I'll have a PR for this and another lamp-related issue in a bit.

Should be quick...you can do:

switchService.updateCharacteristic(this.hap.Characteristic.On, (this.accessory.context.lampState as boolean) === true);

I pushed an update to GH...if you want to give it a test, I'll get it published along with a couple of other minor things later today. Good to hear from you @jarz 😄
