on there, BKwriter changes what is displayed on the Program button so I was never finding it once I made the first mistake.

Huh, this is new. I didn't expect such an issue @mb78offroad , but I am glad that you have it resolved. Anyway, regarding the lights - remember, some LEDs might be connected to relay pins and work along with relays, and some LEDs might be on separate pin.
If you want to use them, you can always:
- set WifiLED role for LED to indicate WiFi (with _N if you want it negated), inverted)
- set LED role for LED and set the correct channel, then the LED will work along with relay on this channel. If you want LED to be inverted (ON when relay is OFF), set LED_n role (_n stands for negated, inversion)

Well I'll be darned, I ended up having to do that and just came to check to find that was exactly what I ended up going through just now. ^_^

Weird thing that was throwing me off was that the exterior of mine is identical to yours (prime cables exterior plug Cab-PC-08363) but the interior matches a similar Costco product more closely: https://www.elektroda.com/rtvforum/topic3875654.html#19906670
Followed this and got me so it's fully functional including the single/double click to turn on each relay individually. I guess the lesson is it's more about matching the guts inside.
