Sonoff Presence Detection: Faster Flows with Logic card and Tags?

I have a Sonoff presence detector that’s working well. The card provided by the Sonoff app can detect light levels (e.g., bright or dark) and trigger actions accordingly.

In my testing, I’ve noticed that when I use the Logic card with a Tag in my flows, they seem to execute faster than when using the card directly provided by the app. time is display on the debug of the card.


Does anyone know why this difference in performance might be happening?

I’m not sure how often you tested this and if it’s consistent, but the only possible reason I see is that the Sonoff app uses an unnecessary await to get the capability value which may take a bit more time in comparison with the Logic card’s (likely) synchronous execution.
