Hey everyone, I just wanted to share something I discovered recently that I thought might be helpful for others! ![]()
I’ve been using the Govee Permanent Outdoor Lights Pro for a while now, and I recently noticed that they had a firmware update available. After updating, the colors and brightness levels seemed even better than before! If you haven’t checked for updates yet, I’d highly recommend it. You can find it under your profile page, then click on firmware update. Simple and effective! ![]()
Now, switching gears a bit, I’ve been working on setting up my Z-Wave network and ran into an interesting challenge. I have a few Linear Z-Wave switches, and I noticed that the ISY wasn’t automatically polling them like my Vera used to. This was a bit frustrating because I rely on these switches for motion-activated lighting in my kitchen. After some research, I found that creating a simple program to query the devices every 60 seconds was the solution. It’s a bit of a workaround, but it’s working perfectly for me now!
I’d love to hear if anyone else has tips or tricks for optimizing Z-Wave device polling or any other smart home setups. Let’s keep the conversation going! ![]()
