limitless led issue #6679

Make sure you are running the latest version of Home Assistant before reporting an issue.

You should only file an issue if you found a bug. Feature and enhancement requests should go in the Feature Requests section of our community forum:

Home Assistant release (hass --version):40.1

Python release (python3 --version):latest

Component/platform: limitlessled v6

Description of problem:

I have 3 different bulb types on my v6 bridge.. it uses 3 different remotes on the limitless app

I have rgbw on 1 and 4 I have rgbww on 1 and have a white only strip conroller on 1

I have the configuration.yaml as follows

light: platform: limitlessled bridges:

Expected: when I use the kitchen led white only (white 1) i expect it to turn on the strip controller but it turns on the white side of my rgbww lights.. its not contacting the right 'remote'

additionally the rgbww control panel in home assistant is kind of lacking. the limitelessled remote app has a color mode and a white mode with color temp. the control panel in HASS is really only controlling color and the color temp slider does not appear to do anything these rgbww bulbs have 2 modes color and a white mode with color temperature.

also lacking is the nightlight mode which is dimmer than the dimest setting that the remote app can set

thanks guys!!

I can assure you that the rgbww are working corectly, you can use the colorpicker to select a color with saturation, and if you select the white part of the colorpicker it wil automaticly switch to the white mode where you can change the color temp using the slider.

You are right about ik using the wrong remote for white and that nightmode isn't supported yet, but both of the issues are because of the library we are using. You should file a issue there and then we can take a look at supporting nightmode

so there is no way of using my led strip controllers at this time? or if I have 2 bridges can I move the strip controllers to the other bridge and deconflict ?

JWolvers commented 7 years ago

Well you can bind the strip to the rgbww controller using an different group like 3 and that just specify that your led strip is on group 3, as it usses the remote of rgbww for some reason. But keep the type white.That should work
