About this driver

Two-way RTI control for your TP-Link Tapo devices — 100% local over your LAN (KLAP-encrypted), no cloud round-trip and no Home Assistant box. One instance holds your Tapo setup: smart plugs, energy-monitoring plugs (live power + energy), colour and tunable-white bulbs, light strips, wall switches and dimmers, multi-outlet power strips (P300 / P304 / P306 / P316) with independent per-outlet control, and the H100 hub with its motion, contact, water-leak, temperature/humidity, and button sensors. A one-click Discover action finds every Wi-Fi device on the LAN and drops each in as its own named source; the H100's RF sensors and the power strip's outlets bind by name (type each one's Tapo-app name) and fire per-device events — motion, open/closed, leak, temperature/humidity, button single/double/long press, low battery — so you build automations from real-world activity. Full state feedback on everything, edge-detected events, a self-healing local connection, and low processor load even across a big install. Need a Tapo device the driver doesn't cover yet? Just reach out (support@customcontroldrivers.com) and we'll get it added — we prioritize by demand. Free 120-minute trial, so you can confirm your own devices before you buy. One license per processor.

How licensing works

  1. Download the driver (free — button on the right), install it in Integration Designer, and load to your processor. It runs unlocked for a total of 120 minutes of run time for compatibility testing. The clock is cumulative, so it does not reset when the processor reboots.
  2. Buy a license here, then sign in and enter your processor's MAC address on your account page. We issue a signed license key bound to that MAC.
  3. Paste the key into the driver's configuration. The trial wall goes away and the driver runs unlocked indefinitely.
