Hey everyone, I came across an interesting issue with my Shelly 1 Mini Gen3 and wanted to share my experience in case others are facing the same problem. I’ve been using Shelly devices for a while now, and they’ve been a reliable addition to my smart home setup. However, one particular device was giving me some trouble—it simply wouldn’t turn off. The setup was straightforward: I had it scheduled to turn on 15 minutes after sunset, which worked perfectly. The issue arose when it was supposed to turn off at midnight. No matter what I tried, it stayed on. I was a bit puzzled since the device was working as expected in every other aspect. I decided to dive into the problem and see if I could figure it out. First, I checked the device’s settings within the Shelly app. Everything seemed to be in order—the schedule was correctly set, and there were no obvious errors. I then looked into the automation rules I had created within my home automation system. I realized that while the schedule was correctly set, the automation rule responsible for turning the device off at midnight wasn’t triggering as expected. After some trial and error, I discovered that the issue was related to how the automation was structured. I had set up a time-based trigger, but it wasn’t accounting for daylight saving time changes, which had occurred recently. Once I adjusted the automation to account for this, the device began turning off as scheduled. I also reached out to the Shelly community on their forums and found that others had encountered similar issues. It turns out that the device’s firmware needed an update to ensure seamless operation with the latest automation integrations. Updating the firmware was a straightforward process through the Shelly app, and it resolved any lingering issues I was experiencing. Reflecting on this experience, I realized how important it is to regularly check and update firmware, even for devices that seem to be working fine. It’s also a good reminder to review automation rules, especially around times when daylight saving time changes occur. I’m happy to say that my Shelly 1 Mini Gen3 is now functioning perfectly, and I’ve learned a valuable lesson about maintaining my smart home setup. If anyone else is experiencing similar issues, I’d be happy to help troubleshoot or share additional tips. Happy smart home tinkering! ![]()
