This is yet another Homebridge plugin for the Elgato Key Light, Key Light Air and Ring Light. It allows you to control your Elgato lights with HomeKit while avoiding some of the issues other plugins have.
You can install the plugin either using the Homebridge Web UI or using the command line:
npm install -g homebridge-keylights
To use the plugin, it must be configured. This is a minimal working configuration:
{
"bridge": {
....
},
"accessories": [],
"platforms": [
{
"platform": "ElgatoKeyLights",
"name": "Elgato Key Light",
}
]
}
Further settings are available to configure. This is a complete configuration:
{
"bridge": {
....
},
"accessories": [],
"platforms": [
{
"name": "Elgato Key Lights",
"pollingRate": 1000,
"powerOnBehavior": 1,
"powerOnBrightness": 20,
"powerOnTemperature": 4695,

Some users have had an issue where Homebridge was unable to connect to the lights after setting the plugin up. This seems to be a common issue where the lights become unresponsive after not being polled for some time, and also happens with the official Elgato app.
As a fix, try power cycling the lights and then restart Homebridge. Usually, the lights are discovered and since the plugin polls the status of the lights regularly, they keep working. In case you are still unable to connect to the lights, try the useIP
option described in the settings.
