Hey everyone! I’ve been diving into the world of Z-Wave devices lately and wanted to share a few things I’ve discovered. I’ve been on the hunt for a Z-Wave switch that can work over an existing switch, similar to the SYLVANIA Smart+ Dimming Switch I’ve been using. Does anyone have any recommendations or experiences with such devices? I’d love to hear if there are reliable alternatives out there!
Speaking of setup, I’ve been working on integrating my ISY2 system in the barn. It’s been a bit of a challenge since I don’t have easy access to my Mac in that location. I’m wondering if anyone has a good iPad app for setting up devices on ISY2. I’ve tried MobileLinc, but it doesn’t seem to handle device addition. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
On a lighter note, I’ve been experimenting with Adaptive Lighting in Home Assistant. It’s been a game-changer for my IKEA bulbs! I’ve configured different settings for dimmable white spectrum, extended color spectrum, and warm white bulbs. Here’s a quick example of what I’ve done:
yaml
- name: adapt_brightness_standard_color_temp
lights:- light.light_1
- light.light_2
min_brightness: 50
max_brightness: 100
min_color_temp: 2202
max_color_temp: 4000
sleep_brightness: 1
sleep_color_temp: 2202
transition: 45
interval: 90
initial_transition: 1
prefer_rgb_color: false
I’d love to hear how others are configuring their Adaptive Lighting setups. Any tips or tricks you’ve found useful would be awesome to share!
Thanks to everyone for the incredible support and knowledge sharing in this community. It’s truly inspiring to see how we can enhance our smart homes together!
