Hey everyone, I’ve been experimenting with smart lighting to create a more comfortable home environment. One thing I’ve noticed is that when using a dumb switch with my CREE Z-Wave smart bulb, the bulb always turns on at full brightness, which can be a bit overwhelming, especially in the evenings. I’d love to find a way to set a predetermined dimmer value so that the bulb comes on at a softer level when the switch is toggled.
I’ve done some research and tried a few apps, but nothing seems to work quite the way I need it to. If anyone has experience with this or knows of a reliable app or workaround, I’d really appreciate the insight! It would be amazing to have this functionality without having to replace the switch entirely.
On a lighter note, I’ve been impressed with how much customization is possible with smart lighting. It’s been fun exploring different settings and seeing how they can enhance the ambiance of my space. I’m definitely looking forward to discovering more tips and tricks from the community!
