Last state Power on
Will Tp-link ever add an option for off to (Last"On" State) to have the smart bulbs stay off after a power outage? It's very annoying to come home to a house with all the lights on after a power blip or at night.

I will make sure to forward the feedback, however I have suspicions that this setting is done due to how it could affect the overall experience when moving or reconfiguring a plug. Without the light turning on from power, the bulb may look different while being reset. I will see if there is a reason that this is not available, or if there is another way that this behavior could be limited.
As odd as it is, if you have a light that is never turned on, you could actually configure a smart action to look for that light to turn on and then execute a smart action to restore your lights to an off state. I have also seen others set this to 1%, just to make it less jarring when the lights do turn on.

Thanks
Setting it to 1% still means the light will be on if the power blips or goes out and is restored. It seems like this has been requested for a long time with no resolution. I would prefer the light bulbs to return to the state it was on when the power went out even if that state was off, espcially if I am sleeping. No one likes to be awakened if the power blips in the middle of the night by all the lights being on.
