    Hi! Here is a teardown of a Bauhn Video Doorbell I bought from Hofer/Aldi Austria.

    The doorbell was really cheap (20€). I tried integrating it inside HA with the local-tuya integration, it works but the delay is too massive for me.

    Model: AIBSDB-0426
    Tuya Product ID: uafj1ef67agsubgo
    Board: IP15_MAIN_WX_V04 (20251207)

    Reset button (red) accessible on PCB.

    Tuya Protocol: 3.5
    Works with: tuya-local (Home Assistant)
    DP 212 fires on doorbell ring (ipc_doorbell event, Base64 encoded JSON with S3 URL I think a preview image. I didn't attempt to receive it for now)

    Flashing:
    Not yet attempted. Looking for community help - is BK7258 supported by OpenBeken?

    OpenBK does not currently support BK7258. Easy Flasher does support reading the flash though: https://github.com/openshwprojects/BK7231GUIFlashTool

    even with basic BK7258 support I imagine it'd be a lot of further work to then get anything like a functioning cloud-free doorbell firmware
