Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.1.9

Tapo Smart Bulb keeps resetting itself. It happened 3 times already. It will suddenly turn on and blink in yellow color, then it will go offline in the Tapo app. It won't be detectable even after turning off/on the switch. So I would need to delete it and add it again in the app.

I encountered this problem 2 consecutive days.

 

I have the latest firmware. Is this a faulty bulb? What's going on?

Does the light bulb blink once or keep blinking non-stop? Do you have a video?

 

Try to factory reset the smart bulb, see if that helps. How to reset the Tapo smart bulb

  @Wayne-TP it'll blink non-stop and will stop after a while. Then it'll go offline and I would need to delete and add it again in the app.

Hong long have you been using this smart bulb? Please try to factory reset this device and monitor whether the problem will reoccurs.

 @Wayne-TP tried the soft reset and factory reset but it didn't turn on at all after switching it on/off 3 times or 5 times.

 

I've had this for around 2 months. It happened again. It turned on and off while it was off. It did that for 2 times. Checked the app and it went offline again. Tried resetting, as mentioned, didn't work.

Smart bulb should be in the ON state before the reset, then perform OFF&ON operation for 5 times.
