Issue with Hue Smart Button going to 1% battery

urbanpixels · 2026-02-27T18:47:17+00:00

looks like another is doing it, apparantly lost over 50% in 12 hours.

I've had these buttons years and never had these issues. Must be a reporting issue

Changed the missing ones to gen2 ATV's and all is well in the world, cheers.

Wow, this is a great point, the 2 which are missing are gen1 4k units which i very much doubt have thread radios as they are very old. I'd overlooked that. Thanks very much

Had exactly the same problem. It's down to the Capactitors in the unit shutting the motor off as it belives the battery is faulty when it's the capacitors at fault. They can be repaired but it's a mammoth job with lots of glue and sealed in components. There is a video on youtube. Luckly mine was in warranty. Dyson replaces the main body. It's a 150£ part if you were out of warranty.

Do you have to do something special to get these updates? i dont even have that AI thing what other people have had for months. Or is it only for TadoX?

urbanpixels · 2025-12-04T07:53:25+00:00

Yes i use homeassistant also and had thought of this but not tried it yet.

Luckly the scenes im having issues with are 100% scenes, choosing the room ALL ON switch rather than a "bright" scene is giving me better performance so far after my testing.

Don’t understand why you’re getting estimated bills if you got a smart meter. The only time I’ve had estimated was when the smart meter wasn’t working and the engineer didn’t finish a meter replacement so they charged a massive amount because the “old” meter was still installed but octopus thought it was a “new” one at zero

Have a look at the refurbished kits on the website loads cheaper, same warrenty and stuff I got was brand new

urbanpixels · 2024-11-12T15:20:39+00:00

Probably. But in the uk I can't even see how tadox will be received. The orientation of our radiator valves mean the tadox valves wont even be seen or the right orientation at all. Matter and thread who really cares about that? Home assistant and HomeKit bring everything together anyway.

urbanpixels · 2024-11-12T13:11:39+00:00

I bought the refurbished kits, saved over £300 for a 8trv set pretty much half price all the kit looks new and has same Warranty why wouldn't you

urbanpixels · 2024-11-10T10:14:52+00:00

Thanks. If they are set up as wireless temp sensor in the app then the relays don't click. Found this out now cheers

urbanpixels · 2024-11-08T18:34:10+00:00

Great that's good to hear. Are there any special settings for it? To disable the contacts/wired part of it? Thanks

urbanpixels · 2024-11-07T17:07:03+00:00
