> [@PaN13k](#): > > I bought the RF21K WIFI RGBW 5pin Odd, I have about the same one that works. But there seems to be minor technical differences between the controller causing some to work and other not to work. I have implemented it with a specific configuration that worked for my controllers but appearantly does not for all. Do you have any technical skills? You should read up on this issue and what you could do to fix it: [Whenever changing light color on Light instance, only first change occurs. · Issue #10 · jangxx/node-magichome · GitHub](https://github.com/jangxx/node-magichome/issues/10#issuecomment-456430624) If you are able to find the configuration that works for you I can implement this in the Homey app. ---

Unfortunately not technical enough. No idea where to begin. ---

I’m afraid there is not much more I can do without having the actual device. ---

Have you tried pairing it as controller already? Might work. If it doesn’t it’s gonna be hard for me to implement without owning such a bulb. ---

Hi guys, I need some advise. I ordered myself a magic Home rgbww controller with 5 meters of leds. But I don’t know what kind of power adapter I need. Can someone tell me wich adapter I need? I see it can use 192 watt (?!) and with 12v it should be 16 amp? Do I really need such a huge adapter? I think I only use 3 meters of the Ledstrip. So, do I only need 3/5 of that power? ---

On Aliexpress, an [RGBW](https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/5050-RGB-Led-Strip-5M-60Leds-M-RGBW-RGBWW-5050-LED-Tape-12V-RGB-White-RGB/32785684034.html) LED strip with 60 LED’s per meter requires 2.88W per meter, so in your case, that would be (roughly) 9W for a length of 3m. The 192W is a _maximum_ rating, not a _required_ rating (although I wouldn’t suggest running that amount of current through such tiny devices). ---

Thanks! So a 1 ampaire 12v adapter would be enough I think? ---

It depends on the type of LED tape you have. If it’s 60 LED’s a meter, 12V/1A sounds fine. But there are also LED tapes with more or less LED’s per meter. Especially when there are more, you’ll need more A. ---

It’s with 60 led a meter. So thanks! ---

Hi, does anybody else have the issue that since the 2.0.5 update of this week after a while (8 hours) the connection from homey to the LEDs is lost? Strangest thing is that the Magic App itself works, however homey gives a time out. And when I reset the LEDs to factory and add them again to homey it works for about 8 hours or so, next day it will fail again Any pointers on what I could try? ---

I had the same problem, my solution was to give them a static ip adress in my router. Since then i didnt had problems with it. ---

I’ll push an update to the app store that should fix this issue and that will update the IP address if it sees it has been changed. It’s still better to use static IP addresses though. ---

super! I had already switched the led strip to a static IP, but I’ll change it back in a few days to check if the update did solve it [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-magic-home-led/1750.md?page=1) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-magic-home-led/1750.md?page=3)
