Support for Jiaoyue 650

[PsychoRS]

Hi,

Anyone got Jiaoyue 650 (white + RGB backlight), yeelink.light.ceiling4, YLXD02YL, work with ESPHome?

i have those lights, but i think you need to replace the ESP32 board inside the lamp, as it only has a single core ESP32 cpu that does not work (or does not work well) with ESPhome

All yeelight devices (with esp32 mcu) are single core versions. For me they are pretty stable if you don't use the bluetooth stack.

So can you confirm that this light comes with an ESP32 and not a mediatek controller?

[syssi]

If you don't want to open your device you could use python-miio to request the device info (miiocli info). In best case the hw_ver gives some info about the used microcontroller.

Hi @syssi I have this light and this is the output of the info call:

Model: yeelink.light.ceiling4
Hardware version: MTK7697
Firmware version: 1.6.6_0056

Does this help? Is there any chance that this light will work with ESPHome?

Its a Mediatek SoC, so no chance of running ESPHome unless you replace the Mediatek board with an ESP32 one.
