Hi JD, the result are not so good! :sunglasses: The Zigbee channel of the SmartThings hub is on 24, the Hue bridge offers 11, 15, 20 & the current 25. There is no way to get 24. Funny problem. Hue bridge : [IMG_20200529_210832] SmartThings: [IMG_20200529_211024]

Therefore, I was looking for a/the roadmap and/or an official (uservoice) place to put th…
