KL130 turning on randomly within an hour
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I have a few KL130s and - except recently this one - they work fine.
But this one I noticed was on in the morning when it was supposed to be off as per my schedule.
So I fiddled with the schedule - no change, then after more trying to figure out what was going on, I removed it from KASA and factory reset it. It still shows the same behavior after setting it up again: randomly it turns on after somewhere from 20 min to an hour. I bought it in Nov 21 and have it installed for about a year. There should still be warranty on it - yes? Where can I claim a replacement if there isn't an easy fix? (The firmware should be the last, at least no update is offered in the app.)

Hello @gunterzielke
thank you for reaching out to the community and letting us know about the issue.
It's a good step to factory reset the bulb to ensure that the problem is caused by Schedule/Away mode/Smart action settings in the kasa APP.
If you use any third party apps like Google/ Alexa or other smart apps, please remove the device from the app temporarily to help isolate the issue.
If the same issue occurs, can you share the MAC address of the device with us via PM. To look into this, please help provide the exact time when problem occurs eg, Jan 23th, UTC+1 ， bedroom lamp turn on itself, thank you.
If the device is under warranty and diagnosed to be faulty, after troubleshooting, you can get a replacement under warranty period/

Hi, it's required to do some troubleshooting before RMA to confirm the bulb is faulty, and if the device is under warranty and confirmed is faulty after troubleshooting, you can get a replacement.
In this case, have you tried to factory reset the bulb and then reconfigure it? If not, please have a try.

The above step is to ensure the problem is not caused by Schedule/Away mode/Smart action settings in the Kasa APP. If you use any third-party apps like Google/ Alexa or other smart apps, please remove the device from the app temporarily to help narrow the issue.
If the same issue occurs, can you share the MAC address of the device with us via PM? To look into this, please help provide the exact time when the problem occurs, eg, March 29th, UTC+1, bedroom lamp turns on itself.
Best Regards
