Finally, all the Sonoff actuators previously added to your eWeLink account will be integrated into Home Assistant.

The only difference with this integration is that your actuators will be integrated not as devices but as entities, and because of that, your actuators will be limited to just working as switches in Home Assistant. I was able to integrate six more actuators using device manufacturer-based integration, as shown in Figure 6.7.

As previously mentioned, to implement this integration, you have to have your devices configured in the eWelink application beforehand. If you have not yet done that, go to the website at https://ewelink.cc/ to verify how to install eWelink.

In the next subsection, we will add more sensors to your home using another device manufacturer-based integration.
