As my DIY home project has settled and things just ... work. I've been looking for cleanups and smaller issues.
One recent discovery is a strip light I use. It's the only WiFi device in my home automation - it was left over from my old house and I was just trying to increase the GAF variable. The hub reports an exorbitant amount of total, ms use relative to everything else. (see 1st snap below)
I have already order another Sengled zigbee strip, which does a great RGBW, requires no outside web, and is one less custom driver to keep my eye on...
Not really looking to understand this or make it a complex question - but why would a wifi have such a discrepancy? I've also put the comparison of the Sengled Zigbee RGBW vs the MagicHome Wifi values below as well, which is what I will be replacing the Wifi Strip light with.
And the 3 strip lights
