Colors in the app do not map to light colors #19

I use E27 HUE lightbulbs with color. In the app on trigger I blink the lights. I've set it to blue, but the output is purple. Green does seem to work. I've tried a few other colors with various different color outputs.

Maybe this is a hue model/generation issue?

Maybe this is a hue model/generation issue?

Possibly. I may have tested on older generation bulbs. The colors are based on a number (the hue) and I tried to get them as close as I could, but I can test on a larger variety of bulbs/strips to try and find representations that work best across all lights.

My color bulbs all date from around 2015-2016 which may explain it. Maybe the v2 api has more granular/uniform controls.

@SnippetSpace in version 1.4.0 I moved from using hue/saturation to identify color to using the X/Y coordinates of CIE color space. I theory this should line up more with how the bulbs are calibrated. I don't know if you've been keeping your app up to date, but do you know if this issue was fixed in that version?

I'd like to close this case if it was, or leave it open if it hasn't and I can still look into it in the future. Thanks.
