A new version of the DTH for Osram GardenSpot Mini rgb lights (based on @Sticks18’s version).
This DTH is for directly connecting the US (Z HA) versions to SmartThings.
Without the Osram Gateway, the color loop functionality does not work for the US version of the GardenSpots (at least until they update the firmware).
But using the “hueLoop” and “hueRandom” attributes of this DTH, one create a CoRE Piston to cause color loop (even random colors) Device Tile contains sliders for individual control of hue, saturation, and transition time. Device Tile also contains buttons for (1) “hueLoop” (boolean “on” / “off” values) and (2) “Random Hue” (causes hue to change to a random color). Use these in CoRE to create color loop.
Since I am still waiting for my GardenSpots to ship, could pictures be posted of the device screen in SmartThings and the Piston setup in CoRE for looping and Random.
I am really interested in the transition time and the Random Colors of this device type.
Also would getting this working with the RGBW A19 Light be as easy as just changing the finger print of the device or will the White LED not work with this handler?

I don’t think the current Default SmartThings device handler has the transition time baked in, I noted that when it changes color it is doing one, but it is doing really quickly and it looks odd.
Garden Hue only allows you to turn the lights off and on at Sunrise and Sunset with an Offset (I believe), while being able to have it run from CoRE will allow you say I want the light off at 11pm every day regardless of sunrise time.
That is why I created the device type. I wanted my lights to go on only when I opened a backyard door and then to go off after certain events / non-events.
That’s great. You’ve helped me out so many times, it’s good to return the favor.

Ok, so if I have the “hue Loop” on and I have a piston turn these on… they cycle through random colors? and I have that off they just turn on at the color I set?
