Light bulbs (lemmus.org)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by blakemavrix@lemmus.org to c/homeassistant@lemmy.world
 

Hi everyone. I recently started my Home Assistant journey by replacing Google Calendar and Keep Notes with Home Assistant. A couple of light bulbs burnt out and I want to replace them with bulbs that I can use exclusivity on Home Assistant and bypass the manufacturers app entirely. What brand should I look for?

These are standard wall mounted lights in my kitchen and my laundry room.

Edit: I'm looking to replace burnt bulbs anyway.

For people who want this, you may want to try Inovelli switches they cost a bit more than others but are very configurable, including many potential actions

So it looks and works like a standard dimmer, but perhaps you could make, say, a double click cycle through the colors.
