2. you can also config by ESPHome for your KC868-A64
3. can you draw a diagram on paper, how you connect KC868-A64 with KC868-E16v2 board.

1. Yes i used this version.
2. yes we know, it will be done later.
3. below

if you use two power supply, you should connect two power supply's GROUND together. why not use one big current power supply? such as DC12V 7A

Yes i think it will resolve this issue 

How much power I should delivery for a64 + 4 e16?

4x 16 x 0,5w =32 W 
A64 20 w
60 w? 

Why you propose 100w ? In our previous conversation I asked about power supply and you said that it’s ok to power it up like this. If one bigger will be better I will change .


but still it’s super slow and sometime not refreshing the status ?

Why you propose 150w ? In our previous conversation I asked about power supply and you said that it’s ok to power it up like this. If one bigger will be better I will change .

because of all relay ALL ON at the same time, instantaneous current is very high. But now just connect your two power supply GROUND together for testing firstly.
