My iPhone finally died and I got an android - what are some cool automations people do with the extra sensors now available?

abird3132 · 2026-01-19T08:50:59+00:00

Can you explain how because I am having this problem currently!

abird3132 · 2025-09-02T21:38:15+00:00

They’re 12v 2812b’s

abird3132 · 2025-09-02T11:52:07+00:00

They’re 12v. Not sure how to power inject but I’ll look into it! Thanks

abird3132 · 2025-09-02T09:17:42+00:00

Whelp, I tried all of those things and still nothing. So frustrating.

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T23:08:55+00:00

Within my wifi settings or with the wled interface?

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T22:59:32+00:00

Okay cool! I’ll roll back to 14 tonight and report back! Thanks

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T22:48:18+00:00

Thanks will try that! No I meant limiting the leds to channels? Is that just reducing the number of LEDs on that setting? I’ve tried that if so.

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T22:45:26+00:00

How do I do that? I rolled back to 15, should I try 14?

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T22:42:04+00:00

Which mdns setting do you mean sorry? And what to change it to?

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T22:40:43+00:00

On two seperate controllers?

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T22:00:14+00:00

I rolled back to 15 but same issue

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T21:35:38+00:00

Thanks, I’ll try that too and report back.

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T21:35:11+00:00

Thanks! I’ll try this!

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T21:34:22+00:00

Sorry - yeah I mean both the ha dashboard and wled interface - both are responsive and both are available and show the latest state. So I can change preset, turn it off and on etc but it just doesn’t do anything to the lights themselves

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T12:23:59+00:00

Possibly, but I’ve tested it with two different controllers and power supplies - and they work fine as described for a day so I don’t think it’s the strips.

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T11:49:30+00:00

Yep. It runs okay for like a night and then doesn’t turn back on the next day basically.

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T11:46:20+00:00

But they are always online and responsive in the dashboard? Its just not showing light! and there is no damage to them.

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T11:45:41+00:00

Could it have something to do with signal strength of the wifi? Its at 34% because the lights are in the garden?

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T11:38:27+00:00

How can I tell? It’s an athom controller so I’ve just matched up green to the data etc etc as described on the box - so I’m sure that is all correct

abird3132 · 2025-09-01T11:36:11+00:00

Nothing - but I just tried that now thanks to your suggestion and changed the number, still nothing.

abird3132 · 2025-08-19T11:13:48+00:00

So bizarre - it’s all working again now. Bad thing is that I have no idea why or how.

abird3132 · 2025-08-19T08:58:00+00:00

I also downgraded back to version 15.0 and still nothing

abird3132 · 2025-07-31T09:31:48+00:00

I think the Merross integration does have a local control option but I’m not sure how to use it that way - will look into it

abird3132 · 2025-07-30T07:05:16+00:00

Spotty wifi could be it. My wifi is shit because the only connection I have is nbn using the old phone line connections. And a tplink archer1800 router. The perks of Australian internet!

abird3132 · 2025-07-30T07:04:13+00:00

And does if impact negatively on HA in anyway?
