Home Assistant TP-LINK Smart Home integration fails for RV-30 Max vacuum
Official TP-Link Smart Home integration for Tapo devices in Home Assistant, no longer connects & generates this error in the log:
Robot Vacuum RV30 Max Plus
Failed setup, will retry: Unable to communicate with the device connect: ('Device connection error: 192.168.68.219: Cannot connect to host 192.168.68.219:4433 ssl:<ssl.SSLContext object at 0x7f78a08050> [[SSL: SSLV3_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE] ssl/tls alert handshake failure (_ssl.c:1032)]', ClientConnectorSSLError(ConnectionKey(host='192.168.68.219', port=4433, is_ssl=True, ssl=<ssl.SSLContext object at 0x7f78a08050>, proxy=None, proxy_auth=None, proxy_headers_hash=None), SSLError(1, '[SSL: SSLV3_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE] ssl/tls alert handshake failure (_ssl.c:1032)')))

If you're trying to manage smart devices through API, this is NOT an officially supported method, as Tapo API is not open to the public. Product performance and stability cannot be guaranteed on the unsupported platforms, and we do not offer support for this kind of usage.
The good news is that the RV30 Max Plus supports the Matter protocol, you can try to link the device to Home Assistant through Matter. Here is the configuration guide for the major Matter platforms, FYI. How to set up Matter device with Alexa, Google, Apple or SmartThings
The vacuum's Matter code can be found in the device settings page in the Tapo app. Where can I find the Matter setup code number for my TP-Link devices?

The issue is that the *official* TP-Link integration in Home Assistant *WAS* working perfectly well for the RV30 Max Plus, until AFTER the robot vacuum was upgraded to Firmware version 1.3.0 Build 250909 Rel. 135514, Sub version 0.0.10.1880-1.4.82
So I would suggest that whatever your Developers broke with that firmware upgrade, that you un-break it & release a fixed firmware version ASAP.

Home Assistant has not been a third-party that TP-Link officially supports. As mentioned, Tapo API is not open to the public, the resources you found online are not provided by TP-Link official.

@Wayne-TP Well, if you want people to keep buying TP-Link products, then I suggest you start officially supporting it & join the 'Works with Home Assistant' Foundation:
