RGBW bulb in Home Assistant?

I’ve been testing our bulbs on various platforms and have landed on the Home Assistant integration. It seems like there is some incompatibility with it and many of the z-wave RGBW devices out there (as you guys have experienced).

First off, getting the tunable white slider to show up in the interface is one obstacle. I was able to get it by adding this to my configuration.yaml file:

homeassistant:

  customize:
    # Add an entry for each entity that you want to overwrite.
    light.inovelli_lzw42_rgbw_bulb_level:
      supported_features: 19

I’m not a Home Assistant expert by any means, but I’ll keep digging. If anyone else has any suggestions, I’m open. :wink:

For open-zwave, I’ve put the config files in our github and opened a pull request against their repository. I’m pretty sure the fix to this issue isn’t related to the config files, but rather a change to be made to the core of open-zwave or Home Assistant.

Config files in our repository for manual config:
