I have a few of these bulbs that cannot be flashed, while some other devices are flashed with Tasmota.
With the Tuya integration they work quite well - and even better with recent HA versions.
I found the thread on how to customize them and change the supported features, which makes the color picker available.
Controlling color and brightness with an automation/scene seems to respond in a strange way, but I guess that’s because commands have to be sent back and forth to some cloud based server.
Is there a way to make this more responsive, so that you get the color/brightness right away?
How do I know what color codes to use for these specific bulbs?
Thanks for these links, will have a look at it.
So, NodeRed… have seen this quite a lot, have no clue how to start with it but then maybe, it’s time to dig in
What I meant with these color codes: I’ve seen ‘xy_color’ and ‘color_temp’ and maybe even some other ways to define color settings, so it’s not clear to me.
XY, HS and RGB are all just different methods of specifying a colour. Choose the method that suits you ( I like rgb as I have a basic understanding of mixing red, green and blue to get the colour I want).
Colour temp and kelvin are methods of specifying the ‘hue’ of white light, from a cold blue to a warm yellow. I’m familiar with colour temperature in Kelvin from photography so that is my preference.
