Can you control multiple zones? or just the one zone?
Now just the one zone.
I don’t have now more than 1 led controller FUT043 (RGB), to connect to the MiBoxer WL-Box1 gateway and to try to control multiple zones.
Hi Peter,
Did you ever get the WL-BOX1 to work in HA?

Hi Walter,
No I didn’t, so it has limited me to using those lights in a single room, where local control is sufficient. If I have time, I will try and work out the protocol by sniffing on the network traffic, but I’m still hoping someone smarter than me will figure it out.
This is my code in configuration.yaml and it works fine with three iBox2 controllers, which are paired with the MiLight app. That’s the older model, but i assume, not much different, because they all work with the same remote’s.
I hope this helps someone…

Thanks a lot for this write-up; it helped me to get it working!
Does anyone know how to recall the color white ?
I have set scenes for any colour but cant recall white
found this in my scenes.yaml:
name: Lamp Keuken Werkblad Werkstand
entities:
light.keuken_werkblad:
min_mireds: 154
max_mireds: 370
effect_list:
- colorloop
- night
- white
brightness: 255
color_temp: 313
friendly_name: Keuken werkblad
assumed_state: true
supported_features: 63
state: 'on'
That gives me strong, white light.
Anybody have trouble pairing their wall panel to the remote/app? I have my WL-Box1 gateway set up just fine, but I have the P3 wall panel. The manual says it should be pairable to any remote really. But I can’t get the panel to enter pairing mode no matter what I do. Anyone else have this issue?
Hi. For those who still have difficulties with the Miboxer Box 1.
I went for DIY device, which works perfect for me with all mi light devices:
This is a great solution, @Koen22!
I ordered an NRF24L01+ for €3, connected it to a D1 mini that I had still on stock, uploaded the precompiled firmware to it and … done! Works like a charm. Thanks!
@Koen22 Thanks a lot for the link!
Has anybody managed to get Multiple Zones working with Google Voice Assistant & Home Assistant?
Maybe the ‘sidoh/esp8266_milight_hub’ can be ‘partitioned’ so that it appears as multiple WL-Box 1 controllers?
@aleksey_z Thanks for the TUYA info! I use the Smart Life App so maybe that is an option also although it may not be on HA?
It’s a shame that scenes do not seem to work.
Have you tried creating a ‘Tap-To-Run’ instead of creating a automation ‘scene’?
(I have a few of the older MiLight Bulbs/Controllers but don’t want to buy more until I have a solid plan as I want them to work perfectly with Voice Assistant & HA. Maybe I will just have to start over & go down the Zigbee route or similar? )
(Also my Home Assistant isnt working atm so sorry for all of the blind questions & suggestions!)
Thanks!
DAN.
I have the T4 wall panel so once I get a WL-Box1 or ESP8266 I will let you know how I get on!
Has anybody used a Wall Panel with sidoh/esp8266_milight_hub or via Tuya?
I have 6 RGBWW Mi-Lights that work through the app from one wifi box. How do I control the color in Home Assistant? Can’t figure that part out!
This is what I have configured, but not sure any of this is correct:
# Mi-Light Lighting
light:
- platform: limitlessled
bridges:
- host: 192.168.1.15
groups:
- number: 1
type: rgbww

As far, a I know, I will carefully state, that something is wrong. The info I can remember from the time, I did my config, stated, that you can’t have 5 groups of rgbww lights on one controller. Max is 4. Same, like the phone app.
If that really is a problem, then your config will not work because of this.
I’m using scenes to change colors on my lights. And also this: GitHub - bokub/rgb-light-card: 💡 A Lovelace custom card for RGB lights
Works fine.
There is a thread about the configs here: Limitlessled - #25 by retrup
Great! works perfectly for me also
Thanks !!
Hi Everyone. I try to make limitless led to work with wl-box2 gateway and no success. Not sure if supported? Anyone share same experience?
Thanks!
I think the wl-box2 is Tuya only. If I do a port scan it’s only reporting 6668 as an open port. This is the port for Tuya Cloud.
The manual also stated to use the Tuya app to control the wl-box2 (MiBoxer).
I also tried using limitless led, but it does not work.
Using the Tuya integration in HA does work. But only for ‘All Zones’. I have four zones, but yet unable to control them separately.
[Edit]
Managed to create ‘scenes’ in the Tuya Smart App that activates a specific zone on the wl-box2 item. So I created four scenes. Than Refreshed the Tuya integration in Home Assistence to import the four scenes. When activating the HA scene it will turn on the lights from corresponding zone.
Thanks for info. One info if helps someone. I throw away all Tuya deices and wl-box2 was the last one. Have migrated to ESP project and work perfect trough UDP or MQTT.
