The only smartbulb feature I need is dusk-to-dawn for my porch lights, and I found lightbulbs that actually have it builtin.
Good old electronics that don't depend on the cloud.
I did this with a string lights, a smart plug, and a home assistant 'sun' integration
The first thought into my head was that you're somehow doing PWM by directly switching mains electricity.
Fancy. I just have a dumb switch that does it offline with any bulb. No dimming, though
I do this with a USB relay, it doesn't use any radio communication but the downside is it requires some rewiring
I just have my porch lights hooked up through The Clapper and my computer uses a local weather feed to trigger sundown mode and play a clap sample through my Bluetooth speaker array.
/S, but now I kinda want to do it.
