I will take a look into this tonight, as it may be more practical to convert into the xy color space insterad of hsl values.

Incidentally, black is a meaningless color when it comes to hue bulbs, they cannot turn black, so white might make some sense there...

Can you try the latest version 0.2.5 of the module and see if that gives you better results?

In my testing it appears to give closer matches to the extremes and now uses a conversion from RGB to XY co-ordinates as documented for the iOS library, so should be about a good as I can get for now.
