Trying to get my head around setting the default state for some of my lighting
It seems that HA, if rebooted, or if the lights lose power then the state is lost, then if i go to turn them on, they might come on but perhaps a colour and 10% brightness
I want to set it to always be white, 100% as the default
the lights are limitlessled lights
At the bottom of that link it has some info about the state, but im just not sure how to get it working
I don’t see any setting in the documentation that allows you to set a default brightness when the bulbs lose power. I assume that they will always turn on to the last state they were in. Can you change something in the milight app?
You can solve the HA rebooting issue by creating an automation that triggers on HA starting up and then a script to set various lights to their proper state.
trigger:
- event: start
platform: homeassistant
As for setting the limitlessled lights, in your HA startup, I would create a script to check the second power button state of the light and turn it on/off as needed.
Because LimitlessLED lights may have an obsolete state, Home Assistant shows the power switch as two buttons rather than a toggle. This ensures that the power can be set with a single click even if the assumed state is wrong. You can change to use the power toggle with Customize.
