Set dimmer strength in a numeric percentage

JerryvdvJerryvdv Member
edited August 2016 in Archive
Hi all,

I think it would be awesome to be able to set the strength of a dimmer in percentages (so actually filling in the number, either manual or by a tag) as oppose to the current slider that is available for the dimmers. 

This would in turn allow for easy flows for wake-up/sleep timed lights (i.e. through the use of countdown timers etc).

What do you all think?

    I believe this is part of the flow rewrite/extension Athom is working on at the moment.
  • JerryvdvJerryvdv Member
    @KoenMartens any idea which release it will be incorporated in?

    For which device would you like this as this should be set per device / brand by creating extra action-cards?

    I would imagine each and every device that can 'dim'.

    Devices are pretty subjective as each of us have different configurations. 

    Personally, I only have dimmable KAKU devices at the moment as I'm waiting (hoping) on z-wave dimmers that can be used for double switches and/or thinner devices (i.e. the annouced nano dimmer by Aeotec).
    So in my case, my suggestion would be to start off with KAKU.. for example the awmd-250 ;)

    @Jerryvdv Nope

    We can't alter anything on KaKu devices, the KaKu app is closed source for now...
