it appears correctly in my set up and I can manually turn it on and with the box that appears, I can change its color and brightness / temperature.
I am trying to set up a automation which will turn on the globe at full brightness and white color during the day, and a dull red at night when a motion detector is trigger.
I have the automation set up, and can get the motion detector to turn on the LED. However when I try to add either color information or brightness to the globe as a scene, the scene wont activate
So I have this scene that works
- name: Lamp_on
entities:
light.aeotec_zw098_led_bulb_level_8_0:
state: on
but if I add brightness or color_rgb values under state the scene breaks
Partly because I am a Home Assistant noob, and am blatantly copying other peoples configurations. Most of the examples listed in the cookbook use their automation to trigger either scenes or scripts.
I have my automation triggering a script, so that the script can trigger a second script to turn the light off after 10 minutes.
When you say to put it straight in the automation with a data template do you mean something like
Sorry as this is a bit off topic, but how are you finding the Aeotec LED globe? I’ve purchased 13 LIFX lights lately and I totally DESPISE them due to their INCREDIBLE unreliability.
I even dropped a lot of money on a UniFi AC Pro wfi access point in the hopes that it would help but it’s clear that the firmware/hardware in the LIFX bulbs is the problem and not the wifi.
I am now considering buying a bunch of Aeotec z-wave lights in the hopes that they will actually function as intended and would love to hear your opinion of them.

I would really love to recommend these globes as they otherwise work really well, but not being able to change their color via a script / scene / automation is really limiting their utility
