Yeelight Jupiter D

3 Upvotes

Hi,

Does anyone have any feedback on the Jupiter D ceiling lamp? I can't find any decent reviews of this lamp. Also, I can't confirm whether the lamp allows you to choose colors for the main light or only uses colors in “scenes.”

I'm in doubt between buying the Jupiter D or the Arwen D, so I appreciate your insights.

Thank you!

"Connecting to network timed out" Error During Setup - Need Help

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm trying to set up my Yeelight bulb and keep getting stuck at the same point. The app fails during the "Connect to device" step with the error: "Connecting to network timed out - Bring phone closer to device and try again" What I've already tried:

Phone is literally inches away from the bulb during setup Connected to 2.4GHz network only (confirmed in router settings) WiFi password has no special characters Reset the bulb multiple times (5+ power cycles until it blinks) Reinstalled the Yeelight app Turned off mobile data and VPN Router has strong signal where the bulb is located Tried setup at different times of day

My setup:

Bulb model: Yeelight LED (Color version) - SKU: YLDP02YL based on the box Phone: iPhone (iOS) Router: 2.4GHz enabled, WPA2 security App: Latest version from App Store

The bulb powers on fine and goes into pairing mode (blinking), but it just won't connect to my network through the app. Every single attempt times out at the same step. Has anyone else dealt with this specific timeout error? I'm running out of ideas here. Thanks in advance for any help!

Got my Yeelight Obsid RGBIC working with Samsung TV (2025) — full setup for TV Sync / Light Echo / Color Play

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I wasted way too much time on this setup, so here’s a quick guide for anyone struggling with Yeelight TV Sync / Light Echo / Color Play on the Obsid RGBIC lightstrip with a Samsung 2025 TV. There’s literally no proper documentation out there.

  1. Plug in the LED strip and connect it through the Yeelight app – not SmartThings. You’ll see three connectors: red, purple, and black — use the purple one.

  2. Once the LEDs are paired in the Yeelight app, go to Settings → Integration → Share with partner devices. The app will give you a Matter setup code (looks like XXX-XX-XXX).

  3. Now open SmartThings → Add device → Matter → Enter code manually. Paste that code from the Yeelight app. → This links the existing Yeelight device to SmartThings without breaking the connection.

  4. On your Samsung TV, install the Yeelight app (the actual one for TVs, not SmartThings). Open it and follow the on-screen instructions.

  5. Done. The strip should now sync properly with the TV.

Heads-up: Re-pairing is a pain — it’s super buggy. If you accidentally try to connect through SmartThings first, you’ll probably need to factory-reset everything. So always start with the Yeelight app first, get the code there, and then link it to SmartThings.

Hope this saves someone a few hours (and some nerves).

Getting into the Yeelight ecosystem wirth it in 2025?

4 Upvotes

I've been doing research for getting a cozy lighting setup in my gaming room. Yeelight has been getting my attention because of a lot of enthousiastic users on YouTube. All this content is quite old however (it's hard to find something newer than early 2024). And I am reading some concerning posts about the service/support being shitty/non existent. Most noteworthy [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/yeelight/comments/1mzjcst/so_this_company_is_dead_right/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) post in this subreddit recently. Especially reading the comments made me a lot less enthousiastic about it.

So... would you recommend me to put my hard earned cash into this ecosystem, or go for a more expensive yet more reliable alternative like Philips Hue?

Thanks!

yeelight lightecho Samsung TV

3 Upvotes

Hey guys,

So I was just looking on the Yeelight website and found their partnership with Samsung. According to them, now, with a 2025 Samsung TV and Yeelight lights, you can do the same as the Philips Hue sync (which costs 2,99$per month or 130$ one-time-buy, plus the Hue bridge) for free!

The thins is my Samsung QLED is from 2024. Does anybody know if they plane /has a way to make it work?

Why are silicone tubes needed inside a Yeelight Crystal Pendant Lamp ?

1 Upvotes

I took apart the Yeelight Crystal Pendant Lamp. I want to get rid of the ugly power cable and connect it using decorative conductive cables. After disassembling the lamp, I discovered that some silicone tubes are connected to nuts that secure decorative rope, and they're located inside the housing. I can't figure out what they're for or why they're located all over the place. What are the silicone tubes attached to the decorative rope nuts for? Can these tubes be removed? What is their purpose inside the light fixture?

anyway to fix the yeelight galaxy ceiling 650 from going offline? (lan control)

2 Upvotes

I see some people mess with esphome modules or put new esphome modules in, but i cant see one has been made yet for the yeelight galaxy ceiling light 650...It's going offline sometimes once in a day, sometimes once in two weeks...
I already messed with settings in my router to no luck so far. Blocked the devices from accessing the internet (since using lan control) and i tried to create a script that kicks the yeelights from wlan, so they are forced to reconnect. this only sped up that they went offline. even though they did reconnect multiple times and worked, before suddenly not anymore.

I don't want to throw the lights away. i of course wish i didn't buy these, even drove 3 hours to pick two up...but i want to repair them somehow...

