Try Setting Loop timer as follows for your Light & hope it will work. (just a logic based on my experience)
Loop Timer-> Restart Cycle = OFF
Check After Checkbox -> Set Min to 2 Mins
Enable & OK
Let me know your feedback
so in short.... how is this done?
I wish I can help but mine is the same. I've set mine to 3mins to turn OFF and it's off in less than 2.... often in about 1 min. Very disappointing. How complicated can it be to program a simple time-based timer.
Hi all, you can achieve that now with the new "inching" feature of the Sonoff Basic and others. It allows you to configure a pulse of a duration between 1/2 second and up to 1 hour. So basically you turn the device on either from the app, scene of manually and it will turn off automattically at the set duration of the pulse.
Hope this helps !
According to Mario, the inching function should work even with Sonoff Pow. I will check it soon. I need the timer off function very much to control my water heater.
I found that setting loop timer to use as "auto off" is not a solution, because timer is configured for specific day and time.
For example, I would like to set "auto off" to two hours. No matter when I power ON, device would go off after two hours.
Work around is to set device as Inching, but maximum timeout is only 3600 sec.
Any information if auto off can be supported?
