And when the light is flashing are you pressing the button every two seconds?  
You should keep the device alive till it is added.

Yesterday I also tried to add some aqara devices for the first time and also had some issues with it.  
what seemed to help wirh me is I needed to keep trying the press the button on the device multiple times (but give it some time to try) but eventually I get everything connected.
