IKEA Tradfri colour bulbs dim with every interval #248

Open jgkeightley opened 3 weeks ago

jgkeightley commented 3 weeks ago

I can't find anything in the logs, but through my testing I have found that this custom component works perfectly with my IKEA Tradfri bulbs which are temperature control only. On my bulbs which offer colour control, whenever the lights are updated, the bulbs dim all the way, then slowly increase brightness to the desired value. I think this is a hardware limitation, but does anyone know why this occurs and if there is a fix? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I have changed the interval value to confirm. I have set it to 30s, and every 30s, the dimming occurs.

I have my colour capable ikea bulbs (LED1924G9) under the lights_xy section in the configuration. and they don't show the behaviour you described.

I have 4 types of bulb. Only the bulbs which offer colour changing have issues. IKEA Tradfri: TRADFRIbulbE27WSglobeopal1055lm - no issues. IKEA Tradfri: TRADFRI bulb GU10 CWS 345lm - cycles. IKEA Trafdri: TRADFRI bulb E27 CWS 806lm - cycles Philips Hue: LTW001 - no issues

I have tried changing from lights_ct to lights_xy and it did not fix the issue.
