Not namedWorksQuality top; six-year-old strip still works great

Hue. One of them is about 6 years old and still works great. Outdoors I use Innr because they're cheaper. They work okay but I had them both replaced under warranty. One of the two power adaptors isn't waterproof anymore, which caused issues. Probably because of the Sun but it isn't supposed to happen.

… to 0.91 (even updating to 0.92 haven't fixed it) i recognized some strange behavior within the homekit app when changing the color of my yeelight and hue led stripes. color changes to the chosen color and immediately turns back to white. changing color in the web front or HA iOS app is no problem and is working. hue bridge is implemented with the integration feature and yeelight is being auto discovered. in the log i got following error: Unable to update bulb status: {‘code’: -1, ‘message’: ‘client quota exceeded’} any idea, please!?

Works in HA; HomeKit colour temp mapping wrong

The problem Trying to use the light in Homekit, in this case, a led strip, when selecting the color temp it just uses the RGB led and not the white LEDs. When I set the color temp using home assistant I lose the capability to dim the light on Homekit, but still can turn it on /off. The light is represented as red on the home app, and if I try to change the brightness it changes the color of the light also.
