The best-value Zigbee 3.0 colour bulb for Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA users — fully supported, entirely local out of the box, no bridge required (though it also slots into an existing Hue Bridge). At around £17 it undercuts Philips Hue's £45 E27 colour bulb by more than half, and beats WiZ's £11 Wi-Fi bulb on protocol alone — Zigbee mesh instead of one more device hogging your 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. Colour rendering (CRI >82) is a step down from Hue's Gamut C, fine for general colour and mood lighting, not colour-critical work. Best pick for anyone already on a Zigbee coordinator who wants real colour without Hue money.
What can Home Assistant control on the Innr Smart Bulb Colour E27 (RB 286 C, 806 lm)?
| Control | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Light | Light | On/off via the standard light entity created from the Zigbee2MQTT device. |
| Brightness | Light attribute (0-254) | Configurable transition time (default 0s) with move/step support for smooth automations. |
| Colour temperature | Light attribute (153-555 mired) | Named presets (coolest/cool/neutral/warm/warmest) plus a separate startup_color_temp for post-power-loss recovery. |
| Colour | Light attribute | Settable via xy, hs, or hex; colour-space sync is on by default so all three stay consistent. |
| Power-on behavior | Select | off/on/toggle/previous — controls state after a power interruption; recommended to set explicitly given reported random-activation reports on this model. |
Zigbee2MQTT exposes power_on_behavior (off/on/toggle/previous) alongside a separate startup_color_temp field, so you can pin the bulb to relaunch at a fixed warm mired value after a mains cut instead of trusting 'previous' state — worth setting explicitly, since some RB 286 C units have been reported going unresponsive after a Z2M/HA restart or flipping on unexpectedly in sync with an unrelated group switch, with no confirmed root cause from maintainers. Colour temp covers the standard 153-555 mired range with named presets, and colour can be set via xy, hs, or hex with colour-space sync on by default. The built-in colorloop and blink/breathe/okay effects can drive a status-indicator automation (e.g. blink amber when a door sensor reports open too long) without a helper script faking the flash.
