Model: HS100  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.26

On occasion, when controlling this small transformer, the HS100 goes offline and the lights on the HS100 go dark.

 

How can this happen using such a small transformer?

 

Tried multiple HS100s, same result.

@H_Smith Just found something similar a few weeks ago, I was powering a transformer rechargabling tool batteries.  It seems to crash the HS110 (in my case) completely dark as well, needing a power cycle to recover.  I suspect the transform is echoing back noise eventually knocking the tp link offline.  My solution was to stop using it for charging...

@MikeP That is interesting. I agree, some noise is being fed back tripping the micro and the outputs driving the LED lights on the HS unit are going dark.

I wonder if their is any sory of off the shelf AC line filter that could address this?

I need my application to work, related to a medical device that I need to cycle on and off at specific times.

 

Thanks.
