| Etekcity Apex HR EFS-A591S-KUS | Works Local | Support added in 2026Saved copyAdds support for the EFS-A591S-KUS, backed by `etekcity_esf551_ble==0.6.0` (now on PyPI). It uses your reorganized 0.6.0 tree; `EFSA591SScale` is imported the same way as the other models. ## What it adds - Model detection for the EFS-A591S (`const`, `config_flow`). - Weight, impedance, and per-user body composition (the model is in `BODY_METRICS_MODELS`). - Heart rate: a per-user `bpm` sensor gated by `HEART_RATE_MODELS`. The scale reports it in the result frame; 0 means not measured. - Display unit: the existing kg/lb option is passed to `EFSA591SScale`, which sends it to the scale on … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | PR #33 · 2026-07 | |

| Etekcity ESF-37 scale | Requested Local | Weight-only support pending in library; manual picker entry proposedSaved copyCompanion to ronnnnnnnnnnnnn/etekcity_esf551_ble#14, which adds ESF-37 (weight-only) support to the underlying library. Adds ESF-37 to the manual model picker's label dict. No advertisement signature was captured for this model, so it isn't auto-discovered, manual picker only, same path as any other unclassified device. Since the scale needs no onboard user-profile selection (see the library PR for why), person disambiguation for ESF-37 users works the same as any other model here: this integration's own weight-history matching, not anything scale-side. Requirements pin isn't bumped, … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | PR #42 · 2026-08 |
