Openlight is an open source alternative for milight gateway based on an arduino nano (clone).
Based on Henryk Plotz research : https://hackaday.io/project/5888-reverse-engineering-the-milight-on-air-protocol

Milight bulbs are not controlled using WIFI, it uses its own protocol on 2.4Ghz.

Our arduino will directly control the light bulbs using nrf24l01+ radio modules without using the WIFI gateway.

Tactile switchs are not mandatory, you can use it to turn on/off a lamp.
You need to add the code of your lamp in the code, last hexadecimal values will be ignored as it is updated incrementally:

/info : display name:port

When a code is received it will be displayed as

Enter a previously received code to send it

• Check http://pdf.libre.ovh for more information.

• Copy arduino/libraries into your arduino sketchbooks
• Upload arduino/openlight_gateway/openlight_gateway.ino

• 1 Arduino nano (ch340g): 2.50EUR
• 1 nrf24l01+ (radio module) : 1EUR
• 2 Tactiles switchs : 2EUR

Cost : 5.50EUR

nrf modules use 3.3V not 5V, pins are 5v tolerant
