Bug Report Details

Upgrading to 5.54 made my lights flicker, downgrading back to 5.53 resolved the issue. No settings were changed between upgrade/downgrade. I use Z-Wave JS in Home Assistant for the upgrade / downgrade.

How To Reproduce

Upgrade firmware, turn lights on, see flicker.

@DaDre Hey there, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Nothing wrong with downgrading to 5.53; this is what we would recommend doing in this case actually.

5.54 was the exact same firmware as 5.53 with the exception of changing dimming performance to enhance compatibility with newer bulbs. This may have adversely affected performance with older bulbs as a consequence and this might be what you're seeing in your use case.

Rest assured, there were no other changes to the firmware so you will not lose any performance or functionality if you decide to remain on version 5.53.
