Hello all, I’m stuck with the following; i have a tuya zigbee smartplug from aliexpress, all works perfectly. Only now would I like to reset my total kWh usage. I have already removed the plug and pressed the button for a long time, but the value remains. Does anyone know how to set the data to 0?

I think that’s only possible when you temporary add it to a Tuya(-based) zigbee hub, using the Tuya smart phone app. After that, remove the plug from the hub again by, using ‘Disconnect and wipe data’. > ![Screenshot_20230209-200514_Tuya Smart](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/7/f7b226dd2c8a0221ad3e7647919bd42b62996ff7.jpeg) When you pair it with Homey again, the counter value should be zero ---

That’s a shame, I don’t have a tuya zigbee hub, I only have homey. That should also be possible via homey, you would say. Thank you for your response ---

Well, íf it is even possible, it has to be programmed into the app, and specially for every type of plug I guess; I don’t know how much work that involves. Remember, this (and all other) community app developer does all this work for free, in his/her spare time. Imho it would have made much more sense when Tuya provided for a reset pinhole of some kind on the devices → but that would make the devices ~~more expensive~~ less cheaper. And let’s be honest, one can’t have it all with the cheaper kind of gear. JFYI, a few months back, Lidl sold a (Tuya based) zigbee hub for €12,95 so, problem can be solved for the price of just one additional plug… And that’s the advantage of cheaper priced gear! ---

Oh no. I’m not complaining, I’m happy that people put the time into making these apps. But I wondered if it was possible, and that is possibly just a separate hub, I know what to do.
