This device is basically a Tuya device, meaning, you can control it using the Tuya Integration inside HA. You are required to install the Smart Life (android | iOS) app for this to work (because we need User Code from the app for this integration).

Portronics Smart Plug 16A (Splug) (Tuya Integration) (Cloud Based)

Since we are using Tuya directly, we need an active internet connection for this to work. We'll look into making this local by using tuya-local or localTuya.

We'll get into the integration right away!!

Prerequisites:

• Portronics Smart Plug 16A (Splug)
