Tuya WiFi Smart Plug
To talk to the device, you need 3 things:
- The device IP address
- UUID / Device ID
- localKey
You can get this by sniffing the traffic the Android app makes with a SSL Capture app. When adding a new plug, some of the requests should contain something about a 'localKey'. One of the requests should also return all devices as well as their corresponding localKey from their server.
Self Hosted
These Tuya smart plugs are hard coded to these servers:
- mq.gw.tuyaus.com via MQTT
- a1.tuyaus.com via HTTP
To self host these services, you will need to hijack the DNS records to your self hosted service.
MQTT communication appears to be encoded or encrypted:

Most likely, these values are encrypted with the localKey that the device is set to use when first connected to the cloud.

The status output from the AWP04L smart plug looks like this. The plug has monitoring features and should return the voltage, amps, and watts.
{u'devId': u'02200194dc4f22137d7f', u'dps': {
u'1': True, outlet status
u'2': 0, timer, decrements by 5, in seconds
u'5': 56, watts (5.6)
u'4': 73, amps (0.073 amps)
u'6': 1198 volts
}}
{u'devId': u'02200194dc4f22135606', u'dps': {u'1': True, u'2': 0, u'5': 187, u'4': 176, u'6': 1190}}
I don't understand why amps * volts != watts...
You will probably still need to allow it to connect to the cloud once. If you don't let it completely connect, some features like voltage/wattage are disabled from the output (?). MQTT must be working, or else these features are disabled:
