Hi everyone,
I have made a simple dimmable LED lamp and want to controle it with homekit.
Im almost there. Turning light ON by setting brightness works great.
Ony issue that i have is when i want to turn the light OFF (by setting the brightness to 0%) the slider in Lovelace UI only go back to 1%. and so never give the MQTT command “OFF”.
When listening to this mqtt topic and setting the slider to 1% i see on the seriel monitor (esp32) massage arriving with brightness set to 2? and command_topic - “ON”
If it is possible i want to be able to set the slider to 0% and so the command_topic to “OFF”
Hope someone can help me. Im on it now for hours and can’t figure it out.
This is the .yaml piece:
light:
- platform: mqtt
name: "Warm licht"
state_topic: "slaapkamer/licht/state"
command_topic: "slaapkamer/licht"
brightness_state_topic: 'slaapkamer/warmlicht/brightness'
brightness_command_topic: 'slaapkamer/warmlicht/brightness'
#qos: 0
payload_on: "ON"
payload_off: "OFF"
optimistic: true
#retain: false
