Flux LED Component Issue

Configuration
1

I have 3 LED strips set up as a flux led components they show up in home assistant no problem however it takes toggling them twice to change state. It seems like the control and status is out of sync with one another. Has anyone else ran into this?

Yes happening to me as well sometimes.

Have you found any solution? It’s strange that it with the MagicHome app works flawlessly but with HA the problem you describe happens all the time.

I haven’t found a solution to this issue

It is possible that brightness is not adjusted at all? I am using it with Xiaomi Ceiling lights.

  • disable_brightness_adjust ( Optional ): If true, brightness will not be adjusted besides color temperature. Defaults to False.

    - platform: flux
  lights:
    - light.yeelight_lights_1
  name: Fluxer Ceiling Lights
  start_time: '7:00'
  stop_time: '23:00'
  start_colortemp: 4000
  sunset_colortemp: 3000
  stop_colortemp: 1900
  brightness: 200
  mode: mired
  transition: 30
  interval: 60

light.yeelight_lights_1:

at 18:00 I checked:

brightness: 199
color_temp: 332

at 21:00 I checked:

brightness: 199
color_temp: 370

In log I see:

It’s two different things, we are talking about the led controller brand Flux :slight_smile:

I have the same issue on 0.83.3 (still). My 2 Flux WiFi controllers are frequently stubborn and need a toggle or 5

I got an Error, too. I don’t know why.
i am using hass.io Home Assistant 0.84.6

Error when calling <function YeelightLight.set_colortemp at 0x7322c420>: {‘code’: -5000, ‘message’: ‘general error’}

I have a different Issue, Flux_LED doesn’t load now. It failed on

Not sure which of the Magic_light type controllers is failing on, I have some LED strip controllers and magic_lights as well.

Anyone else have this issue??
