All my athom esp8285 devices won't boot after a grid outage. They are units without relay and with. When the grid goes out and the power comes back, they appear to lock up. Not connected to wifi, don't engage the relay if set to be always on etc. Don't respond to button presses.

Seems to be a design flaw in the esp8285 range, as I also have athom esp32 devices and these all start correctly after the grid outage. The strange thing is, if I turn the device off and on again, it will boot happily until the next grid outage. So really hard to troubleshoot. Anyone aware of this issue or a fix? I've tried the API reboot, Wifi Reboot settings. But as the unit doesn't appear to boot, these don't kick in. As I said the device appears dead until you unplug it and plug it back in again.

Every month/2 months all my athom.tech devices disconnect all together. I have a presence sensor/plugs/garage door opener, all esphome devices. After this happens they keep connecting and disconnecting every few minutes.. Resetting doesnt seem to work all to well. And for some reason they are able to connect again. All my other EspHome devices (other brand or self created) don't have this issue, so I am not 100% where the issue is.. I tried updating firmware but issue stays same so I can't check the devices firmware version after updating. please help.

I'm looking for devices with e.g. ESP32-C5/C6 or H2 that can be flashed with ESPHome. Wifi is not needed. Device types could include Smart Plugs, Wall Switches, Smart Light Bulbs, and other types that are usually connected to mains power.

I wonder why I can't find these devices? Not even a single of them. There are tons of ESP32-C3, ESP8266 and the like…

Maybe a hint to Athom to include C5/C6 in their new designs.
