Saturday
Model: LB120  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.8.11

I've been using multiple LB120's with Alexa and I've noticed in the last couple weeks that they stopped communicating with Alexa. I have migrated from Kasa to Tapo and they all show up and function as they should within Tapo. I had removed them from Kasa and unlinked Kasa from Alexa months ago. I've disabled and reenabled the skill, linked and unlinked Tapo and Alexa. 

 

I know I had some issue before I unlinked Kasa, and then everything was smooth. This just all appears to have started within the last couple weeks. When I try to re-add or re-discover, Alexa comes up with nothing. 

 

Help?!

Did you link Kasa skill with Alexa in the Tapo app? Although you're using the Tapo app now, the smart bulb is still a Kasa device, if you want to control it with Alexa, you will still need to link Kasa with Alexa. How to Connect Tapo and Kasa Devices to Amazon Alexa: Two Setup Methods

I did not re-link with Kasa because all of my other Kasa devices (plugs, switches) are still appearing fine. I was afraid they would duplicate? I have also removed the devices from the Kasa app and they are strictly controlled thru tapo. Would that matter before re-linking Kasa with Alexa? It's strange because I had unlinked Kasa from Alexa months ago and everything worked fine.

 

I'll await your response that they will not duplicate or otherwise cause further issues. Thanks!
