Configuration
Sample Configuration
Minimal:
"platforms": "platform": "Hs100" "name": "TPLink"
All options with defaults:
"platforms": "platform": "Hs100" "name": "TPLink" "deviceTypes": // set to [] or ["plug", "bulb"] to find all TPLink device types or ["plug"] / ["bulb"] for only plugs or bulbs "macAddresses": // Whitelist of mac addresses to include. If specified will ignore other devices "pollingInterval": 10 // (seconds) How often to check device status in the background "switchModels": "HS200" // Matching models are created in homekit as a switch instead of an outlet "addCustomCharacteristics": true // Adds energy monitoring characteristics viewable in Eve app "inUseThreshold": 0 // (Watts) For plugs that support energy monitoring (HS110), min power draw for OutletInUse "timeout": 5 // (seconds) communication timeout
I only have HS100, HS105 and HS110 (plugs), so I am unable to test Bulb support directly. I'd gladly accept pull requests to add features or equipment donations (amazon wishlist) so I can do my own development!
I have written a TP-Link device simulator for automated testing that includes Bulbs. So while I don't have a physical Bulb to test with, I do have virtual ones!
Model | deviceType | Characteristics | Support |
---|---|---|---|
HS100, HS105, HS110 | plug | On OutletInUse (based on On state) |

HS110 | plug | On OutletInUse (based on energy monitoring) Volts (Custom) Amperes (Custom) Watts (Custom) VoltAmperes (Custom) KilowattHours (Custom) KilowattVoltAmpereHour (Custom) |
Good |
HS200 | plug | On | Reported Good Same API as Plug |
LB100, LB110 | bulb | On Brightness |
Not tested |
LB120 | bulb | On Brightness ColorTemperature |
Not tested |
LB130 | bulb | On Brightness ColorTemperature Hue Saturation |

Custom Characteristics in Eve
Devices that support energy monitoring (HS110) will have extra characteristics that are viewable in the Eve app. Turn this off by setting addCustomCharacteristics
false.
Accessory Names
Note the name in Homebridge/HomeKit may be out of sync from the Kasa app. This is a Homebridge/HomeKit limitation. You can rename your accessory through the Home app.
Troubleshooting
UUID Errors
Error: Cannot add a bridged Accessory with the same UUID as another bridged Accessory
If you get an error about duplicate UUIDs you'll have to either remove your cached configuration files or manually edit them to remove the offending entry. By default they are stored in ~/.homebridge/persist
and ~/.homebridge/accessories
.
You can remove them by running:
rm -rf ~/.homebridge/persist && rm -rf ~/.homebridge/accessories
You may also need to un-pair and re-pair your bridge to Homekit.
