    The inclusion error was almost certainly due to your phone being on 5ghz and the shelly being on 2.4ghz. If you force them both on the same 2.4ghz network inclusion works every time (this is actually a really common problem with all ESP8266 based home automation devices, not just shellies).

      Awesome, thanks! I still have my other 2 Shellies to pair, so I'll test that out and record my experience. I'm still in my infancy and have a flat network and need to add another layer for IoT which I imagine will add its own set of problem-solving opportunities. Thankfully, I subscribe to you from my personal account and can easily find advise on that. =)

      Would you happen to know if a breathing effect is achievable with the Shelly? Your videos about the Shellys are what got me started down this IOT path. Thanks.

    Enjoyed the video, I had similar issues setting up cabinet lights with RGBW2, and just started with MQTT and Node Red. Perfect timing!!

      I'm about to start working on some under-cabinet lighting with addressable LEDs and an ESP8266 running WLED. That project will take a while but I hope to share as I learn and prep for it.
      I'd love to hear how your cabinet lights turn out with the RGBW2!

    Big Thanks for this one, I built my first Node Red/MQTT flow and got some RGB LED strips working! Keep doing what you are doing!!!!

    Man u are great!! I was fighting against my shelly about 3 months, now works perfect :)

      So glad to hear it! I'm playing with some NodeMCUs for individually addressable LED projects, but I've got these Shelly's staring at me begging for more projects :)

    I liked this video, because it was on a basic level, thanks!

    I don't have the MQTT item in the settings at all. FW is up to date. Can you advise me how to solve this?

    MQTT Explorer is also available for Linux. If you don't want to use HomeAssistant I recomment using Docker and containers for mqtt, Node-Red and all the other Services you like to use. Cheers!

    How do you install this one

    Reagrding using Shelly app, my experience is that the setup works until the next shelly firmware upgrade. After a couple of months my Shelly devices became no longer reachable in HA. At the end, I changed the firmware to Tasmota in all my shelly devices. There is no problem since the change.

    How about a breathing effect? The shelly app is very limited with its effects.

    • @ChasingSquirrels
      @ChasingSquirrels  4 года назад

      I haven't found a good breathing effect, I'm going to play a bit with MQTT and see what I can find. It seems as though sending the "turn": "off" command actually fades out and "turn":"on" fades in, so it might not be too difficult to fake a breathing effect, it would just be a little resource intensive if I wanted to keep it up. I think at that point I may want to look into a different type of programmable controller.

      I finally posted a review of all the effects, I didn't show my attempt at scripting the breathing effect (I failed after many attempts, so I can share what doesn't work =P ), but using an ESP2866 and WLED it has all kinds of great effects including a breathing effect.
      Here's the demo of all the effects it comes with though, although it sounds like you already know all of these:

    I was just thinking that maybe you could make a script that would pull information from the internet like local time based on zipcode location and have the led lights adjust every day at sunset cause sunset changes everyday. I got that idea from some nightbot commands for twitch.
    Ohhh that would be neat. have a command to change lights from people in chat on twitch (!changeled)

    • @ChasingSquirrels
      @ChasingSquirrels  4 года назад

      Definitely some neat ideas, I’ll play with the sunset changing the color first, since I think I know a few ways to do that. I may see if I can at least have it change colors at some point if there’s a new RUclips comment. 👍
