Hello everyone, I recently purchased a smart LED light bulb that offers three brightness settings. While it’s a fantastic addition to my home, I’ve encountered an interesting challenge that I’m eager to solve. When I first turn the bulb on, it starts at its brightest setting, and each subsequent on/off cycle reduces the brightness until it reaches the desired level. This behavior is a bit inconvenient, especially when I want the bulb to consistently start at a specific brightness level.
To address this, I decided to create a flow in my smart home system to automate the process. My idea was to have the system automatically cycle the bulb on and off a few times to reach the desired brightness. However, despite several attempts, the flow hasn’t worked as expected. I tried adding delays between each cycle, but that didn’t resolve the issue either.
I’m curious if anyone else has faced a similar challenge or has a workaround or solution. Perhaps there’s a different approach to setting the initial brightness without manually cycling through the settings each time. I’m also wondering if there are any specific configurations or settings within the smart home platform that could help achieve this automation more effectively.
This experience has been a great learning opportunity for me, and I’m excited to hear how others have tackled similar issues. Whether it’s through advanced flows, third-party integrations, or even hardware adjustments, I’m eager to explore all possible solutions. Let’s keep the conversation going and share our insights and experiences!
