Having a strange issue - trying to bind the Blue 2in1 switch to a ZHA light group, but just sits there spinning for ever. No error message, no binding. I’m going to the switch, then the 3 dots, ‘manage zigbee device’, then set as follows: [ibebIcE1] Am i missing something? The instructions diffe…

I’m having this problem as well. Do I still need to apply the quirk if I’m on a HA version that is showing the correct endpoints? I’ve tried with just the bulbs in the group and with the bulbs + switch in the group. I’m using 3 Philips Hue bulbs, switch is set to Dimmer + Smart Bulb mode. Edit: Nev…

It’s strange but I’m having a similar issue on ZHA and the latest updates in HAOS. I just added four hue lights to my living room and I can bind them each individually to the switch and everything works fine. But if I remove them and then try to bind the light group I don’t get any control. I noti…

Are you on 2.08? That’s expected, binding should be from the endpoint 2 on the switch to endpoint 1 of the group, got updated along the way from release. Try binding the levelcontrol and onoff 2 clusters to the group and it should work.

Awesome, this seems to have done the trick. I did bind to levelcontrol 2 the other day, just to try it and it did work but I hadn’t yet done onoff 2. They seemed to be working fine, but when I woke up early this morning I had noticed that the four Hue lights were illuminated just a little bit (…

This is great, thanks. Looks like the firmware update came out about a month ago. Strangely enough, I’ve been sitting on these lights for a few months now and just haven’t gotten around to setting them up. Had I done this months ago with no known fix, I would have just returned them and search…

Yep. SBM with scenes is your only option until you bind them to the blues.

So, I decided to switch back to having my Blue switches bound to my Hue bulbs. Everything seems to be working well, but I’ve noticed that if I turn off the Zigbee group of lights thats bound to the Blue switch, the switch stays turned on although the lights went out. Is there a way to have the…

I’m wondering this as well. I saw the mention of zhacustomquirks to get endpoint 1 to show up, and I tried that out, but still not seeing Endpoint 1 for LevelControl at all in the group. I’ve gotten things working-ish by choosing Endpoint 2 on the group, but I’m not seeing matching levels on the s…
