Last night i bought 3 ikea tradfri gu10 bulbs, and whenever i try to connect them to zigbee2mqtt it always connects two of them, but not all three. Everytime I’ve tried its a different combination, but i can never get all three of them to connect. Ive even tried connecting them separately but no luck. What to do? Have i hit some sort of limit on how many devices i can have in zigbee2mqtt?

#

Ive added a smart switch that i had laying around and it connected with no problems, so it cant be an issue with z2m

I'd enable herdsman debug logging and try again. Maybe the device is dead.

The device cant be dead; it connects to home assistant with no problems. The weird thing is that its never all three that connect, only two of them, and its never the same

native knoll I'd enable herdsman debug logging and try again. Maybe the device is dead.

How do you enable that?

Now enable pairing model try to pair and watch the logs for hints what happens.

Nothing…

#

You said it can't be dead because it pairs to HA. What did you mean by this?

#

I mean is that the bulb gets recognized by zigbee2mqtt and gets interviewed and added to home assistant

#

But here it doesn’t recognize the bulb at all
