Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.1

I've had this KS225 dimmer for a while now, but I've recently needed to remove it from my Apple home to re-setup since it wasn't responding for a long time for no reason. But now I can't connect or setup the dimmer at all. The Apple Home setup would connect, setup, and be stuck on "Adding to home", before failing with an error "Failed to pair". This is extremely frustrating since it has worked for so long before, and I've tried restarting my router, restarting my switch (both hard reset with 10s press on reset button and disconnecting it from power completely), restarting my homepod, phone, and everything. Is there anything I can do, or is this dimmer just broken?
