Hi, followed through the video on the website, and all went well until the encryption/compile process. I left it for 20 minutes, and it didn’t have any error messages that I could see, but I didn’t know if it had completed, as the video didn’t really explain what I should see when it’s done. Anyway, I tried to fix it and deleted it from ESPHome Builder, thinking it would reappear easily. Not sure how to do this? I currently have entities on my dashboard/ESPHome Device Integration, but they are únavailable. Not sure what to do to get it back?
Tried a second plug and I get the same - on the instructions where it installs/compiles the software, the video suggests going to settings/ Devices&Services and pressing reconfigure next to any entities there (putting in the encryption key too), but I don’t see anything like it is on the video with a reconfigure button ??
Currently, both my plugs are unavailable.
Is there a way to factory reset them? Or what’s best to do to get it working?
