Smart LED Bulb turning on
2017-05-26 21:36:06
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Recently, one of my smart LED bulbs has been randomly turning on. I turn the lights off (either through Alexa or through Kasa app) and in the morning one of the lights is back on. Or I will come home home from work to find it on. I thought I was accidentally hitting the KASA widget so I removed it from my phone but it still continues to turn on. I have done a factory reset on the light bulb, but it has continued. Any suggestions on how to prevent the lightbulb from turning on all by itself? (it does not turn off by itself).

A few power outages will restart the bulb or reset it. If there is no power outage, did you set schedule or enable away mode?

I had the same issue but turning it off and then updating the firmware will solve it.

I have a lousy situation now, I am 300 miles away from home and there was a 12 hour power outage. My 2 WiFi plugs have signed onto my TP Link router but 3 bulbs have not. I can see the bulbs are lit at full brightness and I can’t do anything about it. I won’t be back home for another 7 days. I will not buy another TP Link item until they have a fix for this.JonJon wrote

Rebooting/restarting your router/wifi sometimes convinces them to reconnect.

I removed then reinstalled each bulb from the app. The problem is that if you are away from your home WiFi like I was then you can’t reset the router and the bulbs stay lit. My WiFi plugs rebooted without a problem.

I have gone through your post and seen the information which you have shared here. I have seen many similar electronic products and none of them were useful. Actually now I am in a search of a smart light and think this information will be useful for me. driver is unavailable hp printer
They are good products. The glitch is only with the bulbs when the internet shuts down and reboots. I have numerous TP Link smart plugs, wall switches and bulbs. I am happy with them. It's a plus to use them with the Kasa app. I think it is more secure than having Amazon and Google devices spying on my home. They already have enough personal info on everyone. The app also helps guide you when installing devices.
I have AT&T internet and their app allows me to reboot my Wi-Fi gateway when I am not home.

hellenjos is a spammer, her comment was nonsense posted to imbed a link. At least it wasn't a porn link like one of the other spammers has posted - TP Link seems to have abandoned this forum. Considering that TP Link also runs the cloud servers that kasa uses to store your personal information you may want to rethink using it vs google or amazon... Though even then those services go through the TP Link servers (remember TP Link HQ is in a country with somewhat weaker privacy laws). If you're really concerned with privacy you need to run your own server and block the TP Link devices from reaching the internet.
