  • Costco Feit Color Bulb :)
  • Tuya Local API Key (Online has some good resources to obtain that)
  • Tuya Local plugin via the HACS store.

The Seemingly impossible to find settings

I struggled with this for a good while and believe I came up with the correct settings when adding this in Tuya Local, below are my notes:

Tuya Local Settings for the bulbs:

  • Brightness 3
  • Color Temp 3
  • Brightness Lower Value: 23
  • Brightness Upper Value 255
  • Color Mode 2
  • Color 2
  • Minimum Color Temp in K 2700
  • Maximum Color Temp in K 6500
  • Color Temp Reverse Unchecked
  • Scene 1
  • Music Mode Available Unchecked

Using the above settings, we have near accurate color and control of the bulbs. I'm aware that some firmware may change this as I had one new bulb I put in not match the color settings until I updated it to the most current at the time I took these notes (about 6 months ago). But I think and hope that if you are struggling with getting these to work with Home Assistant, this will help!
