#Can someone check my Node-Red nodes and see why LIFX lights keep turning on by themselves?

I have two LIFX bulbs that are plugged into a power strip that is plugged into an outlet that is controlled by an ON/OFF Switch with a Shelly 1 Mini relay behind it. The Shelly 1 Mini is in Detached Mode so that when I flick the switch to ON position the light turns on. When I flick the switch to OFF position the LIFX lights turn off. Thanks to the Shelly 1 Mini being in detached mode when I change the color or intensity of the LIFX lights while the switch is OFF the color change and or intensity will be in effect when I flip the switch back on. This all works perfectly.

However, when the light is switched in the OFF position there are times throughout the day when the lights will turn on by themselves and I have no idea why.** This never happens when the switch is in the ON position.** What I mean by that is if the switch is in the ON position and the lights are ON and I use Google Home app to turn my bedroom lights off the lights will shut off. And the LIFX bulbs will stay off indefinitely until I flick the switch to OFF and then back ON. But if I leave the lights off while the switch is in the OFF position the lights will eventually turn ON by themselves and I have no idea why. This will happen every day. I have deleted all schedules in the LIFX app to make sure it isn't the LIFX app commanding the lights on. Help please 🙏

Hi, I'm misunderstanding maybe, but you have Shelly 1 Mini and dump switch on SW + wiring with bulb? If so, no need automation in node red. Only call toggle on Shelly.

And smart bulb must be permanently connected - if you disconned it with Shelly, you miss bulb as smart device from your smart home...
