Hey all, I've got a cabin with limited wiring for ceiling lights, so we currently have a solution where I have a Zooz z-wave dimmer I'd like to control a GE Enbrighten z-wave plus bulb in a hanging plug-in lamp. I'm using custom drivers for the Zooz dimmer, and the Enbrighten bulb is set up as a generic z-wave plus dimmer.
I've tried two solutions:
Direct Association - I used the UID for the bulb in groups 2 and 3 of the dimmer. It sort of works but has some strange behaviors: It slowly ramps up and down when turning on and off (I want instant on/off). It will not dim or brighten when holding the paddles. Also when turning it on it turns on the last set level (very dim) instead of 100%. I don't see where I can adjust these settings. Also the bulb flickers a bit when ramping up/down. I think I'd prefer direct accociation for the offline usage if I can get it to work.
Rule Machine - I have rules set up based on button trigger events and everything works but...
The extra wrinkle is here is I'd also like to control this light with Google Home in either scenario. Adjusting the dimmer with GH does not turn the light on. Adjusting the bulb with GH does work, but the dimmer does not update it's status.
Any help?
