Hello. Noob Question. I have a “TRADFRI bulb E27 CWS 806lm” that I would like to automate a change in colour based on a value of another device (current [variable] energy tariff), but cannot see an entity that would enable me to do so.
Accessing the lamp from the device list, I can set the colour of the light to whatever (red, amber, green, blue etc) and the light can be manually (toggled) on/off to whatever colour I set it. However, in the automation UI I cannot see any actions that will let me set the target colour of the light. In my entity list, I only see one entry for the light bulb (and that is the bulb itself).
Can anyone point me to how I might automate a colour change without venturing into YAML (not yet ready to venture into that) ? I’ve tried scenes, but see no colour entities for the device.
I was hoping that if I can manually change the colour of the light via HA/gateway, that I could to some extent automate that functionality. I seem to be able to adjust the brightness of the lamp, but that’s not what I’m after,
The lamp is paired through IKEA’s Tradfri gateway. I also tried paring it to ZHA but wasn’t presented with the option to change the colour (just brightness).
All thoughts, suggestions and insights welcome by this noob.
