OK - it's live! _https://github.com/taburineagle/Neweer-PythonLite_

I was curious about that too, it would be great if the light could send the current state it's in when first launching, mode, hue, brightness, battery, etc., but I...

Hmm, interesting - so is the value you're reading back from that characteristic parroting back the last value you wrote to it?

OK, theoretically, if you write read_request `78 84 00 FC` to the main characteristic `69400002-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA99`, the notify characteristic `69400003-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA99` replies with the channel information `78 01 01 03 7D` -...

Here's a look at those in nRF Connect, for an SL-80 - I haven't checked the other lights I have to confirm if they also have these characteristics, but I...

Hmm - this is for a completely different device, but uses the same BT characteristics - [http://en.abluetech.com/uploads/soft/202007/PTR5610-S_PS_EN_V2.2.pdf](http://en.abluetech.com/uploads/soft/202007/PTR5610-S_PS_EN_V2.2.pdf) 

That'd be interesting to find out, I'm guessing that's probably set in the firmware, but they might be able to tweak things using the AT commands. Ha, that might be...

Also, I have seen some lights on Neewer's website that have more than the 9 preset scenes available. I can't remember which one, but I saw one that had at...

**I think I _may_ have figured out how to read the light power status!** It needs some testing though... the bytestring `78 85 00 FD` changes the value reported from...

@ratmice - Right! I've actually implemented that in [NeewerLite-Python](https://github.com/taburineagle/NeewerLite-Python) -  `78` is the hex that all commands, both send and receive, start with for Neewer lights `02` is power...
