KS220M randomly changes to 100% brightness despite app reporting 1%
I am using several of the KS220M motion sensor dimmers. The issue I am having is that the switch sometimes turns the bulb brightness to 100% despite reporting 1% in the app (and having a smart control rule of 1%). This doesn't happen consistently but I am noticing it specifically under the following conditions:
- Smart Control Schedule rule is set to 1% brightness and app reports a 1% brightness at all times
- Switch is motion triggered or turned on manually via hardware to 1% brightness without issue
- After an unpredictable amount of time, switches sometimes (not consistently) turn lights to maximum (non-dimmed) brightness
- App still reports 1% brightness (and Smart Control Schedule is still set to 1%)
- Turning the switch off and on (both in the app and using the hardware) sometimes reproduces the above issue
- Other times, turning the switch off and on resolves the issue
I have double-checked the following:
- All switches have a decent WIFI signal (-60dBm reported in app) on modern electrical wiring (new in 2015).
- Kasa account has a strong unique password and nothing else has rules to override the lighting level
- Switches have been calibrated so the minimum brightness does not cause flickering
- Switches appear to have the correct time
- Checking the Ubquiti router logs shows that switches do not appear to be having connectivity issue
