Bulb was working flawlessly before upgrading from 1.4.1.45 to 1.4.1.48. After upgrading I have this problem. It switches off and flickers randomly after upgrade firmware to the latest. It’s also getting warmer. It tried the following:
Unbinding the bulb and rebind it
Reseting the bulb (5*2)
Changing house, router
Uninstalling yeelight app
Installing Mi home app.
Nothing solved my problem.
Keep in mind that I have a second Yeelight Color Bulb which bought together but I didn’t upgrade it to the latest firmware and it has no problem at all.
It’s really strange, the update didn’t touch anything related to power consumption or other lighting effect related stuff.
If you don’t mind, please provide your Mi account and share your bulb (the one has issue) with Yeelight official account (mid: 147758983), we will revert your bulb to 1.4.1_45. After that, we can know whether this situation is caused by the new firmware.
Unfortunately, problem remains. The bulb switches off and changing colors randomly. It is also getting very hot.
It seems like it was a coincidence that the problem started right after upgrading.
The 2 bulbs (one has the problem) were purchased on december from the store “Geekbuying” Do I have the option to get a replacement for the problematic one?
You can contact TinyDeal to see if they will provide a refund.
Also, please make sure your are not using the bulb with a dimmer, we see same issue when customer used a dimmer.
