Does anyone know how to get this bulb to pair with home assistant? I’ve toggled the light on and off 5+ times until it fades in and out a few times but home assistant’s ZHA still never recognizes it.
I have them working with HA over Zigbee but through Zigbee2MQTT. They sadly weren’t supported by default and required an external connector script off Github to get working.
Did you install the Zigbee firmware first via the Aqara app?
The GitHub has this closed as “not planned”.
Looks like some of the bulb works with Z2M but there is no ZHA support.
Stumbled onto this looking for the same answer. T2s are not well in thread mode.
I think they fixed it. For me all I had to do was to download the Aqara App and locate the bulb via Bluetooth. The setup then began which at one point asked me what kind of connection i want to do: Matter or Zigbee. When I chose Zigbee it started updating for couple minutes and then when I started looking for devices in Z2M it popped up. Everything works now in HA.
