Model: Tapo L530B  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.1.9 build 240524 rel 144922

My smart bulb keeps blinking and changing colors randomly without any pattern. Sometimes it works normally, but then it suddenly starts blinking in different colors or even turns off on its own. I don’t have any automations set up, and both the system and the app are updated to the latest version. This issue only started happening recently. My internet connection is stable at 150 Mbps.

 

The bulb is just few months old and rarely used.

Did you enable the away mode feature? How to Set up Schedule, Away Mode, and Timer for Smart Bulb in Tapo App

 

Check whether you have created any automation rules for the light bulb: Tapo app, go to the Smart tab, Automation. 
 

If your Tapo account has linked with some third-party platforms, like Alexa or Google Home, check whether there are similar automation settings (routines) on those platforms.

Try to factory reset the smart bulb, reconfigure it and give it a new name. Then monitor its performance. How to reset the Tapo smart bulb

 

How many L530 do you have? Are they all showing the same phenomena?
