It's probably a long shot at this point, since these devices are Bluetooth as far as I know, but any chance that de C by GE Light Bulbs will be supported at some point? Or does anyone know of a custom driver that already does?
HE doesn't have a Bluetooth radio. So, you'd need a "man-in-the-middle" setup with some other device communicating with the bulbs.
Yes that makes sense. All my Google Home speakers have Bluetooth and that's how they actually communicate with those C by GE bulbs (they're the ones that come in the Google Home Mini/Smart Lighting starter kits). Any way to exploit that?
Yes, you can use assistant relay to issue commands to your Google connected devices. But, it's not going to be as fast as a regular switch. I don't know if you're going to like it for lights. I would personally only use it for stuff like a roomba or something like that.
If you do a search here on the forum for Assistant Relay you can find the driver from @ogiewon. I'd post it for you but I'm on my phone.
I see. Hmm interesting. I mainly want to use it to turn on my bedroom lights (that happen to be those C by GE bulbs) if one of my contact sensors gets opened during the night (ie my house gets broken into) to wake me up. I probably don't care if that takes a second to happen.
Ok thanks. I'll find it.
Here you go...
Thank you. Looks like I need to get myself another Raspberry Pi I guess I can try to install it on my Home Assistant one first.....
Just be sure to use Node v8. The newer versions of Node do not work with Assistant-Relay. Also, IPv6 is also known to cause issues.
Just found out today that you can control c by ge bulbs through Google Home. Does anyone know if we can integrate into Hubitat now?
Read the thread above... the only way I know to control those bulbs is to use the Google Assistant Relay and issue custom commands via Google.
