Hue Bulbs direct to Hubitat. Power on options?

This very likely is configured in the firmware of the hue hub and therfore the firmware version of the bulb probably won't be helpful unless you are using the hue hub. Hopefully I'm wrong here but I think what youi want would need to be handled by an app and that app would need to know when there is power outage.

Before Hue made the power on changes, I had the exact problem in my bedrooms and the fix took 2 steps to resolve. I had to setup a way to know when there was a power outage and then set the Hue bulbs to what they were before the power was cut. My solution did/could not prevent the bulbs from turning on, but at least they would turn of a couple of seconds later on their own.

I no longer use the app I created but it is located here:

For power outage detection, there are a few option depending on your skillset
