Here are my Lamp Socket Settings Motion is detected in the dark Timer → keep lamps on for 5 min [IMG_CB54BC6A93B6-1] I have no other schedules enabled and no other device triggers enabled. Here’s the behavior I am expecting… If it’s dark (ie if the time is after sunset and before sunrise) and the camera detects motion, then the lamp socket should turn on for 5 min, and then turn off. However… It’s 11AM, the sun is out, and my socket is still on from last night. When I look at my motion events from last night, there aren’t many. So I don’t think the motion detection is too sensitive. But even if it was too sensitive, and the lamp was on all night, shouldn’t the lamp socket have turned off at sunrise? What is the expected behavior? I am running the latest firmware on both my socket (0.9.0.23) and my cam-v3 (4.36.9.139) I should note that I’ve been having issues with the lamp socket rules since I first installed it ~5 months ago, but I’ve never taken the time to write them up because I was assuming they would get patched by a firmware update.

I had the exact same problem. Light was on for 2 days, day and night. I also had activate with motion. I noticed a few times the light icon would be on in the app, i would manual turned it off, thought was just motion, it wasn’t, The tiny little icon could not have been harder to spot. After pulling power to it, operating normal again, been about week or so. Right now, not ONE Wyze product i own working without problems, Extremely frustrating.

I’m having this problem lately with my lamp sockets too. They used to work well, but lately they won’t ever turn off. I mentioned it in last week’s fix it Friday event, but I wasn’t sure if others were experiencing this too or if it was just me because I hadn’t seen anyone else report this before now. I think it turns on okay, but the timer stopped working so it never turns back off unless I do it manually.

I am having this issue as well. The light turns on but never goes off.

I have this issue from time to time as well. [image] Wyze Lamp Socket Stuck On (Bug) Cameras Hey, this is the second time this week that I have had this happen, so probably not a fluke: I have my socket set to turn on when motion is detected in the dark and no rules or anything else. It works great but occasionally I have noticed that it’s still on well into the morning. I can simply turn it off in the app and all goes back to normal but just thought id let you guys know. Thanks!

If more than one customer having same issue, it’s not a bug; it’s feature :slight_smile:

Hi, thanks for the info. If you still have this issue today on daytime. Could you please submit logs and I will connect with dev team to look at this.

Here is a log from me: Log 655727 My Lamp socket timer has not worked in many weeks, maybe months. I have tried different intervals on the timer (1, 3, 5 min). I have reset the camera and the sockets and even hard reset them by cutting the power off and back on. I can manually control the sockets still and rules tied to other devices will also turn them off (ie: when contact sensor closes → turn off lamp sockets), but they will never turn off automatically anymore with their auto settings. They used to, but it hasn’t worked in many weeks now. Seems like I am not the only one. I hope the log helps. :+1:

Mine seems to happen for 1 day occasionally. Used to be more often, not as much anymore. I can get a log if you want, but currently it’s working fine

Yes, you are not the only one. I have the same issue. Turns on when triggered by the camera. Suppose to turn off 3 minutes later but now it just stays on. Worked for a while when I got it.

Will you grab a log for Wyze Desmond too? Open the cam, Go into the cam settings (the gear icon on the top right) Then click on Wyze Support → submit a Log → Lamp Socket Issues and then submit it and post the reference number in here so he can forward it on to the developers and hopefully get this fixed for us. :slight_smile:
