Philips Wiz bulbs	Works	Work very well and fast; need good WiFi Saved copy After the only HomeKit compatible bulb available in my country got taken off the market, I'd been been searching for an alternative. Just got a Philips Wiz bulb a few days ago and it is working so well, I want to replace all my Yeelight Bulbs with these. A few great things about it. Wiz app allows you to configure it without any creating an account. Can be configured to remember last state in the app Can be configured for fade-in and out on power on and off, with configurable duration. This is actually a nice effect. The Wiz Lan plugin needs no configuration and just discovers all Wiz bulbs … Excerpt saved from Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-22.	Reddit comment · 2022-05

WiZ filament bulb ESP06_SHTW1_01	Works	Same color-wheel bug as above, fixed in v3.0.1 Saved copy I have the same problem with my filament bulbs ESP06_SHTW1_01, but I had this straight from the beginning Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22.	Issue #35 · 2021-02
WiZ tunable white bulb ESP56_SHTW3_01	Works	Showed RGB color wheel wrongly; fixed in v3.0.1 Saved copy I have a very curious one @kpsuperplane, originally these TW lights (model ESP56_SHTW3_01) showed only white selections and only the temperature wheel; once selecting from the temperature wheel the menu selection now displays colours and both a colour and temperature wheel. It seems to be stuck as an RGBW light now. This has not broken anything, but definitely a bug. Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22.	Issue #35 · 2021-02
Philips Smart Wi-Fi bulbs (WiZ)	Partly works	Only on/off works; dimming and color do not. Matter is suggested instead Saved copy … shows the setting changed, however the physical light bulb will not change at all. This is true for both RGB and Tuneable White. `[2/27/2024, 2:24:07 PM] [WizSmarthome] Initializing WizSmarthome platform...

Philips WiZ Wi-Fi LED bulb 9290023833a	Partly works	Showed as light plus speaker; fixed by disabling Scene support in plugin settings Saved copy Turn off Scene support on the Wiz plugin’s settings within Homebridge. ☻ Excerpt saved from Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-22.

WiZ RGB bulbs	Partly works	HomeKit color temperature mis-translated to RGB saturation instead of white LEDs Saved copy @kpsuperplane I found out why the plugin color translation is wrong. (Not that I know how to fix it - yet.) Both the WiZ App and the Home App use separate pickers for RGB saturation settings vs. Temperature Kelvin settings. The plugin is incorrectly using Temperature in HomeKit-to-WiZ bulb translation to saturate the bulb's RGB settings instead of using the W (White) LED. For the bulb's internals, I found that maximum RGB saturation using the WiZ App color picker yields R:255, G:255, B:255, W:140. Note that no Temperature is set in RGB mode. Conversely, no RGB settings are used in Temperature … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22.	Issue #115 · 2022-08
WiZ smart plug ESP25_SOCKET_01	Not working	Identified as an Unknown Bulb since v3.2.6, can't switch as socket; user patched model check Saved copy Hello everyone, I have the following problem with a WIZ socket that is integrated in Home Bridge. This socket has worked perfectly for a long time and was correctly integrated into Home Bridge. Due to a new installation of Home Bridge, this socket now appears both as a socket and as a bulb in the Home Bridge device overview. It no longer functions as a socket and can therefore no longer be controlled.
