Switchbot firmware modification

Is there a way to modify the firmware on a SwitchBot PCB? I would like to make a smart device using the SwitchBot motor but I need the motor to rotate longer than it currently does.

Hi @Ledrac573 and welcome to our forum.

Theoretically yes, you can modify the firmware but you would probably need a special programmer for this (I don’t know which chip it is using but you probably need a special device to download code on the board) and you would need source code which you can modify and download.

I would say this is not easy if manufacturer does not provide this info to you.

Otherwise, if you only want to use the motor and have your own PCB with chip, logic etc, then you would write your own firmware I guess.
