Chinese zigbee switches (remote controls) - sometimes the first click does not work

Hi!

Maybe someone has encountered the problem I have with quite a few zigbee switches - all bought on aliexpress, from different sellers. They are detected by z2m as such:
https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/TS0001.html
https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/TS0041.html
https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/TS0043.html
https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/TS0044.html

I have two problems with them. First, less important - battery life is short, sometimes half a year, sometimes less (according to zigbee requirements they should last 2 years).

The second, is much more problematic. It often happens that the switch does not work the first time - only the second click is registered by z2m. On top of that they sometimes have “lag” and sometimes not.

The most frustrating situation is this:

  • I press the button, the light does not come on
  • I think to myself: ok, this is the first click that does not work
  • I press it a second time
  • the light comes on
  • I start walking up the stairs
  • …it turns out that the first one did work, but with lag, so the light goes out

Has anyone had this problem? Any idea how to fix it?

I should add that there are many different variants of the networking involved - some talk to the zigbee coordinator, some through routers.
