Hi Kincony
I've just installed Tasmota on A16 and I think this setup will have problems with Homeassistant...For input changes, they only update throught status messages, not event driven. Through serial port debug you can see the input changing however the MQTT messages are JSON which does not update the TASMOTA plugin......Do you see the same issue ?

if you use KC868-A16 integrate with home assistant, why not use ESPHome? it's very easy, powerful and flexible.

Yes I have installed ESPhome on the A16 however I just wanted to post this so people know the issue. The expansion inputs only update in the time set for logging and not instantaneous as this is a JSON output....

So is the A32 working with Home assistant?
Every input is driving the output?
Input 1 switch on output 1 (relay 1)?

And it's working with Tasmota?
Can have the 32 outputs through tasmota, mqtt το Home assistant? Like the KC868-H32b?

A32 support tasmota, but tasmota support input+output total=32 channel , such as you can use 32 channel for output, or 16 channel input and 16 channel output. just input ports + output ports <=MAX 32 channels.
