I don't know as I haven't tested it. I have tested with the Aurora (triangle) and Canvas (square).SearchCz wrote:Does this plugin work with the Nanoleaf Essentials A19 bulb ?
More recently, I have been having issues with my Auroras but the Canvases are OK.
It would probably need some code changes to support the A19.
Re: Nanoleaf Essentials A19
So, I added a couple of these essential A19s to the home. They work with HomeKit like a breeze ... super easy integration. Unfortunately, they don't show up in the device list through the NanoLeaf b=plugin, as you expected since they are neither Aura nor Canvas. Seems like a nice capable bulb though.autolog wrote:I don't know as I haven't tested it.

OK, I can take a hint.
I have just ordered one for testing.
Once I get it, I will schedule in some time to include support for it in the plugin.

Re: Nanoleaf Essentials A19
Unfortunately, it looks like there isn't an API available for the A19 (at the moment).
The A19 is one of the first nanoleaf devices using Thread technology.
I will do further investigation but I am not overly optimistic that it will be possible to control these lamps from Indigo (at least in the short term)

Re: Nanoleaf Essentials A19
Even if the API investigation goes nowhere, since these are HomeKit bulbs, you could use HomeKit Bridge and the virtual switch trick to control them.
1. create a virtual switch. Let's call it A19 Control.
2. Publish it to HomeKit via HKB.
3. Create a HomeKit automation that turns on the A19 any time A19 Control turns on, etc.
4. Automate the A19 Control as you normally would in Indigo.

Of course that's what I did ! Good enough for controlling off and on, but a bit clumsy when it comes to adjusting color and brightness, or incorporating into scenes. I have it set up now to cycle through an assortment of presets whenever I get an "on" command from a particular remote/loadless Insteon switch. I'll see if I can post a video of it.Different Computers wrote:Even if the API investigation goes nowhere, since these are HomeKit bulbs, you could use HomeKit Bridge and the virtual switch trick to control them.

Any good news on these A19 bulbs?
