- Finally got around to integrating my new Gledopto RGB Controller into Home Assistant using the Conbee II Zigbee stick. It looks amazing, works amazing and is very fun to play around with!

Very helpful.. good to see how the colour and saturation works. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for taking the time!
My pleasure!
Can you have both rgb and cool white on at the same time
Hello, thx does the power supply Come with the controller ?
Great!
Please what program works with the color bar RGB+CCT
does anybody know an alternative for Phoscon for ZHA?
Where did you get the wire connector? I have the GLEDOPTO controller and power but i cant locate those 6 wires anywhere.
For me it was included in my packaged solution I bought. Maybe you forgot to buy it? It's an additional component you need to buy.
Great tutorial.
Have you tried the tradfri zigbee controller?
Thanks a lot
I have not yet done that one. I am waiting another rgb led controller to arrive tho, so keep an eye out for that one! :)
Hi, what devices must you have in order for it to work ? Just home assistant, gledepto controller and the led strip would do ?
Home assistant and some kind of ZIGBEE controller. I use the deconz II stick to achieve this. The zigbee controller is required to controll the zigbee led controller :)
Does it need a power supply or can it be connected directly to the plug?
Thank alot for the useful tutorials.
Can this one control a light strip which is WS2812B IP65
I don't think so. It's not able to address individual LEDs
Hi, great: +1
I also have a Gledopto controller :-)
Do you have a solution to run a mood scenario? (with automatic fading of colors)
I have some kind of rainbow effect. I did this using node red and home assistant :)
Good guide thank you.
I have a problem connecting my Gledopto RGB Controller with my Conbee II,
you said in the video that it can be needed to reset it a few times, what do you mean exactly?
I have tried to unplug/plug the controllers power a few times without luck.
Cheers
It should work - I read that you need to make sure your controller is fully powered down. You may be switching too fast.
If it doesn't work I would check with some Gledopto support groups/forums
TriplusTutorials I see, thanks!
I will try the deConz help on discord. Could be interference with other 2.4GHz signals 🤔
I have the same problema, there is no way to put the controller in set mode... in my case is not RGB+CCT but the RGBW.
I fear I will need a kind of gateway to configure it, like the conbee II. Without one of those, no way.
Hi there,
The rail where you put in the RGB strip any idea if that makes it waterproof and what store did you get it in BE ? Thanks
ledstripkoning
For waterproofness - I think you should get a waterproof led strip & not a waterproof rail.
@@TriplusTutorials makes sense, but still interested waterproof or not :) I have a 5m strip laying around ready to be installed, but I prefer your method then using the tape.
A rail to put the strip in would preserve and protect the strip and make it easier to remove or replace etc.
thx
but indeed found them on their site 'Led strip profielen' wasn't aware of the naming :)
@@digitalmesh I don't think waterproof profiles exist, they might but not sure.
Hope it was at least of some help, for me I'm installing all my led strips indoor for now so no need for waterproof :)
Hello, bought the controller and led, but don't know if I need anything else to make it work.
What's the name of the software you use??? Can I use any Android app??
Thanks
As it's a Zigbee controller you would need a compatbile Zigbee hub (e.g. Ikea tradfri, philips hue, ...) I use a phoscon/deconz zigbee usb stick controlled via home Assistant for this.
@@TriplusTutorials can you add the Gledopto controller to Home Assistant without the stick? Another integration? The Gledopto is the same one in your video. It's throwing out a 2.4Ghz signal.
so it can only do one color at the time?
the full led-strip is indeed 1 color at a time. It's not used for an addressable led strip.
where can i get a connector cable like that?
Any led strip shop should have it in stock. Aliexpress/Amazon/banggood also have them. Just make sure you get a connector with the same mount of cables as your led strip (2,3,4...) channels
Is posible not view led points with any diffuser?
maybe with a very low transparency diffuser.(but you will lose light strength) But My led strip is not pointing directly up on level I view often, so the light "points" I see are limited. Try pointing your ledstrip to the floor or the wall to limit this.
Kan deze controller ook met Apple HomeKit gebruikt worden ?
Looks like you will have to take an MQTT detour (quick google search, personally I have no experience with Apple): www.reddit.com/r/HomeKit/comments/m4zex4/zigbee2mqtt_setup_homekit_integration_pi_conbee/
👍👍

What power supply did you need? 12v I'm guessing? How many amps?
12V yes. Amps will depend on the length of your LED strip. A 5M Ledstrip would require at least 6Amps if I'm not mistaken. There are calculators online that will indicate the amps you need/amount of LEDs & type :).
EDIT: running on 24V
@@TriplusTutorials Any reason you used a 12v PSU with a 24v LED strip ?
@@y0rkiebar i dont think it's a 24v strip. Bought it as a set so i assume all is well.
@@TriplusTutorials Look at the video at 3:46, shows 24v on the strip. Same at 3:52 when the copper pads are shown, 24v.
@@y0rkiebar You are a 100% correct. Seems I miss saw something when I initially replied to this comment (might have been checking a different LED strip).
Everything, including the power brick, is indeed running on 24V :)
Hello from Portugal.
Do you have a link to the product/products?
THX :)
Hi
Sorry, I got this from a site in Belgium/Netherlands, so I doubt they ship to Portugal :)
@TriplusTutorials Hi. After this I found the pack by the brand, but the site didn't have English to select the language.. 😂
Is there a tutorial on "how to connect with ALEXA"?
I do not have an alexa device, but if you want to use this controller with Alexa you need a compatible hub to do so.
If you get an Alexa device with a built in Zigbee hub (there are quite a few Alexa devices now with this) then you should be able to control the strip via Alexa. Failing that, it works with a Hue hub.
