"Socket had a problem and will reconnect" after RGBTW lamp is turned off, then back on

Hey, I have a problem with my RGBTW lamp after I turn it off using the power switch (like you would with a normal lamp). I’m using 1.5.0-rc.12. When I turn the lamp off, obviously tuya-lan loses connection and tries to reconnect and therefor spams the homebridge.log with [TuyaAccessory] Socket had a problem and will reconnect to Küche Deckenlampe (Error: ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT) First question: is there a way to disable the retries after a certain time or number of tries and wait for the next UDP packet from the lamp instead?

Now my second problem is that if I turn the lamp back on using the power switch, it seems like tuya-lan tries to reconnect to the lamp, but fails for some reason. The lamp is powered on and homebridge just started, so all is working normally:

[TuyaAccessory] Sending Küche Deckenlampe {"22":1000}
[TuyaAccessory] Sending Küche Deckenlampe {"20":true}
[TuyaAccessory] Heard back from Küche Deckenlampe with command 8
[TuyaAccessory] Heard back from Küche Deckenlampe with command 8

Now I turn the lamp off using the switch.

[TuyaAccessory] Socket had a problem and will reconnect to Küche Deckenlampe (Error: ERR_PING_TIMED_OUT)
[TuyaAccessory] Socket had a problem and will reconnect to Küche Deckenlampe (EHOSTUNREACH)

[TuyaAccessory] Socket had a problem and will reconnect to Küche Deckenlampe (EHOSTUNREACH)
[TuyaAccessory] Socket had a problem and will reconnect to Küche Deckenlampe (Error: ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT)

Again, this seems normal to me, but this would soon turn into these error messages filling up the log file. Now I turn the lamp back on and would expect it to become available again, but various errors occur:

and so on… If needed, I can provide the whole log file. If I restart homebridge, everything is working fine again and the lamp is working properly.

Thanks for your help!

I was able to somewhat solve this issue by adding

"pingTimeout": 2147483,
"connectTimeout": 2147483,

to the device config. Now when I turn the lamp off, I still get [TuyaAccessory] Socket had a problem and will reconnect to Küche Deckenlampe (EHOSTUNREACH) every few seconds, but it recovers fine when I turn the power back on. 2147483000 ms should last me approx. 25 days, which should be plenty, so I‘m closing this issue for now.

Thank you. You solved one of my big problem

If I remember correctly, I googled the light’s name and found the settings in one of the issues on this repo. I don’t think there is a guide and as long as you don’t have access to the schematics of your lamp or someone else has found out the correct pins, you might have to find it out yourself by trial and error…