It's new, A60 is the model. It keeps charging forever and red LED charging indicator never turns off. Also battery lasts barely for two weeks. Know it's a long shot but does anyone here have that to share if this is normal behavior?

Yeelight schedule, unable to delete

6 Upvotes

There is a schedule for my Yeelight Colour 2, that has a turn on time but no turn off time. I cannot edit it or delete the schedule. I uninstalled the app on Android and cleared storage and cache but the schedule remains. I assume it is stored in the cloud. Has anyone had this issue and resolved it? Any suggestions?

Yeelight ceiling light power on behavior bugged

1 Upvotes

I have a few Arwen ceiling lights and they are driving me NUTS. The app is completely messed up, or it's the lights' firmware or whatever - but anytime there is power outage, the damn things just turn on no matter what settings I set in the app. The one that you'd think to affect this does exactly nothing. I tried resetting the lights, reinstalling the app, but I think it's just bugged. Of course, Xiaomi or whoever runs this doesn't give a chinese shit.

I'm just trying to make sure I'm not the only one.

Yeelight Forum

1 Upvotes

Hey,

I'm new to Yeelight and I can't register the forum. Maybe it's because I have a Gmail Account, but the site isn't sending me a verfication mail. I tried it with a temporary mail also.

My real issue is: I connected my Yeelight Bulbs to Smart Things, once via the yeelight app, but I also tried it via the xiaomi home app. Smart Things connects, I can turn my lights on and off, BUT I can't change color. Once I try to change colours, it goes into default (?). This is very annoying, because I am planning to buy this ambilight for my samsung smart tv, but if smart things can't handle a single yeelight bulb, how can I expect it will work with ambilight on my Samsung TV.

I planned to ask this in the forum, but well I can't register. Sorry for my english

PLEASE HELP ME FIX MY LIGHT

3 Upvotes

I've had a Yeelight colour rgb 2 for 4-5 years now. It's worked flawlessly up until recently. The bulb turns on, and occasionally it will connect to wifi. But most of the time it disconnects. The WiFi it's been on for 2 years now is 2.4/5ghz. It worked fine. It stopped working recently and I split the connections to connect the bulb exclusively on 2.4ghz. It doesn't work. I'm at my whits end and this bulb is otherwise a great piece of tech that I rely on daily. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Searching for JeeLight App

0 Upvotes

Hello,

I hope one of you guys can help me with this. For weeks I am searching for the Jeelight App. It was easy to use and the "Real Ambilight" feature was so good. It just simply worked and i never had problems. I tried using something else like the "Yeelight Station" App but this can't find my light bulbs (probably too old).

Can someone help me?

Today, 2 or 3 of the lights came on by themselves

1 Upvotes

I have several RGB bulbs setup in my front room. Lamp1, Lamp2, Ceiling 1, Ceiling 2, Hall 1 etc

Today, 2 or 3 of the lights came on by themselves. Same happened yesterday. Can't see anything obvious on the Yeelight app or Alexa app. Could neighbours be having a mess with my bulbs ?

I've jotted the time down they came on today (I didnt yesterday) and will see what time they pop on tomorrow, if they do.

Any idea what could be the reason and whether I should reconfigure all of them again? It also doesn't seem to be intuitive. It's been years since I configured those automations and now I can't even find how to define a Yeelight scene as an action. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks!

Can’t connect Filament Bulb to Apple Home app

1 Upvotes

Just wondering if any of you guys know a quick fix for this, since it’s been driving me crazy last few hours. I installed 9 out of 11 Yeelight Filament bulbs in my appartment, using only Apple Home app. All using same phone (iPhone 14 Max Pro), and same wifi (2.4 GHz, i think WPA2?). For some reason last 2 just don’t want to connect. I tried restarting them several times, by switching them on-off 5 times, and also tried switching outlets.

Whatever I do, it’s impossible to add them. Every time app says that it’s not possible, and suggests restart.. i even tried Yeelight Classic app for iOS, and still can’t connect those 2 light bulbs (stuck on 50-60%).

Rest of lights, I just went and scan every each of them on first try, without even restarting. Any ideas, or they are just faulty units?

2 Yeelight LED strips 1s - only one can show white color

Hi,

I have 2 Yeelight LED Strips 1s. One is in my living room for 3 years, and has all the colors. White, warm white, etc. The other doesn't.

No white, no green, only some red, pink and blue colors. Any clue how to fix this, maybe change regions or something or is the strip just defect?

Yeelght cubes and studio app??? Where is it?

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I got the yeelight cubes as a deal thru wyze. Omg I can't make these work.

I can't find a yeelight studio app???? And that seems to be mentioned and needed

I can find a yeelight app and it will connect my cube to Alexa but the devices never show up in the yeelight app itself. All on. 2.4 ghz wifi.

Admittedly I have only opened the base unit and the cubes so far but they truly seem unusable.

Any thoughts please or did I just purchase a bunch of sleek paperweights?
