Deleted a Hue light (I think), how do I get it back?

Hi,

While messing around with my entities, I think I’ve deleted one of my Hue light that was auto discovered. Is there a simple way to get it back? I’m afraid of doing something that will duplicate all my other Hue lights and will have to clean that new mess.

Thanks

If you just deleted it from HA it will comeback after a restart. I do bit all the time when want to rename them or I ended up with a similar name I already had with a _2

Thanks for the quick reply. I did a few restarts since then and it didn’t come back. I checked and it’s not disabled either.

So it still in your Hue app

You know what, no, it’s NOT. I just did a scan for new Hue lights and it didn’t discover it. I guess I’ll have to search the web on why that light is gone from my Hue bridge… I think it happened when I paired HA to the Hue bridge (that’s the only thing I changed on the Hue side).

You know what, that light is NOT EVEN A HUE LIGHT! OMG, major brain fart on my part :laughing:

Okay I’ll bite
What is it ?

It’s just a Smartlife switch. I haven’t finished converting all my Smartlife switches to Tasmota yet. For some reason I thought the bulb controlled by the switch was a Hue LED bulb. It’s a plain CREE LED bulb. Stupid me.

Now I’m having fun customizing my floor plan Picture Element to include my Sinope Thermostats. I found an integration for the Sinope GT130 Zigbee hub on github (thanks Claude!) and I’m trying different methods. Tasmota is taking a back-burner for now :slight_smile:

I do have Hue errors in my log file at startup so you might see a post about that before the day is over though :slight_smile:
