I am using a A8 with my drapes. I have NO inputs and just using the built in relays to trigger dry contacts. I am running ESPHome. The A8 I have doesn't have enough relays so I have two units side by side. The are connected to a POE switch and each one is being powered via a POE to 12v splitter. One of the units keeps dying. It will not be pingable. I have disabled the web server in esphome and I have disabled Bluetooth. I reflashed several times. After about 12 hours it will just stop responding. I replaced it with another unit yesterday and today it continues to work with the same firmware. I believe this device is bad - but no idea how to debug and not interested I have too many other things going on. This unit is believed to be bad.
