Connection Issues (make sure):

• IP addresses of bulbs in config are correct.
• LAN Control is ON (https://www.yeelight.com/faqs/lan_control).
• You are connected to same WIFI network as your bulbs.

Other:

• For more debug ideas visit https://github.com/skorokithakis/python-yeelight
• If your bulb IP addresses keep changing you may want to set static DHCP lease on your router.
