Why WiFi connectivity in an electric kettle? Svensson Tuya SMART06B test

p.kaczmarek2 3717 32

TL;DR LABEL_AI_GENERATED

  • Svensson Tuya SMART06B is a Wi‑Fi electric kettle with Tuya app control, temperature selection, and remote boiling/keep-warm features.
  • Pairing works smoothly after enabling Bluetooth and location, and the app shows current temperature, heating status, preset temperatures, custom setpoints, and automation scheduling.
  • The kettle costs PLN150 and uses a TuyaMCU-style split design: a Wi‑Fi module in the handle communicates with the main MCU over UART.
  • Inside, the base holds a buzzer, small flyback power supply, YTA-SS-105DM 16 A relay, filters, a varistor, and a fuse resistor; the WBR3 module can be flashed with OBK.
  • A serious drawback is the lack of dry-boil detection, since the kettle heated even when switched on empty.

    And why should it be Chinese and not Russian or American?

    Because the American's minimum wage is too high and whatever the Russian does sucks. Except the lefties don't fit.

    The water in the kettle does not have to be stored at all , tap water can be drunk unboiled.

Topic summary

LABEL_AI_GENERATED
The discussion reviews a Svensson SMART06B electric kettle with Wi‑Fi and Tuya app support, questioning the practical value of remote control in a kettle versus the added cost over a standard appliance. The teardown and testing focus on temperature selection, keep-warm functionality, internal construction, and safety behavior when switched on empty. Participants debate whether Wi‑Fi control is useful for morning convenience, temperature maintenance for tea or milk, and integration with Home Assistant or voice assistants, while others criticize standby power use, unnecessary connectivity, and limited real-world benefit. Technical side topics include relay-based switching, flyback versus transformerless power supplies in IoT devices, operation on non-sinusoidal inverter output, and the presence of multiple thermal protections using bimetallic and electronic sensors.
