I think this is attributed to trying to set/get the level of a lighting device that is not online (ie the main switch is off). Yes, I know, we leave smart lights powered .... Lots of switches, no great solutions.

I've removed the 3 possible lights from MakerAPI and will continue to watch logs to see if this persists

In the event its relevant, what was shared were the HE Groups and the HUE Groups of lighting that were offline. I have not tried if the actual device(s) were shared if MakerAPI tossed the same issue
