What am I missing here?

I have a zigbee light on my dresser that has the level controlled by mode lighting. For the past few months the initial turn on after a mode change is at the correct level and then it changes to 100%. A simple off and on will get it back to the correct level but why does it go to 100 to begin with? Even my mode lighting does not set 100%. This is a C7. Here are some details:

Doesn't matter what app triggers the light for this to occur and again it only happens the first time it's turned on after a mode change has occurred. Yes I can control it with Alexa but the option there for hunches is turned off.

From the device events, it looks like the bulb driver is automatically setting it to 100% - is there a setting that could be doing this?

@Sebastien

is there a setting that could be doing this?

Agreed - this is most likely the culprit.

@tivomaniac Please share a screenshot of the device details page for this light, including all of its user settings.

[tivomaniac]

Doubtful. I have a bunch of these and it's the only one doing it.

Have you tried it with the "Enable level pre-staging" off?

[tivomaniac]

It was that way I turned it on to see if it would make a difference. It worked fine for years but a few months ago started doing this. Tossed a band aid rule in earlier today to just turn the light on for a couple seconds and then off when modes change to hopefully flush the one cycle out. Will see if that works today. Not ideal but...

[tivomaniac]

Also realized the bottom part of the device page wasn't there...

I could try a different driver but it's the same driver on all my Sengled bulbs.

[tivomaniac]

Changed it to use the legacy driver. Will see if that makes a difference.

[tivomaniac]

Other driver made no difference. Dunno. Very odd.
