Hi Travis,

I will get one of these delivered tomorrow [(https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07LBQYLTH/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)]

It might be a bit of a leap without you having one but how would you expect the ESP Home code to need to change for these?

Thanks

I copied the lohas_cct.yaml exactly. I updated the Wifi information and the mqtt information (though I would prefer not to use mqtt with ESPhome). Compiled the yaml and tried to upload to the bulb through the firmware page on Tasmota and keep getting an error saying "Upload Failed Not compatible".

Any thoughts?

Hi I updated my lohas warmwhite lamps recently after the release of esphome 1.20. Unfortunatly all of them are dead after the update. they give a short flicker, no wifi or even captive portal. so sth seems to go wrong. no issues before that with other esphome versions.
I use a barebone version of your lohas_cw_ww.yaml, so nothing special here. so be warned and if anyone has any ideas I would be glad.

Using the ESPHome code, I'm just getting the light barely flashing on and then back off regardless of what I do. Any suggestions on what could be done?

Upgraded Lohas Color bulbs to ESPHome v1.15, after upgrade the white and color values are no longer controlled separately. I was able to downgrade back to v1.14.5 to restore.

I used your guide and I have the LOHAS RGBW bulbs in Home Assistant 0.109.6 without much fuss...so thanks for that!

I was wondering if there is a way to get the "warm white" effect with these same bulbs. Normally I just want a normal 40 - 60w warm white effect in my bedroom, but sometimes I also want to be able to change the color. IS that possible?

@digiblur
I am a Newbie and I would like to commend you on your utube video explaining tuya convert and ESPHome yaml for the Lohas bulbs. They were at a perfect level for my understanding! I have a Lohas br30 and 6" downlights which both have an additional channel of CW which I was able to get running by modifying your code as follows:

copychan.h
`using namespace esphomelib::output;

class CopyOutput : public FloatOutput {
public:
FloatOutput *channel_a;
FloatOutput *channel_b;
FloatOutput *channel_c;

void write_state (float state) override {
channel_a->set_level (state);
channel_b->set_level (state);
channel_c->set_level (state);
}
};
`

lohasbr30.yaml
`my9231:
data_pin: GPIO13
clock_pin: GPIO15
num_channels: 6
num_chips: 2
update_on_boot: TRUE

output:

• platform: my9231
  id: output_blue
  channel: 3
• platform: my9231
  id: output_red
  channel: 5
• platform: my9231
  id: output_green
  channel: 4
• platform: my9231
  id: output_cw1
  channel: 0
• platform: my9231
  id: output_cw2
  channel: 1
• platform: my9231
  id: output_cw3
  channel: 2
• platform: custom
  type: float
  lambda: |-
  auto *copy = new CopyOutput();
  copy->channel_a = id(output_cw1);
  copy->channel_b = id(output_cw2);
  copy->channel_c = id(output_cw3);
  return {copy};
  outputs:
  • id: cw
    `

However I cannot figure out how to make the bulb turn on to the previous setting after switching off and on with the normal light switch per Tasmoto operation. I tried both TRUE and FALSE for the update_on_boot setting to no avail and cannot find anything else in the ESPHome documentation. Is this an issue or just a Newbie user error?
