Just wanted to say thanks for your work on this! I had been using a bunch of cobbled together python snippets and this was what I had been looking for. Looking forward to testing...

Assuming they use the same translations from WiFi command => RF, then yes, it should work with EasyBulb. It depends on how different the two bridges are, however. Would try it, if it works out, then great! ed// It looks like their draw with EasyBulb as a product is that it has a simple API that the user can play off of. I'm not sure if it's the same exactly hardware, but I believe LimitlessLED, Mi-Light, and EasyBulb all have the same manufacturer and thus, the same hardware... so you SHOULD be safe here.

This is fantastic!

One question though, do you have any interest in adding a 'Toggle' option any time soon?

It would be awesome if I could turn the lights on and off using the same button.

One more question actually, would you consider implementing an "increase brightness" and "decrease brightness" option? That way I could map my lights to my chan+ and chan- buttons, and by holding chan+ the lights would go up, and by holding chan-, they would go down. :)

Sorry to be demanding, I'm really happy you made this plugin, it's great to be able to control my limitlessLED bulbs with my ATI Remote Wonder 1, in windows 10. :D

glad you liked it :)

i will try to do increase / decrease brightness.
as for the toggle option . u can use the cycle mode action for the specific group.
ON/OFF/ON/OFF

i guess this should do it .

i just tried it and it works

and as a temporary workaround for brightness up/down you can also use cycle action for brightness presets.

Hello _RIGHT_H,

Thank you for your work.
Now that controlling limitless bulbs has become easy, have you ever managed to reproduce soft-start and soft-stop features? I mean fading in and out during start and stop.
I haven't worked on the limitless API yet, if you have no answer I'll dig on it as soon as I have some free time.
