A script to control MagicLight and other cheap wifi rgb lights

magiclight.py

import socket, time
s = socket.socket()
address = ''
port = 5577
r = 0
g = 255
b = 0
keybit = "31".replace(':', '').decode('hex')
keybit += chr(r) + chr(g) + chr(b)
keybit += "00:f0:0f".replace(':', '').decode('hex')
keybit += chr(sum(bytearray(keybit))%256)
print sum(bytearray(keybit[:-1]))%256
print keybit.encode('hex')
try:
    s.connect((address, port))
    s.send("81:8a:8b:96".replace(':', '').decode('hex'))
    s.recv(1000)
    s.send("10:14:0f:08:0d:05:16:15:04:00:0f:8b".replace(':', '').decode('hex'))
    s.recv(1000)
    s.send(keybit)
except:
    print("Could Not Connect (They are finnicy!)")

This worked for me! Took a while to find the IP address. My light bulb had a hostname like HF-LPB100-ZJ####, incase anyone comes here looking for how to get the ip address. I just had to try all 20 wireless clients until I found it haha.

Thanks for this!

If you're looking for the IP Addr of the connected device you can look in the following location:

1. Click on the gear icon in the top left
2. Select device settings
3. Select the device you want to get the information for
4. Click Device Information
5. Fourth item down is the IP for that device

Also, removing lines 16 through 19 allowed the changes to the light to be almost instant. With the code listed above the delay was about a minute and caused the updates to randomly fail.
