I updated to the latest 1.07 firmware for this switch, but now HA is showing another update but the version is just 0xffffffff. Any idea what’s going on?
I think this is an issue on the ZHA side. We definitely don’t have a firmware of version ffffffff in any repo or listed in any manifest. I would say that you might need to restart HA or maybe do an “image_notify” in the ota cluster for the device . . . of maybe hit “skip”. If you have 1.07 installed then hitting “Install” should either cause nothing to happen or HA will report an error as it tries to apply a firmware that doesn’t exist.
Any plans to update the Home Assistant Quirk to allow easy setting of single tap mode through the GUI? I know you can go through “manage device” and go through the drop downs, but it would be nice to have it on the main device page along side all the other options.
I haven’t planned on doing it because for the settings to show up in the main device page the source of the ZHA core code has to be modified . . . so I haven’t been wanting to add bulk to that repository. I think @chack has had the same opinion which is why we have kind of held off. Here is the repo in question:
zha/zha/zigbee/cluster_handlers/manufacturerspecific.py at dev · zigpy/zha
I think that is where you would add them at least.
It at least used to be a couple places to get it to show up on the HA device page, I’ll have to go look to see if that’s still the case or what’s changed with separating ZHA out of the HA codebase.
I don’t know that I can guarantee I can get something started this week, but I can try to add it within the near future.

I just noticed that these switches don’t report power or energy summations. Any word on how to fix this?
I am using ZHA in home assistant. I have 7 of these switches and none of them report energy sensors. The 11 light switches I have report energy without issue.
Going from memory, from a conversation I had with @EricM_Inovelli a couple weeks ago, the fan switch (and the module) don’t have power monitoring hardware on board.
That’s bizarre… this post would insinuate otherwise:
It was originally included in converter, but it was removed as the fan module doesn’t have the components required for power monitoring as @rohan said above.

Huh. Why wouldn’t the fan switches have power monitoring?
I’m not an electrical expert, but I’m pretty sure it has to do with the fact that the circuitry is designed to handle inductive loads which requires a different set of components to monitor the power. And I am guessing that they are not natively found on the chipset that was used.

That matches my understanding as well.
