I’m trying to add some spare / old greenwave devices which were working in my old home assistant install.

I removed them from HA but can’t get them to pair to Homey. I press the button once to start the process, then when it asks me to press it again I have to wait for the green wheel to stop spinning on the plug before it registers a second push. Once I do that, homey errors pretty quickly saying ‘something went wrong’.

I can go back to HA and re-add with no issues so I know the plugs are fine.

Try to add them to Homey, keeping them very close to Homey.
