Finally got all three H801 flashed and up and running! A HUGE thanks to @michaelahess for helping me get the flash process going. It really isn’t hard if you could see how all the cable connects are done. I ended up making a video to help out those like myself that have never worked with ESP firmware updates. I really needed something to hold my hand through the process so maybe this video will do that for someone else the way Michael did with me. (Firmware updating transfer starts around 7:00 in tutorial. )
Unbelievable awesome job @erocm1231 on the device handler and smartapps. So very impressive my friend! first video I posted before the tutorial above . It doesn’t show all the details of setup but was intended to show what the flashing looks like on your computer when you …
Might I suggest for those that do not care to buy extra stuff, or reflash their device to simply Use IFTTT?
The MagicHue IFTTT app connects your Magic Home app, and you can make an applet that uses a virtual switch in ST to control the actions of the LED Strip.
I searched for a long time and was nearly ready to purchase an adapter and learn how to reflash my LED Strip controller so I could use ST to control it. (If you’re curious on that)
I was just about ready to pull the trigger when I thought to check IFTTT to see if maybe there was a free & easier way to do this. AND THERE WAS!
IFTTT Magic Hue.
Just create a virtual switch in Smart Things, and in an IFTTT applet use that switch to control your LED Strip Controller.
Voila. time and money saved.
So in summary. Devices that use Magic Home Pro
can be controlled directly with ST by using IFTTT Magic hue.
